Clinical Trial Summary

Reproducibility assessment of a quantitative measure of the amount of trunk compensation by kinematic analysis in a grasping task in stroke patients.This "maladaptive trunk compensation" is suspected to be underlined by "arm non-use" in some patients, since this abnormal movement impairs the ability of patients to correctly flex their shoulder and extend their elbow during grasping.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Kinematic measurement of trunk displacement by the maladaptive index trunk compensation	The Maladaptive Index Trunk Compensation (MTC) is the difference between the compensation index (CI) in the free trunk condition and to the fixed core condition. The compensation index is the core of the movement of the report on the movement of the hand.	1 day	No
