Effects of visual feedback balance system combined with weight loss training system on balance and walking ability in the early rehabilitation stage of stroke: a randomized controlled exploratory study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Previous studies have suggested that the Pro-Kin visual feedback balance system can promote the recovery of balance function in stroke patients.

Objectives

However, this system has not been used effectively in the early stages of stroke rehabilitation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Pro-Kin system combined with weight loss system for the early recovery of balance and walking ability following a stroke.

Methods

A total of 62 patients who underwent radiological diagnosis of stroke were randomly divided into two groups: a control group (n = 31) and a treatment group (n = 31). Both groups received conventional balance training. The treatment group also received training on the Pro-Kin system in conjunction with a weight loss system.
