Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of therapeutic postural placement on postural control and balance in stroke patients with hemiplegia. MethodsFrom January, 2020 to June, 2022, 60 stroke patients in Cangzhou Hospital of Integrated TCM-WM•Hebei were randomly divided into control group (n = 30) and observation group (n = 30). Both groups accepted routine rehabilitation, while the observation group accepted therapeutic postural placement based on the concept of Bobath additionally. Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Lower Extremity (FMA-LE), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke Patient (PASS) and Pro-kin balance instrument were used to evaluate the postural control and balance function before and four weeks after treatment, while the area of ellipse and length of motion with eyes open and closed were recorded, respectively. ResultsAfter treatment, the scores of FMA-LE, PASS and BBS significantly increased (|t| > 3.856, P < 0.001), and the area of ellipse and length of motion with eyes open and closed decreased in both groups (|t| > 4.083, P < 0.001); all the indexes were better in the observation group than in the control group (|t| > 2.261, P < 0.05). ConclusionThe therapeutic postural placement could effectively improve the postural control ability and balance function in stroke patients.
