Brief Summary
Hand impairment post-stroke is a common condition that contributes to disability around the world. An effective intervention is required to optimize functional outcomes in the rehabilitation of hand-in-stroke patients.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Quantitive Electro Encephalo Graphy
Used to assess Neuralplasticity (sleep Delta - Delta/Beta ratio )
6 weeks
Computerized glove software
Used to assess the Kinematic Data (Thumb, Index, Middle, ring, little, and average range of motion)
6 weeks
Action Research Arm Test
Used to assess Fine manual dexterity
6 weeks
Study Arms (2)
Study Group
EXPERIMENTALunderwent a hand rehabilitation program using the computerized glove combined with the selected hand program
Control Group
EXPERIMENTALreceived only the selected hand program
Interventions
The patient extended finger to reach from grey to green to red colour and heard the beep providing knowledge of result (KR), whereas the increase of range of finger extension reached every session provides knowledge of performance (KP). As the patient's performance improved, the range of their finger's movement will also be increased due to the augmented feedback provided to the patient and the therapist through the glove software
Distal key point of Bobath, approximation of affected arm, to control spasticity of wrist/ finger flexor (5 minutes). Dynamic splint to facilitate wrist and finger extension (10 repeat\*5 sets). Passive range of motion exercise (10 repeat\*5 sets) for each joint. Mud exercise (spherical, clyndrical , hook). Thera band exercises.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- The patient's age ranges from 45 to 65 years old with a minimum score of 24 points on the Mini Mental Test.
- Duration of illness ranges from (6weeks to 6 months) after stroke onset.
- first stroke.
- Upper limb spasticity ranged from 1+ to 2 according to the Modified Ashworth Scale.
- With a minimum 10° extension and/or flexion of the wrist or fingers, an ability to flex and extend the wrist joint five times continuously without losing active range of motion.
You may not qualify if:
- apraxia or hemianopsia.
- diabetic polyneuropathy.
- Aphasia , cognitive deficits.
- a previous disability in the upper limbs, tactile agnosia (stereognosis).
- LT hemiplegia, Post Botox injection, recurrent stroke, and Posterior parietal lesion.
