Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Other neurological disorders that cause motor deficits, such as Parkinson's disease, peripheral neuropathy, and diabetes mellitus.
  • Cognitive impairment resulting in cooperation difficulties (a score of ≤24 in the Mini-Mental State Examination).

Other

  • Severe aphasia, resulting in communication difficulties that could influence the intervention and outcome measures.
  • Severe pain impeding upper extremity rehabilitation (Numeric Pain Rating Scale score ≥7).
  • Significant visual dysfunction.
  • severe spasticity (contracture).

Who the study is looking for

  • Forty-five stroke patients both genders (male and female)
  • Patients Diagnosed with first-time ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke by their treating neurologists and confirmed by MRI scan.
  • Middle cerebral artery stroke patient.
  • Their ages range from 55-65 years.
  • All patients were reported medically stable by their neurologist with a stroke incidence range between 6 and 24 months.
  • The affected UE scored \[1+\&2\] on the modified Ashworth scale (MAS).
  • Patients had normal sensation of the affected UE, as measured by the Nottingham Sensory Assessment (NSA) scale (score 2 for tactile sensation and kinesthesia and score 3 for (stereognosis).

Age in the registry: 55 years to 65 years · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
