Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (5)
Amputee Mobility Predictor (AMP)
AMP is functional scale utilising a 3 point rating scale of 0-2.AMP scores have been correlated with functional medicare classification levels of 0-4.
on 3rd and 10th day.
Gait speed
Gait speed in meters per second , measured with 10 meter walking test, gait speed computed by dividing distance covered by time taken to cover it . (m/s)
on 3rd and 10th day of treatment
cadence
The number of steps taken per minute during walking, measured in steps per minute (steps/min )
On the 3rd day of treatment and 10th day of treatment
Cycle time
The time required to complete one full gait cycle from the initial contact of one foot to the next initial contact of same foot, measured in seconds (s)
On the 3rd day of treatment and 10th day of treatment
Stride length
Distance between two consecutive heel strikes of same foot , measures in meter (m)
On the 3rd day of treatment and 10th day of treatment
Study Arms (2)
Impairment oriented group A
EXPERIMENTALGroup A will receive : 1. Warm up 2. Impairement oriented training 3. Cool down
Task oriented group B
EXPERIMENTALGroup B will receive : 1. Warm up 2. Task oriented training 3. Cool down
Interventions
Participants will receive ten days training programs with 5 days in each week. Each session will include warm up followed by sit to stand , stand to sit, walking in parallel bars ,ascend and descend stairs. Participants with group A will receive strengthening exercises of hip flexor , abductors, adductors and bridging of 10 repetition with 10-20 second hold according to patient.
Participants will receive ten days training programs with 5 days in each week. Each session will include warm up followed by sit to stand , stand to sit, walking in parallel bars ,ascend and descend stairs. Participants with group B will receive lateral trunk bending, stepping over obstacle, lateral step ups, walk with visual markers on floor, sit to stand focus on glutes activation.
