Brief Summary   This research endeavors to investigate the impact of scapular and trunk stability exercises on the upper extremity functions of individuals who have experienced a stroke. The primary objectives include enhancing motor recovery, increasing range of motion, and improving overall functional independence and quality of life for stroke survivors. Through a meticulous selection process, a sample size of 68 participants is included in the study, with clear criteria for inclusion and exclusion. The experimental design involves two distinct groups: Group 1, designated as the exercise group, and Group 2, the control group. The exercise group undergoes targeted scapular and trunk stability exercises, while the control group does not receive these interventions. This comparative approach facilitates an in-depth analysis, assessing the specific impact of the exercises on upper extremity functions in the context of stroke recovery. The ultimate goal is to generate findings that can inform evidence-based rehabilitation protocols, guiding healthcare practitioners in the development of more effective and tailored interventions for individuals who have experienced a stroke. The study’s emphasis on rigorous participant selection ensures a focused and meaningful contribution to the broader field of stroke rehabilitation.
