Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of eccentric exercise of affected hip abductor muscles on Gait balance in patient with hemiplegia. 30 patients with hemiplegia were recruited among in and out patients of Gil Hospital(age x=50.5, SD=10.1, range 37-80. post stroke days x=383.2, SD=309.3, range 57-1165). These patients were divided into eccentric and control groups by random sampling. TUG were used for this study. Paired t- test was used to identify the effects of eccentric exercise of hip. The results were stastically significantly differences in the effect of exercise between experimental and control groups by TUG(p<0.05). The results indicate that the eccentric exercise of affected hip abductor muscles is effects on gait balance in patient with hemiplegia.
