The Effects of Early and Late Injection of Botulinum Toxin Type A on Upper Limb Function in Patients With Stroke

Stroke Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effects of Early and Late Injection of Botulinum Toxin Type A on Upper Limb Function in Patients With Stroke

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to determine whether early use of OnabotulinumtoxinA is more effective to improve functional outcomes of upper limb in patients with stroke.

Clinical Trial Description

Many patients surviving stroke have significant impairment of function in the affected upper limb due to the development of spasticity. Botulinum toxin type A injection is a powerful treatment option for control of spasticity. In this study, the patients will be randomly assigned into three groups: early OnabotulinumtoxinA group will receive OnabotulinumtoxinA injection when their spasticity develop, late OnabotulinumtoxinA group will have injection at 6 months after emergence of spasticity, the third group will not have OnabotulinumtoxinA intervention. The aim of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the effects of early and late injection of botulinum toxin type A on upper limb function in patients with stroke. ;
