Brief Summary

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

In stroke patients, the shoulder-upper extremity complex is affected and reduces independence and quality in activities of daily living. Investigating the relationship between the functions of the upper extremity muscles and viscoelastic properties is important in understanding the rehabilitation of individuals with stroke.

Detailed Description

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

Upper extremity functions of individuals will be measured and correlated with viscoelastic properties of upper extremity muscles. The box and block test will be used for the function test. The viscoelastic properties of the muscles will be measured with the myotonPRO device. Deltoideus, Triceps, Biceps, Brachioradialis and Extansor digitorum longus were evaluated with myotonPRO. The tonus, stiffness and elasticity of muscles were recorded. Assessments will applied bilaterally and average recorded.
