Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study was planned to determine the effect of vibration applied to forearm extensor muscles on hand functions and muscle activation in stroke patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients will be included in our study, who will be hospitalized in Kirikkale University Faculty of Medicine Physical Therapy Hospital and will receive stroke rehabilitation. The number of patients will be determined to be approximately 24 according to the power analysis. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria and excluding the exclusion criteria will be randomized according to the order of arrival and divided into 2 groups as the training group and the control group. Patients will be randomized using block randomization. Routine conventional physical therapy will be applied to the patients in the vibration group in 4 weeks and 45 minutes sessions. In addition, 30 Hz, 3 days a week, immediately after the sessions, to the forearm extensor group muscles with ''Conformité Européene'' certified vibration device. frequency vibration will be applied. A vibration session will be as follows; 6 sets of vibrations will be applied, including 1 set of 1 minute vibration and 2 minutes of rest. Routine conventional physical therapy will be applied to the control group in 4 weeks and 45 minute sessions.

Vibration Group

Routine conventional physical therapy will be applied to patients in the vibration group in 4 weeks and 45 minutes sessions. In addition, right after the sessions, 3 days a week, 30 Hz. frequency vibration will be applied. A vibration session will be as follows; 6 sets of vibrations will be applied, including 1 set of 1 minute vibration and 2 minutes of rest.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Routine conventional physical therapy plus Vibration session

Intervention Type OTHER

Routine conventional physical therapy will be applied to patients in the vibration group in 4 weeks and 45 minutes sessions. In addition, right after the sessions, 3 days a week, 30 Hz. frequency vibration will be applied. A vibration session will be as follows; 6 sets of vibrations will be applied, including 1 set of 1 minute vibration and 2 minutes of rest.
