Summary

The purpose of this study is to see whether treating subjects for wrist rehabilitation following stroke with Botox® and robotic therapy is more effective than treatment with robotic therapy alone and no Botox®.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Botox®

the treatment group will receive a one time injection of Botox® at the wrist flexors and pronators of the affected arm. Each subject will receive a standard dose of 150 units total, 50u each to the flexor carpi radialis and flexor carpi ulnaris, and 25u each for the pronator teres and pronator quadratus muscle groups.

OTHER

saline solution

the control group will receive a one time injection of salt water in the flexor carpi radialis and flexor carpi ulnaris, and the pronator teres and pronator quadratus muscle groups.
