Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
UPPER LIMB MOTOR FUNCTION
MOTOR FUNCTION WILL BE ASSESSED USING FUGL MEYER ASSESSMENT OF UPPER LIMB AS THE MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE .
10 weeks
Study Arms (2)
INTERVENTION GROUP A LOW INTENSITY TASK ORIENTED MIRROR THERAPY
EXPERIMENTALSubjects will recieve Low Intensity Task Oriented Mirror Therapy: Mirror will be placed on table perpendicular to patient in such a way that the reflection of unaffected arm to be seen. The subject will be instructed to perform movement with unaffected arm. Task oriented activities: grasping objects, handling water cups, folding towels, spoon feeding, stacking wooden blocks.
INTERVENTION GROUP B HIGH INTENSITY TASK ORIENTED MIRROR THERAP
EXPERIMENTALSubjects will receive High Intensity Task Oriented Mirror Therapy : Mirror will be placed on table perpendicular to patient in such a way that the reflection of unaffected arm to be seen. The subjects will be instructed to perform movement with unaffected arm. Task Oriented Activities: grasping objects, handling water cups, folding towels, spoon feeding, stacking wooden blocks.
Interventions
Group A Low Intensity Task Oriented Mirror Therapy will be administered for 2 and half hour per week for 30 min a day, 10 rep five times a week for 8 weeks. Task-oriented Activities for Group A: Using Sponge Balls Reaching and Grasping Objects. Handling Water Cups(pouring water ) Wiping with Rags (cleaning a table ). Using a Spray Bottle Writing and Drawing Folding Towels Turning Pages Brushing Hair keyboard typing Grabbing and releasing a cup. Spoon Feeding Practice Drinking from a Cup Card flip activity Stacking Wooden Blocks Total number of sessions 40 , 5 days a week for 30 min with 10 reps per day for 8 consecutive weeks.
Group B High Intensity Task Oriented Mirror Therapy will be administered for 5 hours per week for 60 min a day, 20 rep five times a week for 8 weeeks. The mode of mirror therapy will be unilateral as subjects will perform movement only on unaffected arm. Task-oriented Activities for Group B: Using Sponge Balls Reaching and Grasping Objects. Handling Water Cups(pouring water ) Wiping with Rags (cleaning a table ). Using a Spray Bottle Writing and Drawing Folding Towels Turning Pages Brushing Hair keyboard typing Grabbing and releasing a cup. Spoon Feeding Practice Drinking from a Cup Card flip activity Stacking Wooden Blocks Total number of sessions 40 , 5 days a week for 60 min with 20 reps per day for 8 consecutive weeks
