New exercise combo aims to steady stroke survivors
NCT ID NCT07381491
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding pelvic coordination exercises to standard core strengthening helps people recovering from a stroke improve their trunk control and balance. Researchers will compare this combined approach to standard trunk exercises alone in 38 adults aged 45-60 who had a stroke within the last six months. The goal is to find which method works better for regaining stability and reducing fall risk.
