Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) scores

    Difference in FMA-UE scores (range =0-66, with lower scores indicating more severe limb dysfunction) between baseline and 90 days after randomization.

    90 days after randomization

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores

    90 days after randomization

  • FMA-UE scores

    30 days after randomization

  • The Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Lower Extremity (FMA-LE)scores

    90 days after randomization

  • National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores

    90 days after randomization

  • The Barthel index of activity of daily living (BI)

    90 days after randomization

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
