Popis: | In this study, we compared the effects of action observation therapy (AOT) on the walking ability of stroke patients between videos with limited visual attention (body part videos) and a video with the whole body (whole body video). We employed a crossover design and conducted 3 AOT sessions (body part videos, whole body video and a scenery video) for 11 stroke patients. The evaluation items were the 10-m walking time and number of steps, cadence, trunk and knee joint angles during walking, and the timed up and go test (TUGT). After body part videos, the 10-m walking time, trunk and knee joint angles and TUGT significantly improved, suggesting them to be an efficient AOT method. |
