Brief Summary
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to learn about the effects of Robotic Assisted Gait Training (RAGT) combined with traditional physical therapy in subacute stroke patients. The main question it aims to answer is: \- Does RAGT combined with traditional physical therapy improve gait and functional performance in subacute stroke patients compared to traditional physical therapy alone? Participants who are subacute stroke patients will be randomly assigned to receive either both RAGT and traditional physical therapy or only traditional physical therapy. Their gait and functional performance will be assessed during the study period.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Diagnosed with stroke (ischemic or hemorrhagic) confirmed by medical imaging. * Subacute phase of stroke (onset within 1 to 3 months). * Moderate to good standing balance ability. * Sufficient cognitive ability to understand the study and follow instructions. * Able to participate in rehabilitation training during the study period. Exclusion Criteria: * Body weight over 90 kg. * Presence of other neurological disorders. * Severe cardiovascular disease or other health conditions affecting mobility. * Significant lower limb pain, joint contracture, or spasticity (Modified Ashworth Scale score \> 3) that impairs walking. * Diagnosed with cardiopulmonary disease that contraindicates exercise training. * Cognitive impairment that prevents understanding of training instructions or completion of questionnaires. * Inability to complete the rehabilitation training protocol.
