About this study

This study aims to find out the difference in brain activity when performing upper limb exercise tasks through virtual reality-based MOTOCOG equipment for chronic stroke patients. All participants will participate in tasks for upper limb exercise conducted for 26 minutes.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Fugl-Meyer Assessment Upper Extremity

    Time frame: Baseline

    Measurement of motor function of upper and lower extremities. The minimum and maximum values are 0 and 66, and higher scores mean a better outcome.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Grip and Tip pinch strength test

    Time frame: Baseline

    The test is to measure the maximum isometric strength of hand, forearm, and finger muscles.

  2. Box & Block Test

    Time frame: Baseline

    The test is used to measure the gross manual dexterity of a patient, or of a person using an upper limb prosthetic device.

  3. 9-hole pegboard test

    Time frame: Baseline

    The test is a standardized, quantitative assessment used to measure finger dexterity of a patient.

  4. Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function test

    Time frame: Baseline

    This test is a standardized and objective measure of fine and gross motor hand function using simulated activities of daily living (ADL).
