Effect of gait training using rhythmic auditory stimulation on gait speed in older adults admitted to convalescent rehabilitation wards: A study protocol for a pilot randomized controlled clinical trial

Background: Decreased walking speed in older patients admitted to convalescent rehabilitation wards (CRWs) is one of the factors that inhibit home discharge. Therefore, interventions to improve gait speed in older patients admitted to CRWs are important, and rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) may b...
