| Objective:To investigate the effects of motional feedback training on spasticity of hemiplegic upper limb after stroke.Methods:Forty-three stroke patients with hemiplegia were randomly assigned into two groups receiving motional feedback training and routine rehabilitation therapy,or only normal rehabilitation therapy respectively.Clinical assessments including E-Link Evaluation system (EES) and Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) were performed before and 4 weeks after treatment.Results:After treatment for two weeks,elbow and forearm rotation degrees,and pronation of the forearm muscular tension were significantly increased as compared with those before treatment,more significantly in experimental group than in control group (P<0.05).At 4th week after the treatment,the muscular tension of the forearm in experimental group was significantly reduced as compared with control group (P<0.05).Conclusion:Motional feedback system to provide entertaining and educational rehabilitation method can improve the training fun and enthusiasm.Motional feedback training can significantly alleviate spasticity of the hemiplegic upper limb due to stroke. |
