About this study

Official title: Immediate Effects of Lower Limb Loading Training During Sit-to-stand and Stepping With and Without External Feedback in Ambulatory Individuals With Stroke

  1. Are there differences in weight-bearing (WB) and WB symmetry immediately following STS and stepping training with or without using external feedback in ambulatory patients with stroke?
  2. Are there differences in mobility immediately following STS and stepping training with or without using external feedback in ambulatory patients with stroke?
Read the detailed description

Subjects are patients with stroke, the age of over 40 years to 74 years, both males and females who are able to walk independently at least 10 meters. Most of them will be recruited from a tertiary rehabilitation center and communities. Subjects have to participate in STS and stepping training with and without using the external feedback for 1 time/condition with a wash-out period for 2 weeks (crossover design). The outcomes will be measured in terms of WB ability during STS and stepping, walking speed, and balance ability.

The primary outcomes were WB ability on the affected limb and WB symmetry. Secondary outcomes were walking speed and balance ability.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • WB Training with external feedbackOther

    WB during sit-to-stand and stepping with external feedback, follow by overground walking.

  • WB Training without external feedbackOther

    WB during sit-to-stand and stepping without external feedback, follow by overground walking.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Weight-bearing (WB) ability and WB symmetry

    Measured: Prior to and immediately after complete training program in one session

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Walking speed using the 10 meter-walk test (10MWT)

    Measured: Prior to and immediately after complete training program in one session

  2. Dynamic balance control using the Timed up and go test (TUGT)

    Measured: Prior to and immediately after complete training program in one session

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing WB Training with external feedback and WB Training without external feedback in people with Stroke, run by Khon Kaen University at 1 site in Thailand.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Thailand. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Weight-bearing (WB) ability and WB symmetry (time frame: Prior to and immediately after complete training program in one session). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04192240, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Apr 2022.
