The Effects of Neurorehabilitation Approaches Involving Different Upper Extremity Reactive Trainings in Stroke Patients
The Effects of Neurorehabilitation Approaches Involving Different Upper Extremity Reactive Trainings on Trunk Control, Fall Risk and Functionality in Stroke Patients: A Randomized Controlled Double-Blind Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 21 Jan 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of upper extremity training, which is expected for 5 seconds on the target during reaching forward, and to compare the effectiveness of neurorehabilitation interventions including reactive upper extremity trainings to be applied with different speeds and methods on body control, balance, gait, fall risk and spasticity in the individuals with stroke. The main questions it aims to answer is: • Is there a difference in the effects of neurorehabilitation interventions that include reactive upper extremity trainings applied at different speeds and methods on trunk control, balance, gait, fall risk and upper extremity spasticity? All participants will participate in the Bobath Approach-based neurorehabilitation program. This program will include scapula mobilization, trunk elongation training in sitting, and training lumbar stabilizers with bridge activity. * In addition to the neurorehabilitation program, the 1st and 2nd groups will be given a reaching exercise with LED light reactive training material (Fitpodz Light Trainer®). The LED light sensors, whose duration is set, will light up in green and red colors at random intervals. * Patients in the 1st group will be asked to reach forward and touch the sensor when the red light sensor is on, and pull back as soon as the sensor goes out. * The patients in the 2nd group will be asked to reach forward and touch the sensor when the green light sensor is lit, and to hold their hand on the sensor for 5 seconds and then withdraw it. With this method, it is aimed to create co-contraction in patients in Group 2. * In addition to the neurorehabilitation program, patients in the 3rd group (control group) will have functional stretches to the anterior, right and left while standing. Researchers will compare three groups to see if there a difference in the effects of neurorehabilitation interventions that include reactive upper extremity trainings applied at different speeds and methods.
