Abstract:
ObjectiveIn order to study the effect of three-month rehabilitation on motor function in hemiplegics after stroke. Methods125 patients were randomly divided into two groups, rehabilitation group (72 cases)and control group(53 cases).Patients in the rehabilitation group were given clinical treatment,electric stimulation therapy(EST) and regularly physical therapy, while those in control group were given clinical treatment and unguided self-training, and the evaluation was done in pre-treatment and post-three-month respectively. Motor function was assessed in Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA).ResultsMotor scores in each group had a more significant difference(P<0.001)before and after treatment, the process of scores in the rehabilitation group was obviously superior to that in the control group(P<0.001). Conclusions Rehabilitation training on hemiplegics after stroke may obviously improve motor function, depressing the disability and increasing the living quality.
