Clinical Trial Summary

Stroke a devastating neurological condition, causing severe neurological challenges such as balance issues, motor function and cognitive deficits among survivors and can cause disability and death. The use of Virtual Reality and Motor Imagery in rehabilitation of neurologic disorders is on the rise. In stroke patients, VR and MI combination has not been studied. This study aims to investigate the combined effects of Virtual Reality and Motor Imagery Techniques with Routine Physical Therapy in patients with post stroke patients.


Clinical Trial Description

This randomized control trial will be conducted at Safi Hospital Faisalabad in 7 months after the approval of synopsis, involving a sample size of 75 participants selected through convenience sampling based on the inclusion criteria. Participants will be randomly assigned to three groups using lottery method, in which Group A, will receive Virtual Reality and Motor Imagery training in conjunction with routine physical therapy three days a week for 12 weeks. Group B will receive VR and routine physical therapy, supplemented by 10-15 minutes of cycling and walking and Group C will receive routine physical therapy with MI techniques, along with 10-15 minutes of cycling and walking. Fugal-Meyer Scale will be used to motor function, Berg Balance Scale for balance and Barthel Index will be used to assess activities of daily living. Assessment will be carried out at baseline, 6th week, 8th week and at 12th week and at 16th week after the discontinuation of treatment. The data will be entered and analyzed by using SPSS 26 ;
