Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

To evaluate the effect of core stability exercise on symmetrical weight bearing in chronic stroke patients?

Clinical Trial Description

Stroke is a syndrome characterized by quickly emerging clinical indicators of a focal (or global) disruption of brain function. The symptoms can last for more than 24 hours or even result in death, and there is no known reason for them other than vascular origin. Over 80% of all strokes are caused by an ischemic stroke. A large artery blockage typically results in tissue infarction, which is the non-selective loss of all brain cells in the affected areas of the brain if it is not quickly reversed. Determining the location and size of these infarcts is crucial. the long-term functional deficits resulting from ischemic stroke. After a stroke, patients' ability to bear weight symmetrically is similarly compromised; they may bear between 61 and 80% of their body weight on a non-paretic leg. Physiotherapy procedures targeted at enhancing core stability can enhance the lumbopelvic-hip musculature's strength, coordination, and endurance, potentially reducing physical deficits linked to compromised trunk function. Because these muscles are crucial for both stability and lumbar posture control (by the employment of Core stability is commonly utilized in whole-body exercises to enhance the strength of the muscles around the stomach, lumbar, and pelvic regions, whether they be tonic or postural muscles. The trunk is the body's center pivot point, serving as a vital component for functional activity, balance, postural control, and extremity coordination. Consequently, the trunk is very important. in the recovery procedure. There is a substantial body of research demonstrating that Trunk control, balance when sitting and standing, and mobility can all be improved with trunk training. in stroke patients, according to recent studies in systemic reviews. So, the purpose of the current study was to detect the effect of core stability exercise on symmetrical weight bearing in patients with chronic stroke ;
