| Scapular Dyskinesis Test- The test will begin with participants standing with arms, sides elbow extended and shoulder in a neutral position. They were instructed to raise both the arms overhead to their maximum range within a 3-second count in a thumbs-up position followed by a controlled 3-second lowering. Lateral scapular slide test- Measurements are taken from the inferior angle of the scapula to the spinous process of the thoracic vertebra along with the same horizontal plane. In position 1, the shoulders are in neutral position with the arms relaxed at the sides in position 2, the humerus is medially rotated and abducted to 45 degrees with the hand placed around the waist. In position 3, the humorous is maximally medially rotated and abducted to 90 degrees. Test is considered positive if the bilateral difference in measurements is equal to or greater than 1.5cm. Strength Testing- This will be done using the push-pull dynamometer. Stroke indexTimepoint: Scapular Dyskinesis test- Will be assessed at the baseline i.e. Day 1 and after intervention week 6. Lateral Scapular slide test- Will be assessed at the baseline i.e. Day 1 and after intervention week 6. Strength testing- Will be assessed at the baseline i.e. Day 1 and after intervention week 6. Stroke index- Will be assessed at the baseline i.e. Day 1 and after intervention week 6. | — |
