Summary

The study is to evaluate the effect of 3D printing functional splints on hand function for patients with stroke.Twenty stroke patients with moderate motor deficits were recruited and randomized into experimental (3D printing splint) or control (functional splint) groups for 8 weeks of treatment.The performance was assessed by a blinded assessor for two times including motor, function, and feasibility.Collected data will be analyzed with nonparametric tests by SPSS version 20.0, and alpha level was set at .05.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

3D printing splint group

Wear 3D printing design splint for position for 60 minutes each time, plus 20 minutes of exercise which including:(1) Raise hands for 5 minutes, and bend and straighten the elbow for 5 minutes for proximal movement exercise;(2) Wear 3D printed design hand splint and change objects according to the ability of grasp, such as hold a cup, handle, eraser, pen, etc.

BEHAVIORAL

functional splint group
