About this trial
This is an interventional other trial for Acute Stroke
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- At least 18 years old
- Primary diagnosis of an acute or hemorrhagic stroke
- Admitted into the acute or acute rehab setting and is appropriate for physical therapy services.
- Can ambulate with 1 person assistance and a device as needed, with no more than maximal assistance required. The patient must be able to independently advance the lower extremity forward, but can receive maximal assistance for blocking, bracing or postural control during ambulation.
- Can stand and/or ambulate for at least 6 minutes
Exclusion Criteria:
- Hemodynamically unstable
- Unstable medical co-morbidities such as: active bleeding, recurring seizures, uncontrolled hypertension (permissive HTN orders ok)
- Patients with bilateral acute stroke
- Patients who are unable to follow 1 step commands as determined by the screening physiatrist
- Orthopedic co-morbidities that place a weight-bearing restriction on the lower extremities such as acute fracture, joint replacement, or other musculoskeletal injury
- Any other condition that would limit a patient's ability to remain in a standing position with assistance for 6 minutes at a time.
