Abstract
Objective: The purpose of the study was performed for effects of treadmill gait training according to different inclination influenced on the pulmonary function with hemiplegic patients caused by cerebrovascular accident. Method: The subjects of the study were 44 patients with chronic stroke and randomly divided into three group which were two experimental groups (5° treadmill gait training (n=15) and 10°treadmill gait training (n=15)) and control group (treadmill flat gait training (n=14)). Three groups received different inclination (5°, 10°, flat) treadmill gait training for 30 minutes a time while 5times per week for 6week in addition to conventional physical therapy. We performed pulmonary function test. Results: The result of this study showed that treadmill gait training controlled inclination 5°, 10°, flat plane were positive influence on stroke patients’ pulmonary function. Especially, inclination 5°, 10° gait training group showed Significant improved than flat gait training group. Conclusion: Gait training controlled inclination is an effective intervention in order to improve hemiplegia due to stroke patients’ pulmonary function. It is considered to be treadmill gait training controlled appropriate inclination when in addition to treatment time.
