Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Subjects in the experimental group will practice the components of sit-to-stand (STS) movement, followed by STS training for 20 minutes, once a day 2 times a week for 8 weeks. Components of part-practice include backward foot placement followed by forward trunk bending, movement of the knees forward, and extension of hips and knees for final standing alignment. Each of these components will be practiced 10 times before doing sit-to-stand as a whole movement. Subjects will do the exercise in the Physiotherapy . Outpatient Department (OPD) of Hospital Rehabilitasi Cheras under the guidance of a trained Physiotherapist . Each of the treatment session will be a one-to-one session. Alternate allocation method will be used to allocate participants into an experimental or control group based on their age and disability level so that both group will have equal subjects with all age and disability level.

Statistical methods / analysis
Statistical software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0 will be used for data analysis. Descriptive analysis will be done to analyze socio-demographic data and will be reported as frequency, mean (standard deviation), or median (interquartile range). A mixed model Analysis of Covariance (ANOVA) will be used to analyze the intervention effects within time points, within groups, and between groups. A value of P < 0.05 is considered statistically significant. The data collected will be analyzed using an intention-to-treat basis.
