Does treadmill training with randomized speed control improve pulmonary function in persons with chronic stroke?
Randomized-speed treadmill training may augment pulmonary gains in chronic stroke; leaves open superiority over constant-speed protocols in larger trials.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate which treadmill walking training mode is more effective strategy for improving pulmonary function of persons with chronic stroke. METHODS: Twenty-one chronic stroke patients were allocated and randomly to an experimental group (treadmill training with randomized speed control, n=11) and a control group (treadmill training without speed change, n=10). All participants received 30 minutes of neurodevelopmental treatment. In addition, the two groups performed treadmill training for 20 minutes each time with or without speed change. Speed change was applied 40%, 50%, 60%, 70% of Corresponding
