An interventional study of sensory motor integration exercises and conventional physiotherapy in Stroke, sponsored by Mahidol University. Completed at 2 sites in Myanmar. Open to participants aged 20 Years to 80 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-08-13.
Sponsored by Mahidol University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
To study the effect of sensorimotor integration exercises on balance and fall efficacy in sub-acute stroke by performing 18 balance training exercises with three progressive steps.
Balance impairment after stroke is significantly correlated with fall risk. To improve balance and reduce fall efficacy, the participants in the study group will be trained by six weeks three progressive steps of sensorimotor integration exercises. Each exercise step will take 30 minutes of a practice session, three sessions per week. Conventional physiotherapy (passive and active exercises and lower extremities strengthening exercises) will be given to the control group. The changes in balance performance and fall efficacy will be measured and compared within and between groups.
8,255 studies on the registry are indexed under Stroke; 2,056 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 46 is close to the median of 49 across 6,024 interventional studies indexed under Stroke.

Short tests of memory and thinking, each scored out of 30. Lower scores suggest more difficulty; criteria give a range, either to include people with memory problems or to leave them out.

Sensory-motor integration exercises with 3 progressive steps, 30 minutes per sessions, 3 sessions per week for 6 weeks.
Behavioral: sensory motor integration exercises
Conventional exercises include simple passive and active exercises and lower extremities strengthening exercises for balance and ambulation. The exercise session will last 30 minutes for 3 sessions per week. The total intervention period is 6 weeks.
Behavioral: conventional physiotherapy
Sensorimotor integration exercises will be given in study group. The exercises will be performed in standing, sitting and walking. Exercises will be progressively increased from eye open to closed , floor to mat and head turns to right \& left under the supervision of physiotherapist. Sensorimotor integration exercises will take 45 minutes in each session.
Conventional physiotherapy will take 30 minutes in each session, taking three sessions per weeks for six weeks. The exercises include simple lower extremity exercise and ambulatory training such as sit to stand, stepping, lateral and backward walking, and tandom walking etc.
Berg Balance Scale (BBS)
14 items to measure static and dynamic balance
Time frame: 6 weeks
Functional Reach Test
To assess the stability by measuring the maximum distance while standing in a fixed position
Time frame: 6 weeks
Fall Efficacy Scale
Short, easy questionnaire that provides information about how much fear of fall, which is comprised of 16-items concerning confidence in maintaing balance during activities.
Time frame: 6 weeks
Ran from May 2018 to primary completion in May 2019, 12 months.
Of 3,108 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Stroke, half reached primary completion within 23 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 46. This study's 12 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 3,252 studies reached it within 23 months; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 46.
