Stroke Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effect of Qigong on Balance, Fall Efficacy, Physical Functions and Psychological Wellbeing of People With Stroke in Hong Kong: A Randomized Controlled Trial
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of qigong practice with fitness exercise on balance, fall-efficacy, physical functions, psychological wellbeing and quality of life of stroke survivors.
Participants: A total of 58 stroke survivors 3 months after the current stroke will be
recruited.
Methodology: An assessor-blinded, randomized controlled trial will be conducted. Stroke
survivors will be included in the study if they meet the inclusion criteria. Selected
patients will be randomly allocated into either the experimental group or the control group.
Participants allocated in the experimental group will receive qigong training while this
qigong training will be replaced by a home fitness exercise in the control group. The
experimental and control groups will be required to practice a total of 50 minutes of qigong
and fitness training 3 times per week and for 16 weeks respectively. The main outcome
measure is balance capacity with Mini-BESTest. The secondary outcomes are fall efficacy,
number of falls, postural stability and control, depression, physical functions and quality
of life. Assessments will be done at baseline, 8 weeks and 16 weeks follow-ups by blinded
assessors.
Data analysis: The results will be analyzed using two-way repeated measures analysis of
variance with Statistical Package for Social Science version 21.0. Alpha will be set at
0.05.
