Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Functional Independence Measure (FIM) scale1 year

Functional Independence Measure scale assesses the patients ability to carry out activities of daily living. At the follow up of 1 year, every patient in this study will be reevaluated on this scale.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Manual Muscle Testing (MMT)1 year

Manual muscle testing is a procedure for the evaluation of the function and strength of individual muscles and muscle groups based on the effective performance of a movement in relation to the forces of gravity and manual resistance. On the follow up after 1 year, every patient will be reassessed on MMT to record changes in their muscle strength after stem cell therapy.
