It is estimated that worldwide, about 15 million people are affected by vascular accident (CVA) per year, and in Brazil, the stroke is a major cause of death and disability, generating too much economic and social impact by generating motor sequelae , sensory and cognitive arising from blockage or rupture of blood vessels. Among the motor sequelae is the hemiparesis, which affects about 80% of cases with consequent impairment of the quality of life of individuals. However, physical therapy has shown to facilitate return of the function of these individuals, while minimizing the sensorimotor deficits for promoting neuronal plasticity through the motor relearning. Among the features of physical therapy are the conventional physical therapy techniques, Therapy and Restriction of Movement Induction (TRIM) and the Mental Practice. In view of this, the objective of the study is to compare the application of conventional physiotherapy protocols and TRIM and / or mental practice on the morphometric features, functionality and quality of life of post-stroke hemiparetic subjects in the chronic phase. 60 volunteers will be selected, of both sexes, aged between 45 and 80 years with a clinical diagnosis of stroke, with hemiparesis in the chronic phase were divided into four groups (N = 15): control group (CG), TRIM Group (GT), Mental Practice group (GPM) and group TRIM + Mental Practice (GTPM) to perform specific exercises for each group for three times a week, totaling 24 sessions. Volunteers will be evaluated in four times through the Fugl-Meyer Assessment scale (FMA) adapted and Motor Ability Test of the Upper Limb (THMMS) and to assess the Quality of Life will be used Quality Scale Specific Life Vascular Accident brainstem (EQVE-AVE) and oxidative stress analysis by collecting blood and electromyography for muscular activity. After the research data will be tabulated on an Excel spreadsheet to perform intergroup and intragroup comparisons between the four evaluation times, which will be used for data analysis the BioEstat® 5.2 program, the choice of tests for analysis dependent on the statistical distribution types found and the homogeneity of their variances.
