Abstract:
ObjectiveTo discuss the relationships among spastic paralysis and motor function, balance function and other clinical variables after stroke.MethodsAssessed the clinical spastic index of hemiplegic lower limbs with CSI scale, motor function with Fugl-Meyer Assessment, and balance function with Berg Equilibrium Scale, respectively. And then analyzed the relationship between clinical spasm index with motor function, balance function of the hemiplegic lower limbs with Pearson correlation analysis. Finally, ascertained which was the most important factor affecting the clinical spasm index of spastic lower limbs with stepwise regression analysis.ResultsThere is negative correlation between clinical spasm index with motor function and balance function, respectively. Tendon reflex, muscular tension and clonus are the deciding factors to motor function(P<0.05) and balance function(P<0.05) of the hemiplegic lower limbs.ConclusionThe clinical spasm index of hemiplegic limbs can affect the recovery of motor function and balance function significantly. So, assessing and improving the clinical spasm index of paralytic lower limbs can optimize the rehabilitation program to stroke patients.
