I2-CoRT WTP9: Upper Extremity Motor Intervention, Use of Hand Orthosis in People Post-stroke
- Conditions
- StrokeUpper Extremity Dysfunction
- Interventions
- Other: Additional weight at hand
- Registration Number
- NCT04265079
- Lead Sponsor
- Maastricht University
- Brief Summary
The upper extremity kinematics of people post-stroke will be monitored with/without an inactive hand orthosis (intervention: added weight to hand) during ARAT, Fugl-Meyer, and Box and Blocks tests. Measurements will occur right after inclusion and repeated once after 7-8 weeks. Upper extremity kinematics and test scores will indicate the influence of additional weight to hand as a possible confounder when, in the future, the hand orthosis would be used as a therapy tool.
