Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Motricity Motor Scale
Time Frame: 5 minutes
Index for motor impairment after stroke
5 minutes
Trunk Impairment Scale
Time Frame: 10 minutes
It consists of 3 subscales of static and dynamic sitting balance and trunk coordination
10 minutes
The Box and Block Test
Time Frame: 2 minutes
The Box and Block Test (BBT) measures unilateral gross manual dexterity. It is a quick, simple and inexpensive test. It can be used with a wide range of populations, including clients with stroke.
2 minutes
The Nine-Hole Peg Test
Time Frame: 2 minutes
The Nine-Hole Peg Test (9HPT) is used to measure finger dexterity in patients with various neurological diagnoses. Administered by asking the client to take the pegs from a container, one by one, and place them into the holes on the board, as quickly as possible.
2 minutes
Treatment Satisfaction Scale
Time Frame: 30 sec.
The amount of satisfaction that a patient feels ranges across a continuum from none (0) to an extreme amount of satisfaction (10).
30 sec.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Global Rating of Change Scale
Time Frame: 30 sec.
Global Rating of Change (GRC) scales provide a means of measuring self-perceived change in health status.
30 sec.
