简要总结
To determine effects of proprioceptive activities on hand function in chronic stroke patients
详细描述
Stroke is causing the long term disability worldwide. The patient in the chronic phase of stroke may suffer from long term hand disability along with both motor and sensory dysfunction. That causes hindrance in performing the ADLs. As the hand is the important organ performing major functions of daily living .So the early restoration of the motor as well as sensory function is necessary.
The motive of this study IS to determine effects of proprioceptive activities on hand function in chronic stroke patients. Total 40 chronic stroke patients will be included in the study. They will be randomly allocated in two groups by lottery method that fulfills the inclusion criteria of the study. In group A patients will be recruited and proprioceptive activities will be given to the affected hand for 3 days /week for 2 months. On the other hand in group B conventional therapy will be given for 3 days /week for 2 months. In sensory training graphesthesia and stereognosis will be checked by modified subtest of sensory integration praxis test and Byl-Cheney-Boczai Sensory Discriminator Test respectively. The motor task will be assessed by the wolf motor test. As a baseline treatment hot pack for 15 min will be given to both of the groups

研究组 & 干预措施
experimental group
The patients in the experimental group will get the hot pack initially for 15 minutes .Then for proprioception training of graphesthesia for 15 mints, therapist repeatedly draw some letter, figures, digit, shapes ,alphabets on the palm of hand/digits of patient.For Stereognosis therapist command the patient to close his or her eyes, then on affected hand put some different kinds of objects and shapes then ask the patient to identify that object, the object might be of any kind like a key, rubber a block or a coin etc. Total time for stereognosis was 15 minutes. For motor training patients were guided by the therapist to use his or her affected hand more. Then patient practiced some task like drawing writing his or her name, folding the towel or a paper, eating something with different speed, picking small objects like nails and put them in to small boxes, organize the cards etc. This training session required 15 minutes.
干预措施: experimental group (Combination Product)
conventional treatment
baseline treatment of hot pack for 15 minutes will be given.The patients in this group will get muscle strengthening exercise of the hand, Range of motion, and stretching of the hand muscles, 3 sets of 8 repetitions were given to the patient, gap of 2 minutes will be given between regimes. For 20 minutes this session will be given to patient by the therapist.
干预措施: conventional treatment (Combination Product)
结局指标
主要结局
Byl-Cheney-Boczai Sensory Discriminator Test
时间窗: 15 minutes
For the stereognosis
Graphesthesia (modified sub test of sensory integration praxis test)
时间窗: 15 minutes
to assess Graphesthesia
wolf motor assessment scale
时间窗: 15 minutes
The scale was categorized from 0-5.0 represents that UE doesn't attempt tested.1 represents that the UE being tested does not participate functionally.2 represents that UE does movements minor readjustment or change in position, but requires assistance.3 represents UE does movement but movements is effected to certain degree by synergy or performance gradually or with effort.4 represents that movement was close to normal slight slower lack accuracy.5 represents that movement seems to be accurate
