Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of sensory reeducation on the motor function and activities of daily living (ADL) in stroke patients with proprioceptive disturbance. Methods Sixty patients with proprioceptive disturbance after stroke were randomly divided into the treatment group and observation group, and 30 stroke patients with no proprioception disturbance were recruited as the controls. Three groups were treated with routine rehabilitation interventions, but the treatment group were given sensory reeducation in addition to the regular treatment. Fugl-Meyer motor assessment scale (FMA) and sensory assessment scale, and with Barthel index (MBI) for activities of daily living (ADL) were used to evaluate the patients before and after treatment. Results FMA and MBI scores of patients in three groups were increased significantly (P<0.01) after treatment. The scores of patients in observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group and treatment group (P<0.01). Those of the treatment group and the control group were with no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion The proprioception disturbance significantly affects the rehabilitation process, and sensory reeducation can improve the sensory function, motor function and activities of daily living (ADL).
