The Effect of Upper Extremity Motor Function, Trunk Control and Motor Imagery Ability on Turkish Language Skills in Individuals With Stroke
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Hemiplegia, Aphasia, Stroke, Trunk, Upper Limbs, Motor Imagery
In brief
A large number of people have a stroke each year and it is a major cause of disability worldwide. Upper limb motor impairments, aphasia, body control problems and decreased motor imagery ability are common after stroke. Although there are studies showing that these impairments may be related to each other, there is no comprehensive study examining the relationship between Turkish language skills and these motor functions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between Turkish language skills and upper extremity motor function, trunk control and motor imagery ability in stroke patients.
