Abstract:
Objective of the study was to determine the effect of circuit gait training versus traditional gait training on mobility performance and quality of life in sub-acute and chronic stroke patients. A randomized control trial was conducted and stroke patients of either gender having 2-4 score on Rankin Modified Scale and able to stand 10 seconds were included in study. A total of 32 individuals were randomly assigned into two groups. They were assigned a 40-50 min/session for 3-4 days/week over length of 06 weeks. Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Fall Efficacy Scale (FES) and Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL) tools assessed measures of interest. The sample comprise of 16 males and 14 females with mean age of 52.53±12.76 years. After six weeks, significant improvement was recorded in BBS (p=0.002). Quality of life and fall risk were also significantly improved and reported using FES (p=0.004) and SS-QOL (p=0.004). Circuit gait training improves mobility, balance and enhances quality of life in stroke patients.
