Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

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

Brief Summary   Subjects diagnosed with stroke referred to physiotherapy will be approached and informed consent will be collected from them. Upon the consent they will be screened for inclusion and exclusion criteria for eligibility. The eligible subjects will be randomized into two groups i.e. control group and experimental group through block randomization method. after randomization demographic data will be collected and baseline parameters will be assessed using both the primary and secondary outcome measures. Both the groups will get two weeks of hospital based intervention; post which they will get 4 weeks of home exercises.

Control group will receive conventional impairment based rehabilitation for upper limb, lower limb and trunk in hospital based rehabilitation and post discharge they will be asked to continue the same as home program.
Experimental Group will receive conventional impairment based rehabilitation for upper and lower limb; and task oriented training for trunk in hospital based rehabilitation and as same will be continued as home program for 4 weeks.
