Interventions

Medical Device : The SMART pegboard was developed for patients with impaired upper extremity function especially the distal part

wrist and finger. Based on the learned non-use theory, patients repeatedly exercise their paraplegic upper extremities using reaching pattern. It consists of a 557 mm x 353mm x 32mm main board with th

basic, shape and pinch and is easily replaced from the main board. Each plate consists of appropriate pegs and is as follows

(1) Basic pegs are 63cylinder shape pegs with red, yellow, and blue color. (2) Shape pegs have three different shapes

a triangle, a square, or a circle each with four different color

red, yellow, green and blue. (3) Pinch pegs are of the smallest, 35 magnets without color. The SMART pegboard uses a 1.5A USB power supply and can easily select training programs and adjust the diffic

level and each plate is easily replaced from the main board. All participants received 20 sets of sessions, 5 days per week, over 4 weeks. In one session, participants completed 30 minutes of interven
