Abstract:
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of the ambulation training on the typical hemiplegic gait in community.Methods50 stroke patients with typical hemiplegic gait were divided into two groups: treatment group was treated with systematic rehabilitation training, 5 times each week for 3 months, and control group accepted self-walking training. The follow-up was performed every week at home. The two groups were assessed by the timed "up & go" test, the Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA) and Satisfaction with Life Scale(SWLS).ResultsThe scores of the timed "up & go" test, FMA, and SWLS showed that there weren't significant difference between the treatment group and the control group 1 month after treatment; but the scores in the treatment group were obviously higher than those in the control group 3 months after treatment.ConclusionAmbulation training could improve the typical hemiplegic gait and quality of walking of stroke patients with hemiplegic gait in community.
