Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the effect of dual tasking and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on balance, cognition and motor function in chronic stroke patients. It will be randomized clinical trial.

Clinical Trial Description

Stroke is the major cause of disability and mortality worldwide. A stroke is defined as an abrupt neurological outburst caused by impaired perfusion through the blood vessels to the brain. Every year the number of patients affected by stroke is rising thereby putting extra pressure on socioeconomic conditions in developing countries. Major complications of stroke include hemiplegia leading to upper limb dysfunction along with gait abnormalities. This study will be conducted to determine the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises versus dual-task training on balance, cognition, and motor function in chronic stroke patients. The randomized clinical trial will be conducted, participants will be selected through Non-probability convenience sampling technique and then randomly allocated into two treatment groups. ;
