Foot Pressure Symmetry Training as a Prognostic Factor For Postural Stability in Stroke Patients

Balance and symmetry of weight bearing is diminished in patients with hemiplegia. In patients with stroke, visual reliance increases rather than somatosensory. Training of weight-bearing symmetry has been a major focus in balance rehabilitation after stroke. The present study is designed to elucidate the role of foot pressure symmetry training using force plate biofeedback in MCA stroke patients.
