Group 3 showed significant improvement in upper limb function following intervention, reducing spasticity by ≥1 on the Modified Ashworth Scale.
Resulting improvements were measured using the Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremities and other standardized scales.
This randomized controlled trial protocol investigates the impact of dual-site peripheral theta burst stimulation on stroke recovery.
Positive outcomes may inform future research and rehabilitation strategies for managing post-stroke spasticity.

Implication

Protocol for randomized trial shows effects of non-invasive treatments for spasticity in stroke survivors, suggesting potential for improved function.
