Comparison of Otago Exercises Versus Resistance Training on Functional Performance in Stroke Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 8 Dec 2023

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Otago techniques are well known for addressing balance and strength deficiencies in healthy older population with fall risk. Despite this, there is limited literature about the Otago approaches' effectiveness in stroke patients. To the best of our knowledge, no research has been done in Pakistan to determine the effects of Otago exercises on chronic stroke patients.Otago exercises are easy to learn and create a sense of motivation and pleasurable activity when performed. To determine the effect of Otago exercises in treating poor balance control and reduced strength, the current study has chosen chronic stroke patients as its target population. The results of this study will serve as a manual for physical therapists on how to efficiently incorporate Otago Intervention into their treatment plans for better outcomes.
