Effect of HABIT-ILE on balance and coordination after stroke

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

In this randomized two-arm trial, 44 stroke patients (sub-acute to chronic) are assigned to either Lower Extremity HABIT-ILE or conventional treatment to see if HABIT-ILE improves balance and coordination. Outcomes include the Berg Balance Scale, Finger-to-Nose Test, and 6-Minute Walk Test, measured over six months at the HHRD Center in Mansehra. Data are analyzed with repeated measures ANOVA and normality checks to determine effectiveness. The study aims to support integration of HABIT-ILE into stroke rehabilitation if benefits are demonstrated.
