Thirteen hemiparetic stroke patients (experimental group) underwent the recently developed CAGT program during the early recovery phase, and their functional gain in walking capacity was compared with 17 other stroke patients (control group) being prescribed the conventional gait training program. Results showed that the recovery process of maximum walking speed after a stroke fitted the hyperbolic function in the experimental group and furthermore, the maximum walking speed that might be attained could be higher in the experimental than the control group. The CAGT program makes it possible to analyze and predict gait capacity, i.e., maximum walking speed, and to increase the functional gain of patients during early intensive physical therapy.
13名偏瘫中风患者(实验组)在恢复早期接受了最近开发的强制性主动运动疗法(CAGT)方案,他们的步行能力功能改善情况与另外17名接受传统步态训练方案的中风患者(对照组)进行了比较。结果显示,实验组中风后最大步行速度的恢复过程符合双曲线函数,此外,实验组可能达到的最大步行速度高于对照组。强制性主动运动疗法方案能够分析和预测步态能力,即最大步行速度,并在早期强化物理治疗期间增加患者的功能改善。
