Effect of Constrained Induced Movement Therapy on Functional Arm Reach Distance on Adult Hemiplegic Patients: A Pilot Study

Background: Stroke is an acute onset of neurological dysfunction due to abnormal cerebral vascular circulationwith resulting signs and symptoms that corresponds focal area brain. The most common characteristics ofMCA stroke are contra lateral spastic hemiparesis, motor sensory disturbance face, weakness upperextremity lower extremity with upper limb more affected than limb. Constraint induced movementtherapy (CIMT) involves ipsilesional restraint training paretic arm overcome this learned disabilityby restraining the unaffected extremity.Aims objectives study: To observe analysis effect Constrained Induced Movement Therapyon hand function chronic patients.Data Analysis & Results: Shows pre post intervention values variable functional reach inchronic patients study. In mean reachwere 19.0 cm 23.0 respectively. Results significance p value were p≤0.05 explained after constrainedinduced movement therapy subjects was improved statistically.Conclusion: This study concluded Therapy shall have statisticallysignificant improvement on distance in adult hemiplegic patients.
