Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Stroke
Interventions
Other: cognitive multisensory rehabilitation
Other: the selected exercise program
Registration Number
NCT05485740
Lead Sponsor
October 6 University
Brief Summary

PURPOSE:

To investigate the effect of cognitive multisensory rehabilitation program on upper extremity function in stroke patients.

BACKGROUND: Cognitive Multisensory Rehabilitation (CMR) is a promising therapy for upper limb recovery in stroke, as the CMR considered an effective therapy for motor recovery for adults with stroke

Detailed Description

Thirty patients with stroke The patients will randomly be divided into two equal groups; the control group which received the selected exercise program and the study group received the same exercise training program in addition to cognitive multisensory rehabilitation program, three times per week for 2 months. The evaluation methods Action research arm test (ARAT), Fugl-Myer Assessment upper extremity (FMA-UE), manual function test and Motor Evaluation Scale for Upper Extremity

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Action research arm test8 weeks

one of the most commonly used upper limb outcomes that measure the activity level in stroke rehabilitation studies consists of a total of 19 functional materials and four subtests as follows: grasp, grip, pinch, and gross movement

Manual function test8 weeks

is a performance-based assessment for upper limbs with paresis caused by stroke The MFT is graded on a four-level scale. The total MFT score can range from 0 (severely impaired) to 32 (full function)

Fugl Myer Assessment upper extremity8 weeks

is a scale consisting of 30 items assessing motor function and 3 items assessing reflex function The FMA-UE scores of 0 through 22 represent no upper-limb capacity; scores of 23 through 31 represent poor capacity; scores of 32 through 47 represent limited capacity; scores of 48 through 52 represent notable capacity; and scores of 53 through 66 represent full upper-limb capacity, total sensation UE score 12, passive joint motion UE score 24 and UE joint pain scores 24

Motor Evaluation Scale for Upper Extremity in Stroke patients8 weeks

is a scale that measures the quality of movement of the hemiparetic upper extremity The maximum total score for the MESUPES is 58. The MESUPES-arm comprises 8 items of shoulder and elbow performance, with a maximum score of 40. Each item is scored from 0 (inability to adapt muscle tone to the movement) to 5 (ability to correct and complete motion without help)
