The Effect Of Multifidus And Transversus Abdominis Muscle Activation On

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Patients with post-stroke hemiplegia may develop balance disorder and limitation in ambulation ability due to multiple mechanisms. The effects of core muscles on maintaining normal posture, balance and ambulation ability are known. The positive effects of core stabilisation exercises on balance in hemiplegic patients have been shown in previous studies. In this study, we planned to investigate the effects of bilateral transversus abdominis and bilateral lumbar multifidus muscles on balance in patients with stroke-related hemiplegia.

Clinical Trial Description

Loss of function in the trunk muscles of stroke patients leads to both balance problems and excessive effort to maintain balance. While ambulation ability of some patients is completely lost due to stroke, in others, impaired balance and increased postural oscillation lead to fear of falling and increased risk of falling. In previous studies, it has been shown that there is a significant relationship between static balance and duration of hospital stay and functional abilities after stroke. In another study, it was shown that the control ability of the trunk muscles in the early post-stroke period was a strong factor affecting general life activities in the first six months after stroke. Trunk muscles are innervated by both hemispheres unlike the extremities. Therefore, unilateral stroke may impair the function of trunk muscles on both the contralateral and ipsilateral sides. Several studies have shown dysfunction of bilateral trunk flexor, extensor and rotator muscles in patients with unilateral stroke. Many studies have proven that core stabilisation exercises are effective on both balance and gait function and general life activities in hemiplegic patients. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided bilateral transversus abdominis and bilateral lumbar multifidus muscle activations on balance in hemiplegic patients. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
