Descending stairs demands attention and neuromuscular control, especially with dual-tasking.
Studies have demonstrated that stroke often degrades a survivor’s ability to descend stairs.
Tai Chi has been shown to improve dual-tasking performance of healthy older adults, but no such study has been conducted in stroke survivors.
This study investigated the effect of Tai Chi training on dual-tasking performance that involved stepping down and compared it with that of conventional exercise among stroke survivors.
Subjects were randomized into Tai Chi (n=9), conventional exercise (n=8), and control (n=9) groups.
Those in the former two groups received 12-week training.
Assessments included auditory Stroop test, stepping down test, and dual-tasking test involving both simultaneously.
They were evaluated before training (time-1), after training (time-2), and one month after training (time-3).
Tai Chi group showed significant improvement in the auditory Stroop test from time-1 to time-3 and the performance was significantly better than that of the conventional exercise group in time-3.
No significant effect was found in the stepping down task or dual-tasking in the control group.
These results suggest a beneficial effect of Tai Chi training on cognition among stroke survivors without compromising physical task performance in dual-tasking.
The effect was better than the conventional exercise group.
Nevertheless, further research with a larger sample is warranted.
