Randomized Controlled Trial of Robot-Assisted Gait Training versus Therapist-Assisted Treadmill Gait Training as Add-on Therapy in Early Subacute Stroke Patients: The GAITFAST Study Protocol
Abstract:The GAITFAST study (gait recovery in patients after acute ischemic stroke) aims to compare the effects of treadmill-based robot-assisted gait training (RTGT) and therapist-assisted treadmill gait training (TTGT) added to conventional physical therapy in first-ever ischemic stroke patients. GAITFAST (Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT04824482) was designed as a single-blind single-center prospective randomized clinical trial with two parallel groups and a primary endpoint of gait speed recovery up to 6 months a… Show more
