Background: Stroke is a generic term in use to describe the sudden interruption of blood flow to the part of brain, resulting loss of brain function. A stroke may be also known as cerebrovascular accident. Cerebrovascular accident which defines as pathology in which brain disease occurs secondary to disorders of blood supply of brain. It is essential to know about the magnitude of impact of stroke globally. Aim:  To determine effectiveness of constraint induced movement therapy and comparing its efficacy to traditional rehabilitation in acute and sub-acute stroke survivors exhibiting upper limb hemiplegia Methodology: This was a randomized clinical trial study, conducted in Lahore in which eighteen stroke patients had participated.  Current study includes MAL and WMFT questionnaire in it and sample size was 18. Patients were treated 4 times a week and unaffected limb was constrained for two hours in therapy session and onwards to 10 hours to motivate the use of effected limb. Readings were taken weekly and patients were reassessed by using MAL and WMFT. CIMT treatment protocol consists of 3 or 4 month of daily intensive training of the affected extremity for 2 hours in association with restriction of the non-affected extremity for 10 hours a day. Group B: Traditional rehabilitation therapy used Sling (shoulder immobilizer) made of poly urethane material. Hair brush, cup, marbles, cards, blocks, tissue paper, cones, Swiss ball, dexterity board. Results:  Statistical analysis was set at p ≤ 0.05. huge and direct to vast impacts existed on WMFT (P=0.010) noteworthy and direct to extensive impacts existed When p-value is not as much as the foreordained importance level which is frequently 0.05 or 0.01, showing that the watched results would be profoundly impossible under the alternate theory. In this way, the alternate hypothesis was supported. Subsequently null hypothesis is rejected and alternate hypothesis is accepted.  Conclusion: This study concluded that the patients who were treated with CIMT showed remarkable change in upper extremity functions. While patients who were treated with traditional rehabilitation therapy they exhibited less change in their functional activities than Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy.
