| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| UTWC (control group) | Experimental | the control group performs the same tasks than the experimental group, but without healthy hand constraint/containment. |
|
| mCIMT | Experimental | The study is conducted over a period of 5 weeks of treatment, using a movement restriction time healthy upper extremity of 2 hours daily. The restriction applied in the study is performed with the closed hand position and thumb inside the fist through a transparent film that reaches the wrist joint. In periods mCIMT, monitored the activities designed to enhance their functionality, based on motivation, avoiding frustrations are made. |
