NCT ID: NCT06196411

Last Updated: 2024-07-08

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: NA
• Total Enrollment: 20 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2023-12-24
• Study Completion Date: 2024-03-18

Brief Summary

The aim of the randomized controlled study is to investigate the effects of task-oriented training on motor and cognitive functions combined with Bobath training in patients with stroke.

Detailed Description

Patients who meet the criteria will be informed about the study and volunteers will be included. When initial assessments will be completed, patients will be assigned to one of two possible sequences by simple randomization: study group (SG) or control group (CG).

All volunteers will recieve Bobath training program with the duration of 8 weeks. Additionally, task oriented training will be applied in SG, 5 days a week for 8 weeks.

All patients will be assessed in terms of motor functions and orientation, awareness, spatial perception, visuomotor construction, visual perception, praxis and thinking operations domains of cognitive funtions at the baseline and at the end of the study. Data will be collected from all the patients at baseline and at the end of the study (8 weeks) by the same physiotherapist who also will supervise the exercise sessions.

Study Groups

Study Group

Task-oriented Training Bobath Training

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Task-oriented Training

Intervention Type: BEHAVIORAL

Task-oriented training will be applied to study group 5 days a week, for a total of 6 weeks, in addition to Bobath training. Task-oriented training will consist of performing the lying, sitting, standing and walking exercises by performing tasks for specific goals. Exercises will be perform by accomplishing tasks such as touching the ball with the upper or lower extremities, reaching for the ball, crossing various tracks to move blocks from one place to another, walking through obstacles or climbing stairs.

Bobath Training

Intervention Type: BEHAVIORAL

Bobath Concept includes sensory, perceptual and adaptive exercises aimed at improving function through mobilisation, weight-bearing, practicing more normal movement patterns and performing more efficient, less effortful tasks.

Control Group

Bobath Training

Group Type: ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Bobath Training

Intervention Type: BEHAVIORAL

Bobath Concept includes sensory, perceptual and adaptive exercises aimed at improving function through mobilisation, weight-bearing, practicing more normal movement patterns and performing more efficient, less effortful tasks.
