However, early-phase pilot studies suggest that dual-task interventions may reduce CMI during gait performance in community-dwelling stroke survivors.
To examine the contribution of walking endurance, subjective balance confidence, and fear avoidance behavior to community reintegration among community-dwelling stroke survivors.
Consequently, impairment of walking has been mentioned most frequently (39 90%) as the most important disabling condition in community-dwelling stroke survivors and improving walking ability has been found to be the best way to reduce dependency [11, 12].
Conclusion: Almost 50% of the community-dwelling stroke population lived with sequelae of stroke such that, unless there was a full-time and able-bodied caregiver at home, they needed some form of home help.
