Rhythmic auditory stimulation(RAS)with repetitive and rhythmic sound sensory signals can improve motor functional recovery by inducing rhythmic movement for patients with motor dysfunction due to neurological impairment.As an emerging intervention for the treatment of post-stroke hemiplegic patients,RAS can improve the walking ability of post-stroke hemiplegic patients,correct abnormal gait,improve balance function,and improve patients'upper and lower limb function.Its mechanism of action may be related to the rhythmic entrainment motor system and auditory-motor synchronisation.In addition,RAS can be combined with various other rehabilitation techniques to better promote the recovery of motor function in stroke patients.This article reviewed the research progress of RAS in motor function recovery of post-stroke patients to provide guidance for clinical application.
