Effects of Assisted Walking Exercise in Chronic Dependent Ambulatory Stroke Survivors: A Mini-Review
These studies indicated that assisted walking exercise is feasible to perform by chronic dependent ambulatory stroke survivors and can induce continued motor recovery and functional improvement. However, the mixed and limited evidence from existing research underscores the need for future high-quality randomized controlled trials with standardized designs and outcome measures to establish evidence-based walking programs for this population.
