Effect of Mental Arithmetic Priming on Gait and Balance in Stroke
Mental Calculus Can Enhance Gait Performance in Post-Stroke Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Jul 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study investigates the effect of cognitive priming through mental arithmetic on functional mobility in post-stroke patients. It hypothesizes that performing mental calculations (addition, subtraction, multiplication) prior to movement stimulates frontoparietal networks, thereby improving gait speed and dynamic balance compared to a passive control condition.
