AbstractObjective: 1) To examine the efficacy of segmentary relaxation (EMG Biofeedback + Stimulation) compared to conventional occupational Therapy in the Functional Recovery of Hemiplegics hand.2) To study in which stage of Brunnstrom , segmentary relaxation shows most significant results.Setting: The study was conducted in the Dept of Occupational Therapy, N.I.O.H, Kolkata. Design: Experimental group underwent 20 sessions (5 days a week) of Segmentary Relaxation along with Conventional Therapy whereas control group underwent only conventional therapy for the same no of sessions.Assessments: Upper limb disability was assessed with Action Research Arm Test.Brunnstrom Stage and Goniometric measurement of wrist extension was also recorded.Results: There was an improvement in the joint range of motion of wrist extension, 2% in control group and 40% in the experimental group. Within group results in the experimental group showed 13.6% improvement in stage 2 to 3 ,14.6% in stage 3to 4 and 40% in stage 4 to 5.The results for ARAT were not significant p=0.24.Chi suare test showed significant results for the treatment effect at p =.02.
