Effects of Rhythmic Auditory Cueing Augments Cognitive Treadmill Walking Training on Community Walking Capacity, Walking Automaticity, and Social Participation in Individuals With Chronic Stroke: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
The first objective of this study is to examine the superiority of the combined rhythmic auditory cueing with cognitive treadmill training (combined group) in people with stroke as compared with the cognitive treadmill walking training (cognitive group) or treadmill walking training alone (treadmill group) (Aim 1). The study's second aim is to investigate the factors affecting the improvement in community walking capacity after interventions and to explore whether changes in community walking capacity are associated with changes in participation after interventions (Aim 2).

Treatments
Experimental: Cognitive Treadmill Walking Training with Rhythmic Auditory Cueing (CTW+RAC) group
The CTW+RAC group will undertake progressive treadmill walking speed while performing a cognitive task with rhythmic auditory cueing (i.e., 110% of baseline cadence).
Active_comparator: Cognitive Treadmill Walking Training (CTW)
The CTW group will receive cognitive training while walking at a progressive speed on the treadmill.
Active_comparator: Treadmill Walking Training (TW)
The TW group will train only in treadmill walking with progressive speed adjusted weekly.
