• 1 other identifier: 99-3385B
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 90
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The perceptual change on stroke patients during the movement recovery and its relationship with social participation still remain unclear. The purposes of this study are: 1) to observe the progression of perception deficit and 2) to understand the relationships among perception deficit and other functional indicators. A total of 90 stroke patients will be recruited. Each patient will receive three times evaluation, including perception tests, motor function test, daily living ability tests and social leisure participation questionnaires.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA)

  The FMA is used to evaluate stroke-related motor impairment, including upper- and lower-extremity movements, sensation, and balance. The whole FMA takes approximately 30 to 40 minutes to administer. The upper-extremity subscale of the FMA contains 33 items to assess motor impairment. Each item is scored on a 3-point ordinal scale (0-cannot perform, 1-performs partially, 2-performs fully and correctly). It is administered 3 times during the study period.

  Up to 3 years

Secondary Outcomes (13)

• Box and Block Test (BBT)

  Up to 3 years

• Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS)

  Up to 3 years

• Medical Research Council scale (MRC)

  Up to 3 years

• Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT)

  Up to 3 years

• Action Research Arm Test (ARAT)

  Up to 3 years
