Upper-extremity (UE) dysfunction is common after stroke. Four out of five people with stroke initially present with hemiparesis of the affected UE.1 Of those with significant impairment at onset (~30%), over 80% will demonstrate persistent functional deficits at 6 months post-stroke.2 These findings strongly support the notion that more effective therapeutic interventions for the paretic UE are needed. This article examines the potential role of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) as a strategy to improve motor skills and function of the paretic UE of a patient undergoing stroke rehabilitation.
