The purpose of this study is to examine, in patients with acute post-stroke hemiplegia, the effects and characteristics of postural-control motor tasks including weight-bearing training with a Perceptual Stimulus Insole (PSI) on paretic-side weight-bearing ratio and center-of-pressure sway.
Efficacy
Paretic-side lower-limb weight-bearing ratio during standing tests (measured before and immediately after the intervention)
[Measured before and immediately after the intervention] Center-of-pressure (COP) indices in eyes-open static standing; center-of-pressure excursion in the eyes-open limits-of-stability test (four directions); Functional Reach Test (FRT); and a semi-structured interview on standing.
[Measured at baseline only] Fugl-Meyer Assessment lower-extremity motor (FMA-LE) and sensory (FMA-S) subscales; knee extension strength (hand-held dynamometer); Functional Assessment for Control of Trunk (FACT); Berg Balance Scale (BBS); Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE); Trail Making Test part A (TMT-A); and Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB).

In addition to standard physical therapy, participants wear a Perceptual Stimulus Insole (PSI) and perform weight-bearing training toward the paretic and non-paretic sides, with weight position taught through plantar sensory input. The weight-bearing training consists of 4 sets over 10 minutes. All assessments are performed without the PSI, before and immediately after the intervention.
In addition to standard physical therapy, participants perform weight-bearing training toward the paretic and non-paretic sides with verbal instruction of weight position. The weight-bearing training consists of 4 sets over 10 minutes (identical intervention time and standard physical therapy as the intervention group).
