Clinical Trial: EFFECTS OF LOW-LEVEL LASER THERAPY ON SPASTICITY AND GAIT PARAMETERS IN CHRONIC STROKE PATIENTS WITH SPASTIC PLANTAR FLEXORS

U.S., Dec. 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07273591) titled 'EFFECTS OF LOW-LEVEL LASER THERAPY ON SPASTICITY AND GAIT PARAMETERS IN CHRONIC STROKE PATIENTS WITH SPASTIC PLANTAR FLEXORS' on Nov. 19.

Brief Summary: Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term disability worldwide. Many patients who survive a stroke experience muscle stiffness (called spasticity), especially in the ankle and foot muscles, which makes walking difficult and painful. Spasticity in the plantar flexor muscles those that help push the foot down can lead to poor balance, limited mobility, and increased risk of falls.

This study aims to explore the effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on spasticity and walkin...
