Brief 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.
Detailed Description: Background: Spasticity is an important factor limiting independency and activity of daily living for post-stroke patients. Splinting has been proved to be successful treatment for spasticity.3D printing technology was used to construct personalized, complicated orthosis, and one piece to reduce assembly time. The evidence most are product development, but few of study investigate the effectiveness.

Aim: To evaluate the effect of 3D printing functional splints on hand function for patients with stroke.

Methods: 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 (Sixty minutes for position and twenty minutes for training a time, triple times a day). The performance was assessed by a blinded assessor for two times included Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Limb section(FMA-UE), Electromyography (EMG), Grip dynamometer, Passive Range of motion (PROM) at upper extremity, Muscle tone at upper extremity, and Disability of the arm, shoulder and hand questionnaire(DASH). The splint wearing performance and Satisfaction were recorded. Collected data will be analyzed with nonparametric tests by SPSS version 20.0, and alpha level was set at .05.
