Objective: The current study was aimed to assess the role of Modified constraint induced movement therapy
(mCIMT) on hand function of hemiplegic patients.
Study Design: An experimental randomized control trial.
Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted in Rural Health Care Hospital and Almeraj clinic,
st th Nankana sahib from 1 may 2019 to 29 September 2019.
Material and Methods: Total 30 patients were recruited through non probability convenient sampling.
Experimental group (15 subjects) received mCIMT and conventional therapy, while control group received only
conventional treatment for 2 weeks. Fugl Meyer assessment scale and Motor assessment scale were used for
assessment of treatment and control groups. Paired sample T-test was used for the comparison of before and
after results of treatment and control groups. Mann-Whitney U test was used further to compare treatment
and control groups independently.
Results: In upper arm function, the mean rank of control group and treatment groups were 9.37 and 21.63. The
mean ranks of hand movements in control and treatment groups were 8.97 and 22.03 respectively. Advanced
hand activities had mean rank of 10.07 and 20.93 in control and treatment groups respectively. Motor function
had mean ranks of 9.07 and 21.93 in control and treatment groups respectively. Here the p value of MannWhitney U test is 0.00 which is less than 0.05, this shows that the test is highly significant.
Conclusion: It is concluded that modified constraint induced movement therapy has presented improved
upper arm function, hand movements, advanced hand activities and motor function.
