About this study
Official title: Effects of Postural and Kinesthetic Awareness on Static Standing Balance and Planter Pressure by Using PoData Stabiliometric Plate in Stroke
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to check the effects of postural and kinesthetic awareness on static standing balance in chronic stoke patients. Participants will be divided into two equal groups. One group will receive routine physical therapy while other group will receive postural and kinesthetic awareness in addition to routine physical therapy.
Read the detailed description
To determine effects of Postural and kinesthetic awareness on plantar pressure and static standing balance in chronic stroke patients. The study was conducted at the University of Lahore Teaching Hospital in the Department of Pediatric Physical Therapy \& Neuro Rehabilitation Center. Total 62 stroke patients with visual spatial neglect were enrolled in this study, patients were equally assigned into control and experimental group. Control group received routine physical therapy while experimental group received routine physical therapy and postural and kinesthetic awareness program. Static component of berg balance scale and PoData Stabiliometeric plate was used for measurement of balance and plantar pressure respectively

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Postural and Kinesthetic AwarnessOther
Also called Experimental Group
Firstly, patient performed therapeutic activities/exercise to achieve balance in sitting position using chair with arm rest and with planted feet then progressed to sitting on chair without arm rest with proper feet placement. Once the patient achieved balance in sitting on chair then shifted to sitting on the stool and later standing in parallel bar that leads to balance training in independent standing.
Routine Physical TherapyOther
Also called Control Group
Range of motion exercises (Active assisted), stretching exercises, strengthening and positioning.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Routine Physical Therapy | Active comparator | routine physical therapy including range of motion exercises (Active assisted), stretching exercises, strengthening and positioning. Daily session was of 1 hour, 5 times weekly for 6 weeks. Receives: Other: Routine Physical Therapy |
| Routine Physical Therapy and Postural and Kinesthetic Awareness | Experimental | routine physical therapy and additionally postural and kinesthetic Awareness in front of mirror by emphasizing proper body positioning, movements \& balance in sitting and standing position by using interoceptive and exteroceptive reinforcement (verbal, tactile \& visual). Receives: Other: Postural and Kinesthetic Awarness |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Static Component of Berg Balance Scale
Static component of Berg Balance Scale was used to measure static standing balance. Total score of berg balance scale is 56. A score of 56 indicates functional balance.A score of < 45 indicates individuals may be at greater risk of falling.
Measured: 6 months
PoData Stabiliometric Plate
PoData stabiliometric plate was used for the static plantar pressure evaluation. It recorded statistics of plantar pressure.
Measured: 6 months
