Abstract
Methods: Quasi-experimental study design was chosen to fulfil aims of the study. 15 samples were selected by simple random selection process from inpatient SCI unit of Centre for the Rehabilitation of the Paralysed (CRP) from July 2017 to September, 2017. Neurological function was measured by ASIA (American Spinal Injury Association) scale, mobility capacity by using Spinal Cord Independence Measurement (SCIM) scale, gait speed was measured by using 10 m Walk Test (10MWT) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) was used for measuring balance ability. Sociodemographic data were collected by a semi-structured questionnaire. Data was analyzed by using SPSS software version 20 which focused through descriptive statistics and paired t-test.
