Mechanically assisted walking with body weight support results in more independent walking and better walking ability compared with usual walking training in non-ambulatory adults early after stroke: a systematic review
Questions
In subacute, non-ambulatory individuals after stroke, does mechanically assisted walking with body weight support result in more independent walking or better walking ability than usual walking training in the short term? Are any benefits maintained in the longer term? Is it detrimental to walking in terms of walking speed?
Design
A systematic review with meta-analysis of randomised studies with a Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) score > 4.
Participants
Non-ambulatory adults ≤ 12 weeks after stroke.
Intervention
Any type of mechanically assisted walking with body weight support.
Outcome measures
Independent walking (ie, proportion of independent walkers), walking ability (eg, 0 to 5 Functional Ambulation Category, FAC) and walking speed.
Results
Fifteen studies involving 1,014 participants (mean PEDro score 6.4) were included. In the short term, mechanically assisted walking with body weight support resulted in more independent walking (RD 0.19, 95% CI 0.11 to 0.26) and better walking ability (MD 0.8 on the FAC, 95% CI 0.5 to 1.0) compared with the same amount of usual walking training. In the longer term, it resulted in better walking ability (MD 0.6 on the FAC, 95% CI 0.2 to 1.1). Mechanically assisted walking with body weight support does not appear to be detrimental to walking speed in the short term (MD 0.13 m/s, 95% CI 0.03 to 0.22) or longer term (MD 0.11 m/s, 95% CI 0.00 to 0.22).
Conclusion
This review provides high-certainty evidence that mechanically assisted walking with body weight support results in more independent walking and better walking ability in individuals with stroke who are non-ambulatory subacutely compared with usual walking training. Given the importance of achieving walking in the short term, clinicians are encouraged to use this intervention.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Physiotherapy is the official journal of the Australian Physiotherapy Association. It aims to publish high-quality research with a significant impact on global physiotherapy practice. The journal's vision is to lead the field in supporting clinicians to access, understand, and implement research evidence that will enhance person-centred care. In January 2008, the Journal of Physiotherapy became the first physiotherapy journal to adhere to the ICMJE requirement of registering randomized trials with a recognized Trial Registry. The journal prioritizes systematic reviews, clinical trials, economic analyses, experimental studies, qualitative studies, epidemiological studies, and observational studies. In January 2014, it also became the first core physiotherapy/physical therapy journal to provide free access to editorials and peer-reviewed original research. The Australian Physiotherapy Association extended their support for excellence in physiotherapy practice by sponsoring open access publication of all Journal of Physiotherapy content in 2016. As a result, all past, present, and future journal articles are freely accessible, and there are no author fees for publication.
