| Abstract | 3)Purpose: The purpose of this study was both to examine the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) lower leg taping and treadmill training on the gait and balance abilities of patients with hemiplegia resulting from a stroke and to provide a taping method based on the PNF concept.Methods: Twenty patients with hemiplegia resulting from a stroke were randomly and equally assigned to a control group (n=10), which received treadmill training, and to an experimental group (n=10), which received PNF lower leg taping and treadmill training. The intervention was conducted five times per week for six weeks. In order to measure changes in the gait ability of the subjects, a 10-meter walking test (10MWT) and a 6-minute walking test (6MWT) were conducted, and in order to measure changes in the subjects' balance ability, a timed up and go test (TUG) was performed. In order to compare differences within each group before and after the intervention, a paired-t test was carried out, and in order to compare differences between the two groups, the analysis of covariance was utilized. All statistical significance levels were set at α=0.05.Results: There were significant differences before and after the intervention within both groups in changes of 10MWT, 6MWT, and TUG (p<0.01). Regarding differences between the two groups, the experimental group underwent more effective changes than the control group in 6MWT and TUG (p<0.05).Conclusion: This study applied PNF lower leg taping and treadmill training to patients with hemiplegia resulting from a stroke, and this resulted in improvement in the subjects' gait and balance abilities. Taping and treadmill training based on the PNF concept is considered to be usefully applied as one of the programs to improve hemiplegic patients' gait and balance abilities.

This study examined the gait ability and foot pressure after backward walking training in hemiplegia patients after stroke to provide evidence for the application of backward walking to the rehabilitation of those patients. Twenty hemiplegia patients hospitalized at one rehabilitation hospital were enrolled in this study, which was conducted from 23 April to 18 May, 2012. The subjects were randomized into either the experimental group or control group. The control group received general physical therapy for 30 minutes and the experimental group received 20 minutes of physical therapy and 10 minutes of backwards walking training five times a week for four weeks. The gait ability and foot pressure of both feet were measured quantitatively and compared. The results showed the weight bearing (entire foot, anterior and posterior of foot) of the paralyzed foot during the stance phase showed a significant difference (p<.05). The difference in the foot pressure of right and left feet was more significant in the experimental group than that of the control group (p<.05). Therefore, this study confirmed that backward walking training in a rehabilitation program would be helpful for improving the gait ability of hemiplegia patients after stroke.
