简要总结
This randomized controlled trial will be conducted at the Department of Physical Therapy, DHQ Hospital Sheikhupura, over duration of eleven months. A total of 20 stroke patients meeting inclusion criteria will be conveniently sampled and randomly assigned into two groups. Group A will receive somatosensory stimulation, while Group B will undergo task-based mirror therapy. Interventions will be administered five times per week for four weeks. Upper limb function will be assessed at baseline and post-intervention using the Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE), Action Research Arm Test (ARAT), and the Box and Block Test (BBT) to assess upper limb motor function, task based performance and gross motor dexterity. Data analysis will be performed using SPSS version 26.
