Stroke is a rapidly developing clinical signs of focal (or global) disturbance of cerebral function, lasting more than 24 hours or leading to death, with no apparent cause other than a vascular origin. Among various rehabilitation strategies, Task-oriented training of low to moderate intensity and Hand-Arm bimanual intensive therapy have shown their promising results in stroke rehabilitation.
