| Scientific title | Effects of Spring Assisted Dynamic Hand Orthosis Training on Functions and Movement Smoothness of the Hemiparetic Upper Extremity: A randomised controlled trial |
| Study acronym | SADHO |
| Study objectives | The purpose of this experiment was to evaluate the effectiveness of training using a spring assisted dynamic hand orthosis on smoothness of movement, clinical assessment score, and grip strength of the affected limb in hemiparetic patients. To determine resultant velocity and jerkiness score for movement smoothness, the Box and Block Test (BBT), Action Research Arm Test (ARAT), and Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) for functions of the hemiparetic upper extremity were conducted. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Yonsei University, College of Medicine approved on the 25th of March 2010 (ref: 2009-44) |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Hemiparesis due to Stroke |
| Intervention | Patients will undergo training activities while each wore a spring assisted dynamic hand orthosis. Training will be guided by a physiotherapist for 1 hour per day per week for 4 weeks. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure | 3 clinical assessments and the measurement of grip strength. Fugl-Meyer Assessment and grip strength and Action Research Arm Test and Box and Block Test. All outcomes were measured at baseline and after 4 weeks of training. |
| Secondary outcome measures | Spatiotemporal parameters were collected using a 3-D motion analysis system and workstation software pre- and post-test (VICON MX system, Oxford Metrics, U.K.). Data collection was conducted at the Motion Analysis Research Laboratory in the Yonsei University. All outcomes were measured at baseline and after 4 weeks of training. |
