Effect of Rhythmic Auditory Stimulation(RAS) on Turning in Post-stroke Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 10 Feb 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

As, stroke is the second leading cause of death and disability globally, leads to postural changes, disturbance in balance, increase fall risks, \& gait dysfunctions, affecting daily activities and walking ability.As, turning is the major component of ambulation. But this difficulty in post stroke results in increased fall risk.Stroke survivors encounter multiple gait abnormalities, which increases difficulty in changing direction.Multiple studies have reported that, RAS with beats of metronome is an effective intervention on balance \& gait patterns i-e stride length, gait speed, \& symmetry in post-stroke patients .With little evidence available targeting comparative effectiveness with \& without RAS on turning in post-stroke patients. This study will fill this gap, to determine the effect on changing direction, with \& without RAS and will be helpful in providing evidence to literature, will provide treatment protocol for turning in gait.
