Detailed Description
On the first day, participants will be asked to sign the informed consent form and the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be reconfirmed. Subsequently, manual grip strength, terminal opposition grip strength, subterminal opposition grip strength, subterminal opposition grip strength, subterminal-lateral grip strength and tridigital grip strength will be assessed using a JAMAR dynamometer. After this, the CAVIDACE quality of life scale and the FIM-FAM functional independence scale will be completed. Finally, motor function assessment will be carried out with the ARAT.
After the end of the treatment, the reassessment will be carried out and the initial assessments will be repeated. Subsequently, study participants will be followed up telematically, assessing quality of life using the CAVIDACE scale. Follow-up will be carried out 3 and 6 months after the end of treatment.
The data collected will be stored in a database created for this purpose with the Microsoft Access programme. Subsequently, they will be analysed using the SPSS/PC statistical programme. An exploratory analysis of all the information collected will be carried out for descriptive purposes; qualitative variables will be analysed using percentages, while quantitative variables will be analysed using mean and standard deviation. In both cases, the confidence intervals will be 95%.
After verifying whether the distribution of the data is normal or not, the hypothesis tests indicated in each case will be applied (χ2, Student's t, ANOVA, etc.). A significance level of 0.05 will be used for hypothesis testing. All analyses will be performed on an intention-to-treat basis.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: FES + conventional treatment
60 minutes per session, 5 sessions per week with 30 minutes of task-specific training using Functional Electrical Stimulation applyed by Fesia Grasp device and 30 minutes of Robotic-Assisted Therapy using Amadeo robot for hand rehabilitation
|
Functional Electrical Stimulation consist on applying a current on the damaged muscles when the patient is doing a task that requires them.
120 repetitions will be made on the 6 first sessions and 180 repetitions will be done after the sixth session
Other Names:
The hand Robotic-Assisted Therapy will be applyed using the AMADEO robot for hand rehabilitation by Tyromotion.
The protocol that will be used consists on 200 repetitions on the active-assisted mode with flexion and extension of all the finguers and 50 repetitions on the active mode.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Upper limb motor function
Time Frame: Change from Baseline in upper limb motor function at 6 weeks
|
the ability to learn or demonstrate the ability to acquire, maintain, modify and control voluntary postures and movement patterns with a goal framed motor behaviour.
It will be measured wit the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT).
This test asses the motor dexterity of the patient by 4 subtest based on functional movements (grasping, holding, clamping and gross movement
|
Change from Baseline in upper limb motor function at 6 weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Manual grip strength
Time Frame: Change from Baseline in manual grip strength at 6 weeks
|
strength is the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to generate tension during maximum dynamic or static effort in relation to the demands placed upon it.
In this way, the capacity of the flexor muscles of wrist and finguers will be measured using a manual dynamometer
|
Change from Baseline in manual grip strength at 6 weeks
|
Pinch strength
Time Frame: Change from Baseline in pinch strength at 6 weeks
|
strength is the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to generate tension during maximum dynamic or static effort in relation to the demands placed upon it.
In this way, the capacity of the flexor muscles of finguers will be measured using a pinch dynamometer
|
Change from Baseline in pinch strength at 6 weeks
|
Quality of life measured with CAVIDACE questionnaire (Evaluación de la Calidad de Vida de personas con Daño Cerebral)
Time Frame: Change from Baseline in quality of life at 6 weeks 3 months and 6 months
|
multidimensional phenomenon composed of 8 domains: emotional well-being, physical well-being, material well-being, self-determination, interpersonal relationships, social inclusion, personal development and individual rights.
CAVIDACE questionnaire will be used to asses quality of life.The scale score ranges from 0 to 120, with higher scores corresponding to a higher quality of life.
|
Change from Baseline in quality of life at 6 weeks 3 months and 6 months
|
Functional Independence
Time Frame: Change from Baseline in functional independence at 6 weeks
|
Functional independence refers to the person's ability to carry out functional activities of daily living without the assistance of others.
The FIM-FAM test will be used to asses the functional independence in this population
|
Change from Baseline in functional independence at 6 weeks
