Brief Summary:
This study is to investigate the effects of exergame on shoulder pain and motor function of upper extremity in individuals with stroke.
Detailed Description:
Background and Purpose: Stroke is a major cerebrovascular disorder causing various symptoms in the world. A substantial portion of those surviving from stroke typically experience neurological sequelae and stroke-related complications. Post stroke shoulder pain is a sensory disturbance is one of a common complication in patients with chronic stroke and may adversely affect patients' quality of life. Nowadays, exergame has been explored as an adjunct therapy for the management of pain for a number of conditions. This study is to investigate the effects of exergame on shoulder pain and motor function of upper extremity in individuals with stroke. Method: This is a randomized controlled trail. Sixty subjects with poststroke shoulder pain will be recruited and randomized into either the exergame (experimental) group or conventional (control) group. The intervention is one hour per day, four or five days per week for three weeks. The primary outcomes are Visual Analogue Scale, and Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form. The secondary outcomes are Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Limb Extremity, Wolf motor function test and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index.
