Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of task-oriented training on balance,functional mobility,walking, activities of daily living and quality of life in individuals with stroke.

Stroke

Stroke; Tas-Oriented Training; Balance; Walking; Mobility; Activities of Daily Living; Quality of Life

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

• Berg Balance Scale(BBS)

  BBS, evaluates daily activities including static sitting and standing balance, as well as transfers, turning, and picking up objects from the ground, in 14 items.Scoring is given as 0-4. It scores from 4 (normal performance) to 0 (not able to do the movement) according to the person's ability to do what is asked of them safely and independently. The total score is 56 points. 0-20 indicates high risk, 21-40 indicates medium risk, and 41-64 indicates low risk.

  six weeks

• 10 Meter Walking Test(10MWT)

  This test calculates the unassisted walking speed of individuals at a distance of 10 meters. In this test, the person will be asked to walk at their normal pace in a pre-measured 10 meter area.

  siz weeks

• Timed Up And Go Test (TUG)

  It is a frequently used test that evaluates functional mobility and dynamic balance. At the beginning of the test, individuals sit in a chair. A distance of 3 m is set in front of the patient. With the start command, the patient gets up from his seat and walks 3 m, turns around and walks back and sits. With the start command, the time until the moment of sitting on the chair is recorded in seconds.Shorter duration indicates better functional mobility.

  siz weeks

• Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale(SS-QOL)

  The Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale evaluates the quality of life in post-stroke individuals. It consists of 49 items from 12 areas;energy, family roles, language, mobility, mood, personality, self-care, social roles, thinking, upper extremity function, vision, work/productivity. Each item is evaluated on a 5-point Likert scale. Maximum score is 245, high scores indicates good quality of life.

Control Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants in control group will receive an exercise program consisted of upper and lower extremity strengthening and balance exercises.The exercises will be started as 8-10 repetitions and one set and the number of sets will be increased according to the progression of the patient. Exercises will be applied for 6 weeks, 5 days a week, for a total of 30 sessions, each session for 1 hour.

Other: Conventional Therapy

Task-Oriented Training Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in the task-oriented training group will receive the same treatment given to the control group, with an additional 30 minutes of task-oriented training.Task-Oriented Training Program will include several everyday tasks (Getting up from the chair, walking 10 steps taking a book from the table and walking backwards to sit on the chair,Walking forward and sideways over obstacles...etc.).The exercises will be started as 12-15 repetitions and 1 set at the beginning, and the number of sets will be increased according to the progression of the patient. A total of 30 sessions will be applied, 5 days a week for 6 weeks, with a total of 1.5 hours of exercises.

Other: Task-Oriented Training

Interventions

Task-Oriented Training OTHER

Participants in this group will receive 30 minutes of task-oriented training and 1 hour of conventional therapy for 6 weeks 5 times a week.

Task-Oriented Training Group

Conventional Therapy OTHER

Conventional therapy will be consisted of balance,upper and lower extremity strengthening exercises.
