What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in finger flexor spasticity measured by Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS)
Time Frame: Baseline, 5 minutes after intervention
|
MAS will be performed to check changes of finger flexor spasticity after one session of treatment. The Modified Ashworth scale (MAS) scoring is categorical and ranges from 0 to 4, as follows: 0: No increase in muscle tone
|
Baseline, 5 minutes after intervention
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in finger extensors and hand function measured by Fugl Myer Assessment (FMA) Scale
Time Frame: Baseline, 5 minutes after intervention
|
FMA will be assessed to test function changes of finger extensors and hand function after one session of treatment. The upper limb motor function domain of the FMA scale will be used, and the score range for this domain is 0 to 66, with a higher score indicating better function. |
Baseline, 5 minutes after intervention
