52

Results

Lissajous Index evaluates the left-right symmetry during walking. The Lissajous Index at 2 months after baseline was significantly lower than that at baseline (p < 0.05). A multiple regression analysis showed that the effect of trunk muscle strength was significantly greater than those of the upper- and lower-extremity motor functions.

Baseline Characteristics

We enrolled 52 survivors of stroke (mean age, 63 years; time since stroke, 72.6 days) at Akita prefectural center for rehabilitation and psychiatric medicine. The patients had ability to walk independently for > 12 m without assistance.

Participant flow

Measurements started when participants were able to walk more than 12 m after admission to the rehabilitation unit, and were conducted three times: the baseline measurement, one month later, and two months later.

Adverse events

Nothing.

Outcome measures

Ambulatory trunk movements had been recorded by an accelerometer attached to the lower back at the L3 vertebra level. The Lissajous index (LI) calculated with the medio-lateral and vertical acceleration values was used to evaluate the trunk asymmetry during gait. A smaller LI would indicate that the gait is closer to being bilaterally symmetrical. Upper- and lower-extremity motor function, the muscle tone, lower-limb muscle strength, standing balance and trunk muscle strength were assessed the patients' physical functions.
