Effects of ROOD's Sensory Motor Training Along With Constraint Induced Movement Therapy in Sub-acute Stroke
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Rood's Group and Conventional Physical Therapy Group for Stroke. Completed, enrolled 29 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the effects of ROOD's sensory motor training along with Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) in sub-acute stroke. Two randomized groups of patients with stroke were treated with conservative physical therapy and the experimental group was given ROOD's SMT and CIMT in conjunction with conservative rehabilitation. Both, male and female patients meeting the inclusion criteria were included. Patients having other neurological disease, chronic disease, not compatible being participates in CIMT or with any surgical intervention were excluded.
