Abstract:
Objective:To observe the therapeutic effect of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation com-bined with rehabilitation robot on hand dysfunction in stroke patients. Method:Totally 36 patients with stroke hand dysfunction treated in the Rehabilitation Department of Jinshan Hospital were randomly divided into the experimental group(n=18)and the control group(n=18).Both groups of patients received routine treatment.Both groups were treated with 1Hz repetitive transcranial magnet-ic stimulation on the unaffected side,and the experimental group was added by a hand function rehabilitation robot.Both groups were treated 5 times a week for 4 weeks.The assessment were evaluated before treatment,2 weeks and 4 weeks after treatment,including the latency of cortical motor evoked potential(MEP),central motor conduction time(CMCT),Fugl-Meyer assessment(FMA)score and motor intensity index(MI)score. Result:After 4 weeks of treatment,MEP,CMCT,FMA and MI of the two groups were significantly im-proved compared with those before treatment(P＜0.001).After 4 weeks of treatment,MEP,CMCT,FMA and MI in the experimental group were significantly improved compared with those in the control group(P＜0.05). Conclusion:The contralateral low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with rehabilita-tion robot can significantly improve hand dysfunction in stroke patients.
