Fugl Meyer Assessment scale is an index to assess the sensory and motor impairment in individuals who have had stroke. [1] This scale was created for the standardized clinical assessment of post-stroke recovery. The development of Fugl-Meyer assessment was influenced by the Brunnstorm approach which proposed the stages of sequential motor recovery after stroke.
