Effects of Boxing Training on Upper Limb Function, Balance and Quality of Life in Stroke Patients
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Boxing training and Task Oriented Training for Stroke. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The World Health Organization's (WHO) definition of stroke is a clinical syndrome characterized by rapidly developing clinical signs of focal (or global) disturbance of cerebral function lasting more than 24 hours or leading to death with no apparent cause other than a vascular origin'.Stroke has further three types i.e. ischemic, hemorrhagic, and transient ischemic stroke. As most gestures in daily life involve the upper limbs and hands, patients who cannot use their hands not only suffer from severe physical and psychological pain but also encounter difficulties in the activities of daily living that primarily involve upper limb function. Stroke patients have various problems such as asymmetrical posture, abnormal body balance, and decreased ability to move the weight.
