Abstract:
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of healthy side tilt training on balance function in patients with Pusher syndrome (PS) after stroke. MethodsFrom February, 2021 to November, 2023, 40 patients with PS after stroke in People's Hospital of Bayingolin Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture were selected. They were divided into control group (n = 20) and experimental group (n = 20) in accordance with the order of the patients' admission. The control group received comprehensive training for paralyzed limbs combined with sitting balance training, and the experimental group received comprehensive training for paralyzed limbs combined with healthy side tilt training, for three weeks. They were assessed with Burke Lateropulsion Scale (BLS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Balance (FMA-B) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment, BLS score significantly decreased in both groups (t > 12.603, P < 0.001), and was lower in the experimental group than in the control group (t = -2.559, P < 0.05). The scores of FMA-B and MBI were significantly increased in both groups (|Z| > 3.941, |t| > 12.082, P < 0.001), and FMA-B score was higher in experimental group than in the control group (Z = -2.538, P < 0.05). ConclusionComprehensive training for paralyzed limbs combined with healthy side tilt training can effectively improve the balance function and postural control of patients with PS after stroke, and improve the activities of daily living.
