Abstract
Objective To observe the effect of the ambulation training on the typical hemiplegic gait in community.Methods 50 stroke patients with typical hemiplegic gait were divided into two groups: treatment group was treated with systematic rehabilitation training,5 times each week for 3 months,and control group accepted self-walking training.The follow-up was performed every week at home.The two groups were assessed by the timed up go test,the Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA) and Satisfaction with Life Scale(SWLS).Results The scores of the timed up go test,FMA,and SWLS showed that there weren't significant difference between the treatment group and the control group 1 month after treatment;but the scores in the treatment group were obviously higher than those in the control group 3 months after treatment.Conclusion Ambulation training could improve the typical hemiplegic gait and quality of walking of stroke patients with hemiplegic gait in community.
