Hand impairment post-stroke is a common condition that contributes to disability around the world. An effective intervention is required to optimize functional outcomes in the rehabilitation of hand-in-stroke patients.
Thirty male/female stroke patients in the sub-acute phase were randomly assigned in to the two groups (study and control) in sets of three. The study group (A) (n = 15) underwent a hand rehabilitation program using the computerized glove combined with the selected hand program. The control group (B) (n = 15) received only the selected hand program. The treatment schedules for 18 consecutive treatment sessions, three times per week.
