Effect of Cognitive-Motor Dual-Task Training on Postural Stability and Functional Mobility in Stroke Survivors
This Randomized Controlled Trial is conducted to investigate the effects of Cognitive-Motor Dual-Task Training on Postural Stability and Functional Mobility in Stroke Survivors.
Inclusion: Age between 40-75 years; Clinically diagnosed ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke (≥3 months,post-onset); Ability to follow verbal commands (MMSE≥24); Medically stable and cleared for physical activity; Able to walk independently or with minimal assistance (Functional Ambulation Categories ≥3); Berg Balance Scale score between 21-45 (indicating moderate fall risk).
Exclusion: Severe musculoskeletal conditions or orthopedic impairments that limit safe participation in balance and gait training. (e.g. recent fractures , severe arthritis); Diagnosed Dementia or neurodegenerative disorders; Severe aphasia or language deficits impacting task comprehension; Severe spasticity (modified Ashworth scale ≥2 in lower limbs); Visual or vestibular impairments affecting balance; Participation in any other structured dual-task or cognitive training program within the past 3 months.
