Clinical Trial Summary

Effective treatment of spasticity after stroke is a very important and serious problem. Some of the therapeutic approach include physiotherapy and medication. In the recent years external corporeal shockwave therapy and dry needling are commonly used for management of spasticity and pain after stroke. the purpose of this study is the comparative study between effectiveness of external corporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) and dry needling (DN) on spasticity, pain, and upper limb function and sensation in individuals with hemiplegia. Methods: In this study, individuals with hemiplegia were randomized 1:1 to parallel ESWT-Group (n = 10) or DN group (CG) (n = 10). Upper Extremity Functions, Sensation, Spasticity and Pain were evaluated. All measurement indicators were be evaluate before treatment and immediately after one session treatment. Mixedmodel repeated measured ANOVAs were then employed to determine if a group*time interaction existed on the effects of the treatment on each outcome variable for each group as the between-subjects variable and time as the within-subjects variables.
