Constraint-Induced Movement therapy or CI therapy is a rehabilitation method, based on behavioral neuroscience studies of deafferented monkeys, that has been shown in controlled studies to produce large improvements in real-world upper-extremity use in individuals with chronic stroke. Up till now, survivors of stroke with plegic hands have been excluded from CI therapy protocols, whether on a research or clinical basis. Such individuals are estimated to make up at least 35% of the population with chronic stroke with residual motor deficit. Furthermore, there are no other interventions for such individuals that have controlled evidence of efficacy for increasing real-world function. Thus, these stroke survivors represent a large number of healthcare consumers with limited treatment options.
