Trial name or title | Treatment of stroke‐induced spastic hemiparesis with EMG‐triggered electrostimulation. |
Methods | |
Participants | 44 participants, 24 male. Mean age 59 (8.3) years. Mean time after stroke 6 (1 to 9) weeks. |
Interventions | Experimental 1: Category = 5. Electrostimulation triggered by participant's EMG activity. All participants also received control intervention. Experimental 2: Category = 7. Electrostimulation without any muscle activity by the participant. All participants also received the control intervention. Control: Physio and ergo therapy. |
Outcomes | (1) Pendulum test upper and lower extremities; (2) Ashworth scores upper and lower extremities; (3) Contraction capacity upper and lower extremities; (4) Barthel Index; (5) FIM score. |
Starting date | Paper reporting progress on the trial was published in 1997. |
Contact information | First author as given on 1997 paper. |
Notes | We made several attempts to contact the first author but have been unable to make contact to ascertain if the trial was completed and results published elsewhere. |
