ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo explore relationships among attention deficits, balance control and falls for stroke at chronic stage.Methods40 subjects were recruited. Fall histories were collected by Questionnaire. The Cancellation Test was used to measure sustained attention. The Berg Balance Scale (BBS) was used to measure the balance ability.Results14 subjects fell among 40 subjects, with fall rate 35%. Sustained attention scores were found to correlate with measures of balance (r=0.550, P<0.01) and with the number of fall(r=-0.458, P<0.01). Balance scores were found to correlate with the number of fall(r=-0.500, P<0.01). Scores for attention and balance for fallers were found to be significantly different from the scores of non-fallers(P=0.006, P=0.004 respectively).ConclusionHigh rate of fall can be found in stroke at chronic stage with a significant relationship among attention deficit, balance control and fall.
