PG - 675-685 LID - 10.1080/00222895.2016.1271300 [doi] AB - This study was conducted to investigate the effects of speed-interactive treadmill training (SITT) using smartphone-based motion tracking technology on gait in stroke patients. Thirty-four chronic stroke patients were randomly divided into a SITT group (n = 18) and a standard treadmill training (control) group (n = 16). The SITT group underwent smartphone-based SSIT while the control group underwent standard treadmill training. Both groups performed the training for 35 min per session, 3 times per week, for 6 weeks. Both groups used nonmotorized treadmills so that patients could control the speed. Evaluation was conducted during the week before and after the training. The OptoGait system measured gait spatiotemporal parameters. Both groups showed significant improvement in the temporal and spatial gait parameters (p < .05). In the SITT group, compared to the control group, the two-way analysis of variance with repeated measures showed an improvement in the temporal and spatial gait parameters after the intervention period (p < .05). This study confirmed that SITT improved the gait function of stroke patients. Based on this result, the authors propose that SITT, by improving gait, can be used as an effective training method to improve patients' functional activities in the clinic.
