Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from balance (Kore Balance score) of patients with acute stroke at 5-7 days a week.

    It used to measure static standing and dynamic balance ability by assessing posture imbalance, which was recorded as the anterior-to-posterior postural sway and the medial-to-lateral sway for 30 s. Kore Balance System facilitates the performance of a 4-way evaluation of the balance of front/left, front/right, behind/left, and behind/right and calculates total score. The total score, including deviations caused by impairment of postural balance, is calculated by the device. An increase in the total score indicates worse balance; that is, higher total scores indicate poorer balance and lower total scores, better balance . When the static and dynamic balance parameters of the hemiplegic participants were evaluated, the ground instability index was set to 5, with the participants' eyes open and their hands on the device. Our study included Kore Balance which evaluate dynamic and static balance with stroke and pressure of flor is arranged by physical therapist.

    5-7 days a week

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Change from control of body (Functional Reach (FRT)Test) of patients with acute stroke.

    5-7 days a week

  • Change from postural stability and control PASS (Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke) Rating Scale) of patients with acute stroke at 5-7 days a week

    5-7 days a week

  • Change from ambulation (Functional Ambulance Classification (FAS) Scale) of patients with acute stroke at 5-7 days a week.

    5-7 days a week

  • Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    5-7 days a week

  • Change from muscle tone (Modified Ashworth (MASS)Scale) of patients with acute stroke at 5-7 days a week.

    5-7 days a week

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Somatosensorial and Vestibular Exercises Group

EXPERIMENTAL

This group of patients received patients with acute stroke. It will be applied somatosensorial and vestibular rehabilitation additional conventional therapy

Behavioral: Somatosensorial and Vestibular Exercises

Conventional Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This Group patients received patient with acute stroke. It will be applied classical physiotherapy and conventional exercises.

Behavioral: Conventional Group

Interventions

In the experimental group, the subjects who were taken to the somatosensorial and vestibular exercises program after pre- treatment evaluations. The subjects in this group were given classical physiotherapy and somatosensorial combined with vestibular exercise performed 5-7 days a week, 1 set of 10 times with physiotherapist control. In the content of the training, in addition to the general physiotherapy program applied for Brunnstrom and Bobath exercises and spasticity inhibition according to in-bed mobility, Flask and spasticity conditions in the experimental group, a mutual study program was prepared with Cawthorne-Cooksey and Frenkel exercises in the bed, then balance and walking will be performed with the exercises

Somatosensorial and Vestibular Exercises Group

In the control group, The subjects who were taken into the study were taken to the classical physiotherapy based on Bobath and Brunnstrom will be applied to increase the mobilization and spasticity up to the discharge stage known as 5-7 days a week

Conventional Group
