About this trial
The goal of this observational study is to describe the evolution of gait recovery during the subacute phase of stroke up to six months after stroke, in patients hospitalized in medical and neurological rehabilitation units.

Treatments tested in this trial
Gait rehabilitation
Other interventionAssessment of gait and balance abilities after stroke during neurorehabilitation from the subacute phase of stroke to 6 months after stroke. The assessments will be carried out on entrance to the neurological center, then at 1 ,3 and 6 months and on hospital discharge.
Treatment groups
No treatment groups listed
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
Functional Ambulation Classification
The Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) is a 6-point functional walking test that evaluates ambulation ability.
Time frame
Functional Ambulation Classification will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).Secondary outcomes
1
Postural Assesment Scale for Stroke Patient
The Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke Patients (PASS) assesses balance in lying, sitting and standing positions. It was designed specifically for patients with stroke and is suitable for all individuals regardless of postural performance. The PASS consists of a 4-point scale where items are scored from 0 - 3. The total score ranges from 0 - 36, the higher the score is, the more favourable the balance in stroke patients.
Time frame
Postural Assesment Scale for Stroke Patient will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).2
Timed Up and Go
The Timed Up and Go is a general physical performance test used to assess mobility, balance and locomotor performance. More specifically, it assesses the ability to perform sequential motor tasks relative to walking and turning.
Time frame
Timed Up and Go will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).3
10-Meter Walk Test
The 10 Metre Walk Test is a performance measure used to assess walking speed in meters per second over a short distance
Time frame
10-Meter Walk Test will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).4
6Minute-Walk Test
The 6 Minute Walk Test is a sub-maximal exercise test used to assess aerobic capacity and endurance. The distance covered over a time of 6 minutes is used as the outcome by which to compare changes in performance capacity.
Time frame
6Minute-Walk Test will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).Sponsors and contacts
