Conditions

Patients diagnosed by a doctor as a first time of cerebral thrombosis or hemorrhagic stroke. Stroke Task&#45

Interventions

Personalized strength training added to TOT. The rehabilitation protocol consisted of six task oriented movements chosen to meet the following criteria: strength&#45
dependent activities of the most affected arm bimanual activities&#44
and dexterity of the most affected hand&#44
activity&#45
daily&#45
living goal&#44
context specific environment using real&#45
life object manipulation&#44
and exercised in multiple movement planes. Rehabilitation exercises simulated the following activities of daily living: brushing hair&#44
feeding&#44
and putting a pot above head. All activities were performed with increasing difficulty levels (progression in ROM according to the patient capacity)&#44
followed with feedback of the exercise performance&#44
and reinforced by verbal instructions. The participants received home&#45
based and performed all tasks with load resistance (60% of the maximum baseline force) put on the arm as a sand bag. individualized training for 60 minutes&#44
5 times/week for a period of 4 weeks.,TOT alone. The rehabilitation protocol is the same as the anoter group but the participants performed all task without load resistance. The participants received
individualized training for 60 minutes&#44
5 times/week for a period of 4 weeks.
