Can a piece of paper predict falls after a stroke?

NCT ID NCT07181005

Summary

This study aimed to see if a simple test, where a patient grips a piece of paper with their toes, is a reliable way to assess fall risk in people who have had a stroke. Researchers tested 35 stroke patients, comparing the paper grip test results with standard balance and strength measurements. The goal was to validate this quick, low-cost method as a potential screening tool for clinicians.
