A Randomized, Double-blind Study Comparing the Effects of Three Distinct High Intensity Locomotor Training Protocols on Locomotor Outcomes in Subacute Stroke Patients Undergoing Adult Inpatient Rehabilitation.
The purpose of this study is to elucidate optimal dosing for High Intensity Gait Training (HIGT) to reduce locomotor disability for those undergoing inpatient rehabilitation (IR) in the subacute phase of stroke recovery.
This is a randomized controlled trial conducted at a single IR facility. Investigators will randomize patients to receive one of two distinct HIGT interventions or a high step count intervention during standard care.
Inclusion: Primary diagnosis of stroke.
Exclusion: Non-ambulatory status prior to admission (unable to walk >50 meters); Weightbearing restrictions, uncontrolled cardiopulmonary, metabolic, infectious, or psychiatric disorders, which would preclude aerobic locomotor training; Estimated length of stay of less than 14 days; Pregnant.
