In stroke patients, the impairment of the trunk affects many functions negatively. For this reason training of the trunk is necessary in the early period. Taking into account of literature, various approaches have been used to improve sitting balance and trunk control such as conventional physiotherapy for stroke patients . Bobath concept is another method used for stroke rehabilitation. Trunk control is an important issue in the Bobath approach since the acute period. It seems that the Bobath method, which includes both approaches to increase postural control and sitting, as well as applications to increase the sensation, seems to be an appropriate method to improve body control in stroke patients. When the studies about stroke rehabilitation are investigated, it is seen that most of the studies included only chronic patients and Bobath concept did not adequately take place in literature about trunk training in acute stroke. The aim of this study is to determinate effectiveness of the Bobath based trunk training on trunk control in acute stroke patients.
