Virtual Reality Versus Constraint-induced Movement on Hemiparesis in Cerebrovascular Event
Sponsor: Coordinación de Investigación en Salud, Mexico
Summary
The objective of this clinical trial is to measure the effect of Rehabilitation with Virtual Reality or Modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy on hemiparesis in patients with Cerebral Vascular Event. The question to be answered is: What is the effect of different therapeutic modalities supported by Virtual Reality or Modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy compared with usual Physical and Occupational Therapy on motor recovery of paretic limbs in patients with Cerebrovascular Event? The patients will carry out activities of: * Virtual reality or * Movement Restriction-Induction Therapy. The investigators will compare the changes in the functionality of the paretic hemibody with a group undergoing regular physical and occupational therapy, as well as language and treatment-related satisfaction.

Interventions
Virtual reality
The activities will be carried out with the Virtual Reality team, for 1 hour, twice a week, for 12 sessions (6 weeks). It will be indicated to repeat the activities at home, on similar equipment and with the same or similar software, at least 1 hour a day, at least 3 days a week.
Modified constraint-induced movement therapy
Physical and occupational therapy activities will be carried out with the paretic upper limb, while the patient has the healthy upper limb "attached to the chest", for 1 hour, twice a week, for 12 sessions (6 weeks). It will be indicated to repeat the activities at home, 1 hour a day, at least 3 days a week. In addition, the participant will perform activities of daily living with the "free" paretic arm and the "fixed" healthy arm, for 5 hours a day.
Usual Physical and Occupational Therapy
The physical and occupational therapy activities that are usually practiced in the Medical Unit will be carried out for 1 hour, twice a week, for 12 sessions (6 weeks). It will be indicated to repeat the activities at home, for 1 hour a day, at least 3 days a week.
