Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine how adding virtual reality assisted robotic treatment to traditional rehabilitation affects stroke patients' pain levels, functional status, and daily living activities.After conventional and robotic therapy Each patient was evaluated The Barthel Index (BI), the Fugl Meyer Assessment Upper Extremity (FMA-UE), and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were used to assess the patients' pain, daily living activities, and upper extremity motor function.

Conditions

the Effect of Virtual Reality on Stroke Rehabilitation

Keywords

stroke; upper extremity; robot-assisted therapy; armeo

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• FMA-UE scale

  FMA-UE evaluates the hemiparetic arm's mobility, including reflexes, the presence of synergies, and each of the upper limb's independent motions, including grasp. The dysmetria, coordination, and velocity of the patient are also evaluated using items on this scale. It is intended to assess muscle strength, reflex actions, and movement control in the upper extremity following a stroke. It has 33 elements and accepts values ranging from 0 to 2. Scores under 31 suggest a weak upper extremity, scores between 32 and 47 show a restricted upper extremity, scores between 48 and 52 indicate a noteworthy upper extremity, and scores between 53 and 66 indicate a full upper extremity.
