Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Is dual-task obstacle crossing training more efficiently than single-task obstacle crossing training on the improvement of walking ability, balance ability, and lower extremity muscle strength in ambulatory subjects with spinal cord injury

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Dual-task obstacle crossing training

The four obstacles in the sizes of 4cm wide, 8cm wide, 4cm high, and 8cm high are randomly placed along a 10-meter walkway in 2-meter intervals. Subjects are instructed to walk continuously over obstacles at their comfortable speed, as good as they can without contact the obstacles by their leg or device. During walk over obstacles, subjects asked to perform simultaneously with a color word stroop task which requires subjects to see and answer the color of the name of a color words in the monitor (ignore the meaning) as quickly as possible, and loudly.

Single-task obstacle crossing training

The four obstacles in the sizes of 4cm wide, 8cm wide, 4cm high, and 8cm high are randomly placed along a 10-meter walkway in 2-meter intervals. Subjects are asked to walk continuously over obstacles at their comfortable speed, as good as they can without contact the obstacles by their leg or device.
