What is being measured

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

  1. Turning performance

    Using a turning characteristic evaluation system to evaluate the swing time, stance time, turning speed, and stride length of the participants during turning

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 week

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Balance

    Berg Balance Scale Limits of stability (LOS) using NeuroCom Smart Balance Master (NeuroCom International, Clackamas, OR)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 week

  2. Strength

    Using handheld dynamometer

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 week

  3. Straight walking performance

    Using GAITRite system (CIR system, Inc, Havertown, PS) calculate walking speed, cadence, swing time, stance time, and step length

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 week

  4. Timed up and go test

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 week

  5. Falls Efficacy Scale International (Chinese)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 week

  6. Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) Taiwan version

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Impairment-specific and augmented intervention and Conventional physical therapy in people with Stroke, run by National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2021. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Yea-Ru Yang (+886228267279, yryang@nycu.edu.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Turning performance (time frame: Change from baseline at 4 week). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 22 Jun 2021.
