The combined effect of unstable surface balance training and visual feedback based on proprioceptive neuromuscular stimulation was effective in restoring balance and gait ability in patients with chronic stroke. Visual feedback complex exercise could improve gait speed, trunk stability, and mobility in chronic stroke patients.
Chronic stroke often results in balance and gait impairments, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the combined effect of unstable surface balance training and visual feedback, based on proprioceptive neuromuscular stimulation in patients with chronic stroke, is effective in restoring balance and gait ability. A total of 39 chronic stroke patients were randomly assigned to a visual feedback combined with unstable surface balance training group (VUSBG), an unstable surface balance training group (USBG), or a conventional physical therapy group (CG). This study was conducted with the Trunk Impairment Scale, the Bug Balance Scale, the Timed Get Up and Go Test, and Gait Analysis. VUSBG and USBG improved function and gait (stride length and hip/knee flexion angle), but there was no significant difference in the CG group. Specific results showed that the stride length in the VUSBG improved by 25% (p < 0.05), and the hip/knee flexion angle improved by 18% (p < 0.05). The post-hoc analysis revealed that VUSBG had a greater impact on the hip/knee flexion angle relative to the other two groups, as well as gait velocity and stride length relative to CG. Visual feedback complex exercise based on the principle of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation could be an intervention strategy to improve gait speed, trunk stability, and mobility in chronic stroke patients.
