Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA)

  it is a stroke-specific, performance-based impairment index.Scale items are scored on the basis of ability to complete the item using a 3-point ordinal scale where 0=cannot perform, 1=performs partially and 2=performs fully

  12 Months

• The Chedoke Arm and Hand Activity Inventory (CAHAI)

  It is used to assess functional ability of the paretic arm and hand. This test consists of 13 functional tasks: open a jar of coffee, draw a line with a ruler, put toothpaste on a toothbrush, cut medium consistency putty,pour a glass of water wring out a washcloth,clean a pair of eyeglasses,zip up a zipper,botton up 5 buttons,dry back with a towel,place a container on a table and carry a bag up the stairs.

Interventions

Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

patient's unaffected hand is tied with a triangular bandage or splint and the patient asks to perform the exercise through the affected hand. for up to 6 hours a day for 5days week /4 weeks and the patient nonparetic arm restrained from the use by having the patient placing a mitt on the hand or a sling on the unaffected hand, forcing the use of the affected limb to promote purposeful movements when performing functional tasks.

Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy

Mirror Therapy OTHER

In this group training was given for 45min a day for 5 days a week for 4 weeks. Mirror box which was of 18×24inch \[was placed on the learning table and exercises were carried out by the patient looking into the mirror where an unaffected limb is placed in front of the mirror, through looking into the mirror patient assumes the reflection of the unaffected limb as the paretic limb. Exercises performed were hand opening and closing, wrist extension and flexion, squeezing, opposition, the calculation
