ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe any effect of function-oriented training on the balance of recovering stroke survivors and on their ability in the activities of daily living.Methods:Sixty stroke survivors in recovery were randomly divided into an observation group ( n=30) and a control group ( n=30). The control group received routine rehabilitation training, while the observation group underwent function-oriented training for 6 weeks. Before and after the intervention, both groups were evaluated using the Berg balance scale (BBS), the Fugl-Meyer lower extremity assessment (FMA-L), the timed up-and-go test (TUGT) and the modified Barthel index (MBI). Results:After the treatment, significant improvement was observed in all of the measurements in both groups. The improvements in the average BBS, FMA-L and MBI scores and in the TUGT times of the observation group were significantly better than those of the control group.Conclusion:Function-oriented training can improve the balance and the ability in the activities of daily living of stroke survivors more effectively than the routine therapy.
