Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: We included individuals who had independent gait; Ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke in any territory evidenced by computed tomography (CT); Age above 30 and below 65 years; Have hemiplegia or hemiparesis resulting from single and unilateral stroke.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Cognitive impairment; Neurological deficit in addition to hemiparesis from stroke; Osteoarticular complications (fractures, deformities or ankylosis structured; Time of injury in excess of twelve months.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected to find negative correlation between the index of performance (low functional performance the closer to 0 and high performance functional as closer to 100) and level of disability of individuals (0-no symptoms, 1-symptoms without disability, 2-mild disability, 3-moderate disability, 4-moderate to severe disability, 5-severe disability and 6-death)and a positive correlation between the index of performance (low functional performance the closer to 0 and the more high-performance functional near 100) and the analysis of symmetry and weight transfer procotolo evaluated by analysis of symmetry and weight transfer (8-symmetry and lack of weight transfer, 10 to 13- minimum capacity, 14 and 18- moderate capacity; 19 to 24- capacity partially good, 25 to 26 -well capacity, 27 - capacity full of symmetry and weight transfer). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected to find negative correlation between the degree of disability assessed by the Rankin disability scale modified (0-no symptoms, 1-symptoms without disability, 2-mild disability, 3-moderate disability, 4-moderate to severe disability, 5-severe disability and 6-death) and the degree of spasticity measured by the Tardieu scale (measured in degrees by goniometry of the difference between slow and fast stretch of the biceps and retofemoral). Individuals who present lower angle of spasticity should have better functional performance measured by the Barthel scale. | — |
