BACKGROUND In stroke patients, upper limb paresis affects many activities of daily life. Reducing disability is therefore a major aim of rehabilitation programmes for hemiparetic patients. Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is a current approach to stroke rehabilitation that implies the forced use and the massed practice of the affected arm by restraining the unaffected arm. OBJECTIVE...
BACKGROUND Limited data are available about the effectiveness of early rehabilitation after stroke. OBJECTIVE This is the 1st randomized controlled trial of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in subacute stroke to investigate neurophysiologic mechanisms and long-term outcome. METHODS Within 2 weeks after stroke, 23 patients with upper extremity (UE) weakness were randomized to 2 wee...

Following stroke, the disturbed motor control results in subsequent movement disorders. Recovery means gradual returning of the specific function, after a deficit caused by a central nervous system damage (Held, 2000). The recovery of upper extremity movement following a stroke is generally poor. Three months after stroke its function remains totally or partially impaired in as much as 80 % of ...
BACKGROUND Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is a rehabilitation approach for arm paresis consisting of an intensive schedule of treatment (6 h/d). The high demand of resources for CIMT is a critical issue for its implementation in the Italian health system. OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of a reduced-intensity modified CIMT (mCIMT) program that included splinting the unaffected ar...
OBJECTIVE This study compared the effects of a distributed form of constraint-induced therapy with control intervention in motor recovery and brain reorganization after stroke. DESIGN A two-group randomized controlled trial with pretreatment and posttreatment measures was conducted. Thirteen patients with stroke were randomly assigned to the distributed form of constraint-induced therapy (n =...
A lower extremity constraint-induced (CI) movement therapy protocol developed at the University of Alabama was used to treat three stroke patients suffering from hemiplegia. Upon intervention, both walking speed and stability improved, reliance on assistance an accompanying individual or support device decreased, improvements standing position during daily activities activity were seen.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although the motor deficit after stroke is clearly due to the structural brain damage that has been sustained, this relationship is attenuated from the acute to chronic phases. We investigated the possibility that motor impairment and response to constraint-induced movement therapy in patients with chronic stroke may relate more strongly to the structural integrity of bra...
