简要总结
Patients with stroke in the brain, due to central nervous system damage, lack of correct action patterns, limited joint movement of upper limbs, affecting the patient's performance. The Kinesio taping effect is to facilitate the muscle activity of upper limb. This program is intended to provide a treatment for patients with chronic stroke, and to observe their upper limb movements before and after using the Kinesio taping.
详细描述
Motor impairment is the main cause of disability after stroke, leading to major health problems. Research has shown that the most common consequence of stroke is the paresis of limbs.The ability to live independently after a stroke depends on the recovery of motor functions,particularly those of the upper limb.The core concept of the Kinesio taping is to influence the brain through the sensory input, stimulate the nervous system, and improve the motor performance of the stroke patient.

研究组 & 干预措施
KT group
The paretic upper limb is a common consequence of stroke that increases activity limitation.
干预措施: Kinesio taping (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) from pre to post-intervention.
时间窗: up to 30 minutes.
The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) is a stroke-specific, performance-based impairment index. It is designed to assess motor functioning, balance, sensation and joint functioning in patients with post-stroke hemiplegia.
Change in Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) from pre to post-intervention.
时间窗: up to 30 minutes.
The Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) is an evaluative measure to assess specific changes in limb function among post-stroke hemiplegia.
Change in Box and Block Test (BBT) from pre to post-intervention.
时间窗: up to 30 minutes.
The Box and Block Test (BBT) measures unilateral gross manual dexterity for stroke patients.
次要结局
- Change in Motor Activity Log (MAL) from pre to post-intervention.(up to 20 minutes.)
