Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   28 stroke survivors will be recruited for the study. Ethical clearance was obtained from the Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC), Kasturba hospital, Manipal, prior to onset of study. The subjects will be screened based on the inclusion criteria. Selected subjects will be explained about the study and a written informed consent will be obtained for their participation. Their demographic characteristics will be recorded followed by a detailed assessment. Trunk performance will be assessed using the Trunk Impairment Scale and trunk muscle activity will be recorded using surface EMG electrodes during performance of trunk training activities: pelvic bridging and sit-to-stand transition. A rest period of 10 minutes will be provided between each activity. Care will be taken with respect to privacy of female subjects and the safety of the subjects during the testing to which end the therapist will be by the side of the subject at all times. Familiarization of the activities will be done prior to the evaluation and the order of activity will be randomly chosen using lottery method for each subject. The data obtained will be statistically analyzed
