Abstract

OBJECTIVE : To find out the effect of simple kinetic feedback training on stance symmetry in individuals with acute hemiparetic stroke. STUDY DESIGN : Two groups pre and post test experimental study design. SUBJECTS: Fifteen hemiparetic individuals of acute middle cerebral artery stroke and age group between 45 to 65, who are medically stable including both the genders. Functional balance grade for standing- fair. INTERVENTION : 8 patients in the experimental group received simple kinetic feedback training and 7 patients in the control group received lateral weight shifting exercises and both the groups received conventional therapy. OUTCOME MEASURE : Weight bearing symmetry scores. RESULTS : Statistical analysis was done by using‘t’ test showed no significant improvement in weight bearing symmetry scores between experimental group and control group. CONCLUSION : It is concluded that there is no statistically significant improvement on stance symmetry even though there was a clinical improvement by simple kinetic feedback training in individuals with acute hemiparetic stroke. Larger sample size and longer treatment duration has to be carried out by using simple kinetic feedback training.
