PURPOSE: This study was aimed at assessing the effect of lumbar stabilization exercise on the pulmonary function of stroke patients. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The subjects were randomly allocated into lumbar stabilization exercise group and a general physical therapy group. The program consisted of 30-min sessions conducted 3 days a week for 8 weeks. Pulmonary function was assessed based on lung performance parameters, including forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume at 1 second, ratio of forced expiratory volume at 1 second to forced vital capacity, and peak expiratory flow. RESULTS: In the assessment of pulmonary function, the values of all the lung performance parameters were significantly increased in the lumbar stabilization exercise group but were significantly decreased in the general physical therapy group. CONCLUSION: These results indicate that lumbar stabilization exercise had a more positive effect on pulmonary function than general physical therapy.
