Virtual Reality Based Robotic Gait and Balance Trainer

In the researchers' words

The aim of research is to examine and compare the effectiveness of virtual reality-based balance training and robot-assisted walking approaches on balance and gait in individuals post-stroke. Through the study, Investigators intend to reach conclusions regarding whether the focus should be on balance or walking training based on the Berg Balance Scale and Functional Ambulation Classification levels of stroke survivors. Subgroups will be formed in both groups based on Functional Ambulation and Berg Balance Scale scores. The balance and gait developments within these subgroups will be compared, aiming to determine at which levels balance or walking improvement is more pronounced. These findings are crucial for making the right choices in setting rehabilitation goals for individual patients.
