"Reliability of Motricity Index Strength Assessments for Upper Extremity in Post Stroke Hemiparesis- a Correlation Study''

NCT02353520 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: RELIBILITY OF MOTRICITY INDEX
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 20
• Locations: 0 countries
• Sites: N/A

Brief Summary

Initially, a written consent was obtained from each participant. Then they became familiar with the procedure. For intrarater reliability, the first rater assessed the strength of pinch grip, elbow flexion and shoulder abduction in three different sessions at short intervals on same day in same environmental conditions. All the assessments were performed on the same day in three sessions. Assessment duration of all the sessions was 5 minutes. For inter-rater reliability, Before the beginning of Procedure both the raters were familiarized with the motricity index. The motricity index was administered by two different raters on the same subjects within 2 days who were blind to each others results and heir results were recorded separately.
