Effects of Different Pressure Garments on Upper Extremity Sensorimotor Functions and Quality of Life After Stroke
Effects of Pressure Garments of Varying Designs on Upper Extremity Sensorimotor Functions and Quality of Life After Stroke: A Multicenter, Double-Blind, Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
National University of Malaysia
165 participants
Oct 8, 2024
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The study aims to compare the effects of dorsal-double-layered 10% circumferential reduction (DD-10), single-layered 10% circumferential reduction (S-10), and single-layered no circumferential reduction (S-0) pressure garments on sensorimotor functions, including motor control, dexterity, muscle tone, pain, self-perceived upper extremity function, and quality of life among stroke patients during the 8 weeks of application (Time 1: Baseline, Time 2: Week 4, Time 3: Week 8).

Interventions
During Phase IA, i.e., the first four weeks between Time 1 (Baseline) and Time 2 (Week 4), when participants are hospitalized in the rehabilitation department of the hospital. participants will need to wear the DD-10 pressure garment for 3 hours in the morning, 3 hours in the afternoon, and 8 hours at night daily. Additionally, all participants will need to attend an occupational therapy session for 30 minutes, 5 days a week. During Phase IB, i.e., the second four weeks between Time 2 (Week 4), and Time 3 (Week 8), when participants were being discharged from the hospital, they need to continually wearing the pressure garment according to same wearing schedule; however, the participants will not need to attend the occupational therapy session.
