简要总结
It will be a randomized control trial with 112 patients which will be divided into two groups of 56 patients in each group. Participants will recruit through convenient sampling techniques.
Outcome measures are range of motion and spasticity. The protocol was implemented three days per week for eight consecutive weeks. Data will be collected at baseline and 8 th week after intervention.
详细描述
Objective of the study is to compare the effects of the agonist contract-relax technique versus the antagonist contract-relax technique on spasticity and range of motion in individuals with chronic stroke.
Null hypothesis (H0):
There are no comparative effects of agonist contact-relax technique and the antagonist contract-relax technique on spasticity and ankle range of motion in chronic patients.
The alternate hypothesis (HA):
There are comparative effects of agonist contract-relax technique and the antagonist contract-relax technique on spasticity and ankle range of motion in chronic stroke patients.

结局指标
主要结局
Modified Ashworth Scale.
时间窗: it will measure change in spasticity at baseline and at 8th week
The assessment involves extending the limb of the parent from a state of utmost flexion to utmost extension, identifying the point at which initial mild resistance was encountered. Following that, the modified Ashworth Scale is employed while transitioning the limb from extension to flexion. Interrater reliability studies utilizing the MAS have yielded varied results, ranging from moderate to good.
universal goniometer
时间窗: it will measure change in range of motion at baseline and at 8th week
The universal goniometer (UG) is a widely employed tool for assessing range of motion.Range of motion refers to the complete extent of movement possible at a specific joint. In a normal ankle, the range of motion typically spans from around 20ºof dorsiflexion to 50º of plantar flexion. For normal walking, a combined motion of approximately 24º to 30º (including both dorsiflexion and plantar flexion) is required.
