About this study
The effects of mental practice combined with proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on muscle strength of upper limb were measured in 60 healthy students Subjects were randomly assigned to either proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) group or mental practice (MP) group. PNF group: 30 individuals, these subjects received only PNF training. MP: 30 individuals, these subjects received mental practice.
Read the detailed description
The effects of mental practice on muscle strength of upper limb were measured in 60 healthy female students with right dominant hand,. Their age ranged from17 to 23 years old. Subjects were randomly assigned to either proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) group or mental practice (MP) group. PNF group: 30 individuals, these subjects received only PNF training. MP: 30 individuals, these subjects received MP. training program has been administered for every group for 12 sessions over 4 weeks with 3 x 45 min training sessions per week. Pre-post test design was used. EMG device was used to measure the electrical activity of muscles. Measurements conducted at pre-intervention, during intervention and post-intervention testing with 20 days.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing mental practice and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation in people with Motor Activity, run by Wafaa Mahmoud Amin at 1 site in Saudi Arabia.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Saudi Arabia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Strength Evaluation of coracobrachialis Muscle (time frame: 2 minutes.). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 May 2019.
