Comparative Study of Action Observation Training Versus Task Oriented Training on Reaching in Patients With Stroke

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 27 Aug 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Stroke is characterized by a sudden onset of localized or generalized brain dysfunction, with symptoms persisting for at least 24 hours or resulting in death. In the chronic phase following a stroke, hand dysfunction is commonly observed, often characterized by reduced finger strength and abnormal hand flexion patterns. Reaching is a crucial aspect of daily tasks, including activities like drinking, interacting with a touch screen, or pressing elevator buttons.
