How it all began…….. 2014 Research Priority Grant, United Kingdom Occupational Therapy Research Foundation “A pilot randomized controlled trial of mirror box therapy in upper limb rehabilitation with sub-acute stroke patients” assess the feasibility of delivering MBT as a component of occupational therapy treatment with this population Evaluate the use and sensitivity of the outcome measures selected

Workshop Aims Learn about Mirror Box Therapy (MBT) and the graded Wolf Motor Function Test (gWMFT) outcome measure Use the mirror box and practice the 8-stage upper limb protocol adopted within the research study Conduct and assessment with the graded Wolf Motor Function Test Discuss the clinical use of MBT and measurement issues using the gWMFT

Workshop Content Monday 12th June, 3:50pm – 5:25pm 3:50 – 4pm: Introduction to the team, the study objectives and orientation to MBT & gWMFT 4 – 4:30pm: MBT demonstration by clinical lead and audience practice session in pairs 5 minutes to clear away MBT & set-up gWMFT 4:35 – 5:15pm: gWMFT demonstration by clinical lead and audience practice session in groups 5:15- 5:25pm: Q&A session/discussion with the team & close of session.

Mirror Box Therapy Overview Originally used in the treatment of phantom limb pain following amputation (Ramachandran & Rogers-Ramachandran, 1996) Used in first stroke application by Altschuler et al (1999), subsequently many others (Yavuzer et al 2008; Dohle et al 2009; Invernizzi et al 2013; Wu et al 2013; Lin et al 2014; Cristina et al 2015; Colomer at al, 2016; Gurbuz et al 2016) Based upon mirror visual feedback: a mirror is placed in the patients’s midsagittal plane, reflecting movements of the non-affected side as if it were the affected side. Can be used upper or lower limb No clear consensus exists on the mechanism of how mirror therapy works; neural recovery in the brain can be stimulated using mirrored movements of the non-affected limb (Stevens & Stoykov, 2003), it is thought that visual feedback helps recruit dormant motor pathways that replace the damaged pathways and encourage the return of movement (Panadian et al, 2014)

Evidence Systematic Reviews Thieme et al 2012 Review Mirror therapy for improving motor function after stroke, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 10.1002/14651858.CD008449.pub2 Objective: to summarise effectiveness of mirror therapy for improving motor function, activities of daily living, pain and visuospatial neglect Reviewed the evidence of RCTs up to June 2011 Included 14 studies with a total of 567 participants Found evidence to indicate effectiveness of mirror therapy for improving upper extremity motor function, ADL & Pain; did not find evidence to support visuospatial neglect Zeng et al. 2018 Mirror therapy for motor function of the upper extremity in patients with stroke: a meta-analysis, Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 50: 8-15 Objective: to evaluate the mean treatment effect of mirror therapy on motor function of the upper extremity in patients with stroke Reviewed the evidence of RCTs from January 2007 – June 2017 Included 11 studies with a total of 347 participants Found a moderate effect of mirror therapy on motor function of the upper extremity

Graded Wolf Motor Function Test Overview Assessment of motor ability of upper limb using functional tasks Two components: functional ability scale (FAS) and movement time Two levels: A and B (the graded version has two levels of each task which can be chosen depending on the participants’ general functioning level). The gWMFT is a 13-item standardised measure which determines the motor ability of participants by recording functional movement time (0- 120 seconds per item) and quality of movement (0-7 Likert scale per item with 0= no movement, to 7 = normal movement). The graded version was developed from the original WMFT which has shown to have good reliability (Bonifer et al, 2005; Morris et al, 2001). This outcome measure has also been used by other investigators in previous studies with a stroke cohort (Uswatte et al. 2005; Colomer et al 2016). Scoring is by video-recording following assessent

Discussion Points Mirror Box Therapy Advantages Disadvantages Portable, lightweight, easy to use Design Cost less than £30 Clinical judgement Take home to continue rehabilitation Rings/ID bands and upper limb tattoos Patient – self-directed therapy and caregiver support Mirror Box Group Motivational

Discussion Points: gWMFT Advantages Disadvantages Standardised Limited use with patient with little upper limb function Scored/rescored including use of video ?Stop assessment if patient having difficulty (120 seconds) Can demonstrate improvement – use of video Time consuming set-up Goes through full range of upper limb functions Time consuming to gather up assessment components for use Shoulder to fine motor skills Difficult to conduct in patients home due to practicalities of set-up Requires plenty of test practice prior to administration Use of video – data protection etc
