Brief Summary

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

Poor balance capacity is one of clinical symptoms of stroke patient. The reason of loss balance capacity is motor impairment, as well as a diminished capacity to voluntarily shift body weight or to with stand external pertubations. Postural movement patterns include three discrete control strategies: hip, knee, and ankle strategy. The ankle rocker is an important factor to maintain balance during standing and the ankle strategy restores the center of mass (CoM) to a position of stability through body movement. As a result, effective control of foot motion and ankle stability may decrease postural sway and the risk of fall in chronic stroke.The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the insole on balance capacity in chronic stroke.

Detailed Description

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

An important determinant of activities of daily living performance is standing balance. Therefore, poor balance, or postural stability, is significant predictors the risk of fall. After a fall, the patient can experience psychological, physical, social, economic, and sometimes fatal effects. The injuries can reduce the patient's mobility as well as independence and influence quality of life.Patients with chronic stroke wearing functional insoles and sham insoles to challenge balance tests.
