Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Reduction of shoulder subluxation and pain after physical therapy intervention with functional electrical stimulation in hemiplegic patients after chronic stroke.;There was a significant reduction in the degree of subluxation (p=0.05) and pain (p=0.001) in hemiparetic patients after stroke with subluxed shoulder.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Verification of spasticity, range of motion and functional evaluation of the upper limb.;There was no change in spasticity, range of motion and function of the upper limb after intervention.
