An observational study in Stroke, sponsored by Kutahya Health Sciences University. Completed at 1 site in Turkey. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-01-13.
Sponsored by Kutahya Health Sciences University · Observational
The aim of our study is investigated validity and reliabilty of Modified Box and Block Test and Targeted Box and Block Test in patients with stroke.
Fifty patients with stroke will included in the study. Box and Block Test, Modified Box and Block Test, Targeted Box and Block Test, 9 Hole Peg Test, Fugl-Meyer Assessment of the upper extremity will used to assess upper extremity. To evaluate validity between Modified and Targeted Box and Block Tests and Box and Block Test, 9 Hole Peg Test, Fugl-Meyer Assessment will used to correlation analysis tests. The investigator will evaluate after one week to test-retest reliability to patients. Other pyhsiotherapist will evaluate to patients inter-rater reliability.
7,286 studies on the registry are indexed under Stroke; 2,007 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 50 is below the median of 160 across 1,692 observational studies indexed under Stroke.

Patients with stroke
Exclusion Criteria:
Modified Box and Block Test
The Modified Box and Block (mBBT) test is an upper extremity performance test.Unlike BBT, in mBBT, instead of randomly picking the cubes, 16 cubes are arranged in a certain order. The cubes are asked to take the other cubes in that row, starting from the innermost left cube, first to the right, and then to the next upper row. It is recorded how many seconds passed through 16 cubes placed at a certain level.
Time frame: 10 minute
Targeted Box and Block Test
In tBBT, as in mBBT, the time of passing 16 cubes over the obstacle to the other side is recorded. However, the difference from mKBT is that 16 cubes are placed at a certain level, but the patients are asked to place the cubes on the other side in 4 cm squares where the cube will be placed. These squares correspond to the left symmetrical position of the cube on the right. In this way, patients have to place the cube they grasp only at the desired point.
Time frame: 10 minute
9 Hole Peg Test
9HPT is a dexterity test.The patient is asked to place the 9 wooden blocks into the 9 holes in the maximum amount of time.Then he is asked to take it out and put it back in its place. The total time is recorded.
Time frame: 10 minute
Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity
The Fugl-Meyer Assessment is a disease-specific impairment index designed to assess motor function, balance, sensation qualities and joint function in hemiplegic post-stroke patients.The scale consists of four categories (Shoulder/Elbow/Forearm, Wrist, Hand/Finger, and Coordination) and evaluates 23 different movements in 33 sections.The maximum score is 66 points
Time frame: 15 minutes
Box and Block Test
Box and Block (mBBT) test is an upper extremity performance test. The patient is instructed to move as many blocks as possible, one at a time, from one compartment to the other for a period of 60 seconds. The number of cubes passed to the other side in 60 seconds is recorded.
Time frame: 5 minute
