What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Left/ Right affected armDiagnostic test
Therapeutic exercises: eccentric and concentric exercises and wrist isometrics 10 repetitions of 3 sets with 10 seconds interval
Grip strengthOther
assessed by using modified sphygmomanometer in which it first inflated to 100 mmHg with closed valve. The pressure was reduced to 20mmHg and the resisted wrist extension performed at baseline and at the 4th week.
