Brief Summary

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

This cross-sectional study aims to investigate the prevalence of post-stroke visual dependence, and the effects of visual dependence on balance and gait. It also determines whether visual dependence could differentiate stroke patients with a history of falls from without.

Detailed Description

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

Stroke participants will be recruited to measure the level of visual dependence, muscle strength, neurological recovery, balance ability, vertigo symptom, gait pattern and activities of daily living. This will calculate the prevalence of post-stroke visual dependence, and investigate the negative impact of visual dependence on balance and walking functions. This also determines whether the value of visual dependence could differentiate stroke patients with a history of falls from without a history of falls.
