Clinical Trial Summary

Stroke is one of the major cause of lifelong disability if not treated on time, the investigator's technique knows as Compelled Body Weight Shift Technique (CBWS) was utilized and administered to chronic stroke population and results were figured out using gait parameters and Tinetti POMA scale.

Description:

Total 28 sample size out of which 27 were divided into control and experimental group. Inclusion criteria was Unilateral chronic stroke with asymmetrical stance, Patients with score of 3,4 and 5 will be included according to FAS (Functional Ambulation Scale), Ability to understand and follow instructions, Both male and female, Any type of stroke, and Age 40-60. Written and informed consent was obtained from participants of study. Six weeks of exercise training was combined with compelled body weight shift technique via shoe lift of 0.6 cm thickness for experimental group and for control group training was performed without shoe lift.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment	Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment The Tinetti, evaluation instrument is, an effectively managed, task-arranged test that, quantifies gait and balance activities of patients. A three-point, ordinal scale, extending from 0-2. "0" demonstrates the most elevated level of debilitation and "2" the people's freedom.; Total Balance Score = 16; Total Gait Score = 12; Maximum total test Score = 28 [Time Frame: upto 6 weeks]	upto 6 weeks
Secondary	A 10meter walk test	A 10meter walk test A ten meter distance employed, to determine functional mobility and gait speed, the ten meter walk test was performed by patient at self-selected walking pace and fast walking pace	upto 6 weeks
Secondary	Camry 160 Analog Weight Scale	Camry 160 Analog Weight Scale to check the weight in kilograms	upto 6 weeks
