Overview
This study aimed to examine the effects of hemiplegic shoulder pain on upper extremity motor assessment, trunk control, fear of falling, mobility, and functional indepedence patients with stroke.
Description
The hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) in stroke patients is one of the most common complication in acute and subacute stage. Our study consisted of two groups: with and without hemiplegic shoulder pain. The investigators will investigate whether there are differences between the two groups in terms of upper extremity motor assessment, trunk control, fear of falling, mobility, and functional indepedence. Additionally, the investigators will investigate whether there is a correlation between USPRS and other scales (radiologic shoulder assessments and functional outcome measures) in patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain.
