N2  - To assess the relationship between trunk muscles and ventilatory function using computerized spirometer in stroke patients. One hundred ischemic stroke patients from both sexes (78 male and 22 female) were participated in the study. The age ranged from 40 - 60 years. Subjects were assigned into two equal groups; Group (A): Patients with acute ischemic stroke, Group (B): Patients with chronic ischemic stroke. For group (A), the results showed that there was a significant weak direct relationship between overall score of trunk impairment scale and peak expiratory flow and maximum voluntary ventilation, while there was no significant relationship between overall score of trunk impairment scale and forced expiratory volume in one second / forced vital capacity. For group (B), the results showed that there was a significant moderate direct relationship between overall score of trunk impairment scale and peak expiratory flow and maximum voluntary ventilation, while there was no significant relationship between overall score of trunk impairment scale and forced expiratory volume in one second/ forced vital capacity. The relationship between trunk muscles and ventilatory function appear to be more significant in chronic than acute stroke
