Objectives

Narrative objectives1

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of gait training using rhythmic vibrotactile cueing in improving walking function in patients with cerebrovascular disease. Additionally, as a pilot study preceding the implementation of a randomized controlled trial, this study seeks to calculate the effect size required to determine the sample size for the randomized controlled trial.

Interventions/Control_1

Gait training is conducted with rhythmic cueing provided by a vibrotactile stimulation device. The rhythmic stimulation is set to a value 10% higher than the cadence calculated during the initial assessment. The intervention period consists of 30-minute sessions (6 sets of 5 minutes each) performed daily, 7 days a week, for 2 weeks. Rehabilitation during the remaining time follows standard physical therapy practices.
