Sponsor's own description
This study explored two common rehabilitation strategies-Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) and Resistance Training (RT)-to help stroke survivors improve movement and function in their weaker arm. Stroke can often lead to reduced mobility in one arm, which affects a person's independence and quality of life. This randomized clinical trial involved 64 patients between the ages of 40 to 60 who had experienced a stroke and were in the sub-acute phase of recovery. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group received CIMT and the other received RT. The CIMT group had their unaffected arm restrained for 6 hours per day and completed 3 hours of supervised exercises using the affected arm. The RT group participated in structured strength training using weights to target shoulder, elbow, and wrist muscles. Both groups were treated five days a week for 12 weeks. Throughout the study, researchers assessed participants using three tools: the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) for arm function, the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) for motor recovery, and the Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL) for overall well-being. These assessments were conducted at baseline, week 4, week 8, and week 12.
