ABOUT 50% OF STROKE SURVIVORS IN THE WORLD EXPERIENCE DISABILITY AFTER HAVING A STROKE. ISCHEMIC STROKE PATIENTS WITH PHYSICAL DISABILITIES REQUIRE THERAPY / EXCERCISE UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. THE PERSEVERANCE OF PATIENTS DOING EXERCISES CAN IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF STROKE PATIENTS. THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY WAS: TO ANALYZE THE EFFECT OF EXERCISE PERSISTENCE ON QUALITY OF LIFE DURING THREE MONTHS POST-STROKE.
