Replacing Canes With an Elasticated Orthosis in Chronic Stroke Patients: The Influence on Gait and Balance. A Series of N-of-1 Trials

Stroke Clinical Trial

Official title:
Replacing Canes With an Elasticated Orthotic-garment in Chronic Stroke Patients: The Influence on Gait and Balance. A Series of N-of-1 Trials

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to investigate the effect of an elasticated orthotic garment "Thera Togs" on walking ability and balance in currently cane using chronic stroke subjects (minimum 6 months post stroke) using a series of N-of-1 Trials.

Clinical Trial Description

Aim: To investigate the effect of replacing canes with an elasticated orthotic-garment on gait and balance in chronic stroke subjects.

Design Experimental, multiple baseline N-of-1 series with an ABC design with randomised period duration.

Participants Four cane using chronic stroke subjects. Interventions Phase A (9-12 weeks) usual cane-walking to establish baseline values; Phase B (9-19 weeks) intervention: orthotic-garment worn throughout the day with maximal cane reduction; Phase C (9-10 weeks) individually determined follow-up: either no walking-aid, orthotic-garment or cane.

Weekly measurement of Outcome Measures for gait and balance function ;
