Summary

This study investigates the impact of sensory electrical nerve stimulation (SENS) on hand function in chronic stroke patients. Thirty participants were randomly divided into two groups:

Study Group (A): Received SENS combined with task-specific training.

Control Group (B): Received only task-specific training.

Assessments conducted before and after the intervention included measurements of grip strength, pinch strength, wrist range of motion, and performance on the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT).

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

sensory electrical stimulation

peripheral sensory electrical stimulation on median, ulnar, and radial nerves of affected upper limb, simultaneously with Task Specific Training program which included four subtests of Action Research Arm Test scale.

OTHER

task specific training program

received task specific training program only. Patients were tested pre and post treatment by Grip dynamometer, Pinch dynamometer, Digital goniometer and Action Research Arm Test Scale (ARAT).
