Background: Persistent gait asymmetry, impaired balance, reduced lower-limb motor control, and dependence in daily activities are common consequences of chronic stroke. Objective: To determine whether real-time visual feedback–based task-oriented gait training may provide additional benefits over conventional gait training for gait symmetry, balance, lower-limb motor recovery, functional mobility, and functional independence. Methods: This assessor-blinded, two-arm parallel-group randomized controlled trial model uses three sessions per week for eight weeks, with assessments at baseline, week 4, week 8, and follow-up. Results: The numerical results presented in this manuscript are explicitly illustrative/simulated and are included only to demonstrate publication-ready statistical reporting, tables, and figures; they are not genuine participant data. Conclusion: The proposed intervention is clinically relevant and warrants evaluation using genuine participant-level data and prespecified statistical analysis.
