Materials & method: Based on the ACSM and the AHA guidelines, training modalities for stroke patients is determined to revile following two to six-week with at least 3-session per week or 10 sessions overall. Therefore, in agreement with past published studies, we assumed the duration of treadmill training as the number of minutes spent per session, week, and training week(s) in such exercise programs, which considered as a high duration or more than 10 sessions or low duration or less than 10 sessions.
Results: Our results demonstrated that there was a statistically significant reduction in neurological deterioration subsequent to the low duration (less than 10 sessions) interventions (p=0.0001). Regarding the high duration (more than 10 sessions), our results illustrated that there was a significant decline in neurological deterioration in stroke models (p=0.0001). However, these training-related modalities represented that regardless of duration protocols had a significant improvement on the neurological deterioration in rat stroke models (p=0.0001).
Conclusion: The findings of this study are totally in agreement with past published studies that displaying the high duration modalities may lead to improved neurological rehabilitations in stroke patients. Furthermore, our findings revealed that the high duration (more than 10 sessions) were more effective in comparison with other related training modalities in neurological deterioration rehabilitation.
