| Popis: | BACKGROUND The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is an assessment tool for measuring mobility in stroke patients. In stroke patients, the turning direction of the affected and unaffected sides may influence turning time. AIM The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the turning direction according to the affected and unaffected sides of stroke patients during their Timed Up and Go (TUG) test and to define clinically salient outcomes during TUG tests performed in the clinic. DESIGN Observational design. SETTING Department of Physical Therapy in a rehabilitation center. POPULATION One hundred thirteen hemiparetic stroke patients. METHODS Stroke patients were asked to perform the TUG test by turning toward their affected and unaffected sides. Patients were divided according to gait speed, with their gait speed from the 10mWT being used. Those with a gait speed |
