About this study

Effects of exergaming training will be assessed for trunk control which includes the parameters of balance and posture.

Sub-acute post stroke patients aged 40-85 years The participants will be assessed through Trunk impairment scale (TIS), Berg Blanace Scale (BBS) and biodex (clinical test for sensory integration in balance).

Informed consent will be taken after which the participants will be recruited into the two groups, where one group will receive intervention through exergaming and other group will receive task oriented trainig.

Baseline and post-treatment measurements will be taken for analysis.

Treatment and study plan

INTERVENTION GROUP; TRAINING WITH EXERGAMING

Procedure

RANDOMIZED CONTROL TRIAL EXERGAMING KINECT 20,000 LEAKS , KINECT BUBBLE POP, KINECT RALLY BALL GROUP 2: TASK ORIENTED TRAINING TRANSFERRING OBJECTS FROM ONE SIDE TO OTHER SIDE OF TABLE CATCHING AND THROWING BALLSIN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS PICKING UP OBJECTS FROM LESS HIGHTED TABLES.

Task oriented training

Procedure

The participant will receive task oriented training consisting of different tasks in sitting and standing position.

week1-2 sitting position: throwing and catching balls standing position: picking up glass from less heighted table . week 3-4 sitting position: transferring the plastic rings from one corner of table to another.

standing position: catching balls from multiple directions. wee5-6 sitting position: picking objects from floor standing position: opening drawer from less heighted tables week 7-8 standing position: picking up and transferring bottles, jars at different locations on table standing position: removing stickers from wall time of session: 15-20 reps, 2 sets. 30 minutes of session with 5 minutes rest in between. the intervention will be given for 30 minutes , 3 days a week for total 8 weeks of time period.

Primary outcomes

  1. TRUNK CONTROL

    Time frame: 8 weeks

    It will be assessed by trunk impairment scale. for trunk control : trunk impairment scale has total scoring 0-16. 0= severe impairment, 16=no impairment. trunk impairment scale will measure the trunk control in static sitting and static standing. and in rotational movements in left and right direction.

  2. Balance

    Time frame: 8 weeks

    assessed by berg balance scale for balance berg balance scale has total scoring 56. 0-20=severe impairment, 21-40=moderate impairment, 41-56=mild impairment. berg balance scale will measure the static and dynamic balance in both sitting and standing position.
