About

To compare the efficacy of CIMT and NDT among stroke patients To study the phenomena of transfer of training To study relationship between the MMSE score and stroke rehabilitation

Full description

This research aims to provide a comprehensive comparison of CIMT and NDT, supplemented by conventional physiotherapy, in the rehabilitation of upper extremity function among stroke patients. The findings will inform clinical practice, guiding the development of optimized, patient-centered rehabilitation strategies.

Enrollment: 10 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 40 to 65 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Participants will be aged 40-65 years and will have experienced either a hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke with hemiplegic presentation within the past 1 to 6 months. Additionally, they must have a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 23.

Exclusion criteria

• Participants with visual or auditory deficits, musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders, mental impairments, or a history of surgery will be excluded from the study.

Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy

Other group

Description:

The rehabilitation plan involves several components to promote the recovery of the affected limb. Initially, we will immobilize the unaffected limb using a constraint device such as a mitt or sling for about 90% of waking hours over a period of six weeks.

Treatment:

Other: Constraint-induced movement therapy

neurodevelopmental treatment

Other group

Description:

The rehabilitation approach includes hands-on techniques to guide the patient through normal movement patterns. By providing sensory input, we aim to improve motor control and postural alignment, using techniques such as handling, guiding, and assisting movements.

Treatment:

Other: Neurodevelopmental Treatment
