| Objective:To explore the rehabilitation effect of closed kinetic chain exercises on upper extremity motor function and ability in stroke patients. Methods:100 stroke patients were divided into 2 groups: control group (50 cases) receiving neurophysiological and neurodevelopmental (NPT and NDT) therapy only; treatment group (50 cases) receiving closed kinetic chain (CKC) exercises combined with NPT and NDT therapy. Both groups were treated for 6 weeks, 5 days a week, 40 min per day. Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) and Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) were used to evaluate upper extremity motor function. The motor activity log (MAL) was performed to assess upper extremity ability in activities. FMA, ARAT and MAL scores were measured in both groups before and after treatment. Results:There were increases of FMA, ARAT and MAL scores in both groups after treatment as compared with pre-treatment (P<0.05), and the scores of FMA, ARAT and MAL in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion:CKC exercises can significantly increase the motor function and ability of the upper extremity in stroke patients. |
