Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To find out the effectiveness of repetitive bilateral leg training along with conventional therapy in improving lower extremity motor function in MCA stroke patients. METHOD: The study conducted was an experimental comparative approach. Sample of 30 subjects satisfying the criteria were divided into two groups, control (group A) and experimental (group B). Control group received range of motion exercises, functional mobility exercises, strengthening exercises, balance training, gait training. For experimental group, in addition to conventional physiotherapy repetitive bilateral leg training was given. Treatment was given for 3 weeks. OUTCOME MEASURES: The outcome measures taken were Fugl Meyer lower extremity score and step test. RESULT: The tests used for statistical analysis were paired and unpaired t test. The statistical analysis showed significant improvement in experimental group than control group. CONCLUSION: The repetitive bilateral leg training seemed to be beneficial in improving lower limb motor performance in MCA stroke patients.
