简要总结
This study is to investigate the effects of exergame on shoulder pain and motor function of upper extremity in individuals with stroke.
详细描述
Background and Purpose: Stroke is a major cerebrovascular disorder causing various symptoms in the world. A substantial portion of those surviving from stroke typically experience neurological sequelae and stroke-related complications. Post stroke shoulder pain is a sensory disturbance is one of a common complication in patients with chronic stroke and may adversely affect patients' quality of life. Nowadays, exergame has been explored as an adjunct therapy for the management of pain for a number of conditions. This study is to investigate the effects of exergame on shoulder pain and motor function of upper extremity in individuals with stroke. Method: This is a randomized controlled trail. Sixty subjects with poststroke shoulder pain will be recruited and randomized into either the exergame (experimental) group or conventional (control) group. The intervention is one hour per day, four or five days per week for three weeks. The primary outcomes are Visual Analogue Scale, and Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form. The secondary outcomes are Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Limb Extremity, Wolf motor function test and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index.

结局指标
主要结局
Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form
时间窗: Change from Baseline at 7 weeks
To assess the severity of pain and the impact of pain on daily functions. The Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form assess severity of pain, impact of pain on daily function, location of pain, pain medications and amount of pain relief in the past 24 hours or the past week. It is available in a short (nine items) form.
Visual analogue scale
时间窗: Change from Baseline at 7 weeks
The VAS provides a continuous scale for magnitude estimation and consists of a straight line, the ends of which are defined in terms of the extreme limits of pain experience. VAS is a straight horizontal line of fixed length, usually 100 mm. The ends are defined as the extreme limits of the parameter to be measured (pain) orientated from the left (worst) to the right (best).
次要结局
- Wolf motor function test(Change from Baseline at 7 weeks)
- Fugl-Meyer Assessment(Change from Baseline at 7 weeks)
