Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of low frequency stimulation on motor function of stroke patients.Methods50 stroke patients were randomly divided into control group and treatment group with 25 cases in each group. Patients of control group received neuromedical and Bobath technical treatment; cases of treatment group received low frequency stimulation besides the above two methods. All patients were assessed respectively with the Fugl-Meyer Assessment and Clinical Nerve Function Impaired Scale at the admission and on 20 days after treatment.ResultsThe motor functions of both groups were improved (P<0.05). But the recovery of treatment group was superior to the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionLow frequency stimulation can promote the stroke patients' motor function recovery.
