Sponsor's own description

Introduction: Cerebrovascular damage (stroke) can generate motor or cognitive sequelae, making rehabilitation (such as the Pilates method) necessary to improve autonomy and quality of life. However, there are no studies on the efficacy of the method in the recovery of the upper limb and the improvement of autonomy after stroke.

Methods: Randomized double-blind clinical trial with patients with stroke in semi-acute period, randomized into experimental group (EG) (conventional rehabilitation and Pilates) or control group (CG) (conventional rehabilitation).

After randomization and initial evaluation, the intervention will begin (2 sessions per week, 3 months). After completion, there will be post-intervention assessment, and another one at 1 month.

Intervention: The CG will receive 30 minutes of physical therapy and 30 minutes of occupational therapy. The SG will receive 20 minutes of physiotherapy, 20 minutes of occupational therapy and 20 minutes of Pilates.

Assessment instruments: Mean Functional Independence; Functional Range Test; Timed 'Up and Go'; Nine Hole Peg Test; Box and Block Test; Arm, Shoulder and Hand Disabilities Questionnaire; Client Satisfaction Questionnaire.
