General note Many stroke survivors usually suffer from hemiplegia as stroke is considered to be the leading<br/>cause of disability in long term. Hemiplegia is associated with deformities and gait disturbances,<br/>which may cause difficulty in walking and there is an increased risk of falls. While many studies<br/>have shown that ankle foot orthosis (AFO) is usually frequently prescribed to correct deformities<br/>and it improves gait speed in hemiplegic stroke patients but the effect of combination therapy<br/>which consists of balance exercises and AFO remains unclear. This study aimed to analyze the<br/>effects combination therapy consisting of balance exercises and orthotic treatment on gait<br/>parameters. RCT was conducted on thirty two 32 chronic stroke patients (n=32; age from 40-60<br/>years; duration of stroke: 12-18 weeks). The patients were divided into two groups i.e. control<br/>group and experimental group. Each subject in the control group received balance exercises for 4<br/>weeks and each patient in the experimental group received combination therapy consisting of<br/>balance exercises for hemiplegic lower limb and gait training was done with rigid ankle foot<br/>orthosis (AFO) for 4 weeks. The Activities Specific Balance Confidence (ABC) Scale, Timed<br/>Up and Go Test (TUG) and the 10 Meter Walk Test as a measure of functional ambulation were<br/>evaluated before and after the combination therapy. Results showed that there was a marked<br/>improvement in the findings of Timed Up and Go (TUG) Test, 10m Walk Test after the<br/>intervention in the experimental group. Combination therapy which consisted of balance<br/>exercises and orthotic treatment is therefore more effective than the balance exercises alone in<br/>the improvement of gait of hemiplegic stroke patients.
