Randomized clinical trial shows treadmill perturbation training improves postural control in chronic stroke patients, suggesting potential for rehabilitation.
Key Points
MAIN FINDING: Treadmill perturbation-based training improves postural control in chronic stroke patients.
KEY EVIDENCE: Both training groups showed significant postural improvements, but did not differ statistically in outcomes.
APPROACH: Fifty stroke patients participated in a randomized trial comparing treadmill training to traditional rehab.
SIGNIFICANCE: Understanding TPBT's comparable effectiveness can refine rehabilitation methods for stroke recovery.
