Summary

This study tests whether adding real-time biofeedback (like visual or audio cues) to balance exercises helps people who had a stroke more than standard training alone. 66 chronic stroke patients in Lahore will be split into three groups: task-specific training with biofeedback, without biofeedback, or conventional physical therapy. Over 12 weeks, researchers will measure balance, fall risk, and daily function to see which approach works best.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Task-specific training with or without biofeedback
What this could lead to: If it works, this could point toward a simple, low-cost way to improve balance and reduce falls in people who have had a stroke.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage trial in one city, so results may not apply widely. Biofeedback may not add much benefit over standard training.
