Abstract:- Background and Purpose: Diabetic stroke patients have a higher mortality rate than stroke patients without Diabetes Mellitus. This is not only significantly increases the risk of stroke, but also is a predictor of reduced survival following stroke. Diabetes Mellitus may affect the rate of recovery of neurologic function following a stroke. Treadmill exercise training increases insulin sensitivity in diabetic stroke patients. This study is an attempt to reduce the fasting and post prandial blood glucose level by treadmill exercise training on diabetic stroke patients. Methods: 30 subjects with diabetic hemi paresis in the age of 45-60 years are included in the study. All subjects underwent 6 weeks of treadmill walking for 60 minutes twice daily. Quality of life index questionnaire score, fasting and post prandial blood glucose levels measured by glucometer on first day before treatment and at the end of 6 weeks of treatment are analyzed. Results: The data are analyzed by paired t test with level of significance at 0.05. The Mean ± SD for Fasting blood glucose is 180.83 ± 38.01 and 133.16 ± 23.83 for before and after intervention with p value less than 0.001. The Mean ± SD for Post prandial blood glucose level is 357.80 ± 53.02 and 226.50 ± 37.16 for before and after intervention with p value less than 0.001. The Mean ± SD for Diabetic quality of life score is 247.73 ± 54.83 and 379.16 ± 47.58 before and after intervention with p value equal to 0.001. Conclusion: This study finding suggests that treadmill training is effective for reducing the high blood glucose level and improving the quality of life in diabetic stroke individuals.
