“…Yang et al 6 ) reported that dual-task training is effective for improving gait speed, stride, and time. Studies by An et al 9 ) and Kim et al 16 ) showed that dual-task training improved gait ability in the experimental group. Although there were differences in the experimental environment, the advanced studies and this study have similar results.…”

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of aquatic dual-task training on balance and gait in stroke patients. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty stroke patients were divided into the experimental (n=10) and control (n=10) groups. Both groups underwent neurodevelopmental treatment. The experimental group additionally underwent aquatic dual-task training for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks. Balance was measured using the Berg balance scale, Five Times Sit-to Stand Test, and Functional Reach Test. Gait was measured using the 10-Meter Walk Test, Timed Up and Go Test, and Functional Gait Assessment. [Results] For intragroup comparison, the experimental group showed a significant change after the experiment in all balance and gait assessment tests. For intergroup comparison, the experimental group showed relatively more significant change after the experiment in all balance and gait assessment tests. [Conclusion] Our results showed that aquatic dual-task training has a positive effect on balance and gait in stroke patients.

“…Tyrimo rodikliai sutampa su kitų autorių gautaisiais. Nustatyta, kad dvigubos užduoties metodas yra efektyvesnis už bazinę kineziterapiją, lavinant asmenų, patyrusių insultą, eiseną (Kim et al, 2013;Liu et al, 2017) ir po galvos smegenų traumų (Rahman et al, 2018). Mokslininkų teigimu (Shin, An, 2014), egzistuoja glaudus ryšys tarp pusiausvyros ir funkcinio mobilumo, todėl pagerėjusi pusiausvyra tiesiogiai teigiamai veikia judėjimo galimybes.…”

Research background. It was found that dual task training improves functional abilities in subjects with neurological disorders, however it is not known how dual task training affects balance and functional mobility in children with cerebral palsy (CP).The aim. To determine the effectiveness of dual motor tasks training and basic physiotherapy programme on balance and functional mobility in children with spastic diplegic CP.Methods. The study included 20 children with spastic diplegic CP. Subjects were randomly assigned into two groups: control group (40 min basic physiotherapy programme) and experimental group (20 min basic physiotherapy programme and 20 min dual motor task training). Physiotherapy was applied for 3 weeks (5 times a week). Balance and functional mobility were assessed at baseline and at the end.Results. There was a statistically significant improvement in balance and functional mobility in both the control and experimental groups after three weeks of physiotherapy (p < 0.05). Comparing two groups with each other, there was a statistically significant improvement in the experimental group on balance and walking (p < 0.05).Conclusion. Dual task training can be used as an effective intervention to improve balance and walking in children with spastic diplegic CP.Keywords: motor tasks, cerebral palsy, balance, functional mobility.

“…There are several studies conducted on investigating the recovery of gait abilities, one of them being focused on the performance of dual-task training to improve gait and balance [2,3,9]. Dual-task training is comprised of the performance of one basic task with the addition of one or another task simultaneously [11]. Current studies with stroke patients have shown improvements in gait velocity, stride length, cadence and other spatio-temporal parameters [12].…”

“…If automatic movement arises through repetitive gait training, the effectiveness of cognitive interference training, dual-task performance focused on task-oriented gait training may improve gait speed and coordination [17,18]. In addition, other studies have reported the improvement of gait and balance through training with use of a ball or rings, or obstacle courses or the performance of dual-task training with virtual reality have reported improved balance and gait in persons affected by stroke [9,11,12,15,16]. Wulf et al [19] reported that training with use of a balance pad and/or similar equipment using an external focus was more effective on producing postural control compared to training with an internal focus using one's ankles.…”

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of ball kicking dual task gait training with the addition of a cognitive task with general treadmill gait training (TGT) on gait speed, gait endurance, functional gait, balance and balance confidence in patients with chronic hemiparetic stroke. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Methods: Fourteen stroke patients who volunteered to participate in this study were randomly divided into two groups with seven patients in each group: ball kicking dual task training (DTT) group and TGT group. The DTT group received ball kicking DTT with cognitive tasks consisted of three stages and the TGT group received TGT using normal walking speed, respectively, for 30 minutes per day 3 days per week for 4 weeks. Outcome assessments were made with the 10-meter walking test (10MWT), 6-minute walking test (6MWT), functional gait assessment (FGA), Berg balance scale (BBS), timed up and go test (TUG), and the activities-specific balance confidence (ABC) scale. Results: The DTT group showed more significant improvement in the 10MWT, 6MWT, FGA, BBS, TUG, and ABC than the TGT group (p<0.05). In addition, within groups comparison showed significant improvement in all variables (p<0.05). Conclusions: The findings suggest that both ball kicking dual task gait training and TGT improve gait performance and balance in patients with chronic hemiparetic stroke. However, ball kicking dual task gait training results showed more favorable outcomes than TGT for chronic hemiparetic stoke patients.
