Sponsor's own description
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of closed kinetic chain (CKC) exercises and kinesio taping on knee joint proprioception, balance, functional performance, and quality of life in individuals with chronic stroke. Stroke often results in proprioceptive deficits and postural control impairments, which negatively impact rehabilitation outcomes. While CKC exercises are believed to enhance proprioceptive input through joint compression and sensory feedback, kinesio taping is used as a complementary intervention to support motor control and stability. The study will compare the effects of these two interventions to determine their potential roles in improving sensorimotor function and promoting functional independence in stroke rehabilitation. A total of 30 participants were enrolled in this study. Inclusion Criteria: * Patients who had a stroke more than 6 months ago, * Having a stable medical condition, * Ability to understand simple instructions, * Individuals with spasticity between grades 0-2 according to the Modified Ashworth Scale, * Individuals who can walk independently or with assistive devices, * Those who agree to participate and comply with the study procedures. Exclusion Criteria: * Severe cognitive impairment (MMSE score \< 24), * Orthopedic conditions that may cause knee pain during exercise, * Other neurological conditions that may affect proprioception, * Severe joint contracture, * Refusal or unwillingness to participate in the study.
