AB  - The aim of this paper was to compile an easy testing battery, sensitive enough to register changes in the motor task performance of the paretic hand and disabled upper limb of patients who have had a brain stroke and are in the chronic stage. We selected tests commonly used in rehabilitation to scan the characteristics and dynamics of test value changes after 10 kinesiotherapy lessons. Most of our outcome had the same trend of slight improvement, but did not reach statistical signifi cance because of the size of the group. Only our pilot outcome is presented in this paper. We are going to continue this study.
