Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Turning performance [Change from baseline at 4 week]

    Using a turning characteristic evaluation system to evaluate the swing time, stance time, turning speed, and stride length of the participants during turning

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Balance [Change from baseline at 4 week]

    Berg Balance Scale Limits of stability (LOS) using NeuroCom Smart Balance Master (NeuroCom International, Clackamas, OR)

  2. Strength [Change from baseline at 4 week]

    Using handheld dynamometer

  3. Straight walking performance [Change from baseline at 4 week]

    Using GAITRite system (CIR system, Inc, Havertown, PS) calculate walking speed, cadence, swing time, stance time, and step length

  4. Timed up and go test [Change from baseline at 4 week]

  5. Falls Efficacy Scale International (Chinese) [Change from baseline at 4 week]

  6. Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) Taiwan version [Change from baseline at 4 week]
