Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Onset of shoulder hand syndrome [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    The incidence rate of shoulder hand syndrome

  2. Change from Baseline in the modified Barthel index (MBI) and MBI efficiency [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    MBI efficiency means MBI gain divided by period of administration

  3. Change from Baseline in the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) (upper limb) and FMA efficiency [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    FMA efficiency means FMA gain divided by period of administration


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Pain score by numeric rating scale [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
  2. Swelling asymmetry between hands [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
  3. Discolouration of the skin of the hand [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
  4. Difference in skin temperature between hands [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
  5. Decreased range of motion [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
  6. Radiographic finding of bone [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
  7. Bone metabolic marker [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
