Brief summary
Cerebrovascular accident(CVA) or stroke is one of common condition affecting people in developed and underdeveloped countries. MRP is a therapy to regain particular motor function and neglecting accessory movements by engaging cognitive behavior. Mirror therapy enhance functional activities in patient with hemiplegic stroke. For betterment of result high quality methodological studies and larger sample size is required.
Detailed description
Cerebrovascular accident(CVA) or stroke is one of common condition affecting people in developed and underdeveloped countries. Mostly patient with stroke face many disabilities and the most important one is upper limb motor impairment. For the optimization of upper extremity and prevention of patient from permanent disability it is essential to promotes Neuro-rehabilitation interventions. Physiotherapy techniques need to be monotonous, thorough and task oriented for neuroplasticity to generate better recovery. There is notable enhancement in ADLS when the rehabilitation program starts within 16 hours to 6 months after stroke In improving upper extremity motor functions there are tremendous types of techniques used i.e. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation(PNF),Brunnstorm, Bobath therapy, Motor relearning program(MRP),Constraint induced movement therapy(CIMT) and Mirror therapy(MT).Out of which we are using two basic techniques i.e. motor relearning program(MRP) and mirror therapy(MT).Mirror therapy enhance functional activities in patient with hemiplegic stroke. For betterment of result high quality methodological studies and larger sample size is required. Mirror therapy enhance functional activities in patient with hemiplegic stroke. MRP is a therapy to regain particular motor function and neglecting accessory movements by engaging cognitive behavior .MRP is a therapy to regain particular motor function and neglecting accessory movements by engaging cognitive behavior.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| fugl meyer assessment scale (FMA) | upto 4 weeks | This test is recommended for checking functional return of patient having impairments with stroke.Test consists on the base of assessing patient with moving limb in low tone movements or synergistic pattern and then move actively back to normal function. Total scoring for upper limb is 18. |
