Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to assess and determine the influence of pelvic inclination on sit to stand task in stroke patients.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Stroke Other: Sagittal pelvic tilt assessment

Detailed Description:
There is a crucial need to have a better understanding of effect of pelvic inclination on sit to stand activity and to know the important factors to be considered to improve the patients' treatment and performance. Forty five participants are recruiting to assess the pelvic tilt angles in stroke patients during sitting position and to analyze the influence of pelvic tilt angles on ability to perform sit to stand task during rising from a chair in stroke patients.

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Experimental group1
15 stroke patients with right side affection, their age ranged form 45 to 60 were recruited to assess the pelvic tilt angles from sitting position and from the dynamic task of sit to stand.
 Other: Sagittal pelvic tilt assessment
Each group passed by three phases of assessment. Firstly assess the pelvic tilt angles from sitting position. Secondly assess the pelvic tilt angles from dynamic sit to stand task. Thirdly, assess the ability to perform sit to stand task of each participant.
Experimental group2
15 stroke patients with left side affection, their age ranged form 45 to 60 were recruited to assess the pelvic tilt angles from sitting position and from the dynamic task of sit to stand.
 Other: Sagittal pelvic tilt assessment
Each group passed by three phases of assessment. Firstly assess the pelvic tilt angles from sitting position. Secondly assess the pelvic tilt angles from dynamic sit to stand task. Thirdly, assess the ability to perform sit to stand task of each participant.
Control group
15 Normal subjects without any diseases or dysfunctions , their age ranged form 45 to 60 were recruited to assess the pelvic tilt angles from sitting position and from the dynamic task of sit to stand.
 Other: Sagittal pelvic tilt assessment
Each group passed by three phases of assessment. Firstly assess the pelvic tilt angles from sitting position. Secondly assess the pelvic tilt angles from dynamic sit to stand task. Thirdly, assess the ability to perform sit to stand task of each participant.


Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. posterior pelvic tilt angle [ Time Frame: One shot (Each participant was assessed immediately and it takes about 15 minutes) ]
    Posterior pelvic tilt angle measured by the palpation meter (PALM) inclinometer. It was assessed as one shot in one assessment session.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Pelvic Inclination analysis in sit to stand task [ Time Frame: One shot (Each participant is assessed immediately and it takes about 10 minutes) ]
    Pelvic Inclination analysis in sit to stand task by Two dimensional video based motion analysis in three phases of sit to stand task. It will be assessed as one shot in one assessment session.
