  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy
Diagnostic test: Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy
patient's unaffected hand is tied with a triangular bandage or splint and the patient asks to perform the exercise through the affected hand. for up to 6 hours a day for 5days week /4 weeks and the patient nonparetic arm restrained from the use by having the patient placing a mitt on the hand or a sling on the unaffected hand, forcing the use of the affected limb to promote purposeful movements when performing functional tasks.
Active Comparator: Mirror Therapy
Other: Mirror Therapy
In this group training was given for 45min a day for 5 days a week for 4 weeks. Mirror box which was of 18×24inch [was placed on the learning table and exercises were carried out by the patient looking into the mirror where an unaffected limb is placed in front of the mirror, through looking into the mirror patient assumes the reflection of the unaffected limb as the paretic limb. Exercises performed were hand opening and closing, wrist extension and flexion, squeezing, opposition, the calculation

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA)
Time Frame: 12 Months
it is a stroke-specific, performance-based impairment index.Scale items are scored on the basis of ability to complete the item using a 3-point ordinal scale where 0=cannot perform, 1=performs partially and 2=performs fully
12 Months
The Chedoke Arm and Hand Activity Inventory (CAHAI)
Time Frame: 12 months
It is used to assess functional ability of the paretic arm and hand. This test consists of 13 functional tasks: open a jar of coffee, draw a line with a ruler, put toothpaste on a toothbrush, cut medium consistency putty,pour a glass of water wring out a washcloth,clean a pair of eyeglasses,zip up a zipper,botton up 5 buttons,dry back with a towel,place a container on a table and carry a bag up the stairs.
