Condition: Stroke (CVA) or Transient Ischemic Attack · Sponsor: Lahore University of Biological and Applied Sciences
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two rehabilitation techniques-Sensory Augmentation (using mirror therapy) and Neuromodulation (using transcranial direct current stimulation, tDCS)-in improving motor recovery among stroke survivors. Stroke often results in long-term impairments, particularly in upper limb motor function, which is critical for daily activities. Although current rehabilitation strategies help, more effective solutions are needed to enhance recovery. Participants, aged 45-65 with chronic stroke and upper extremity impairments, will be randomized into three groups: Group 1 will receive a combination of sensory augmentation (mirror therapy) and neuromodulation (tDCS) with routine physical therapy; Group 2 will receive sensory augmentation (mirror therapy) with routine physical therapy; and Group 3 will receive neuromodulation (tDCS) with routine physical therapy. The interventions will take place four times a week for 8 weeks, and participants will undergo motor function assessments, including the Fugl-Meyer Assessment and Jebsen-Taylor Test, before and after the intervention. The study will compare the effects of each intervention on motor recovery, specifically focusing on upper limb function and motor control. The findings could lead to improved rehabilitation protocols, offering stroke survivors better therapeutic options and enhancing their quality of life.
