| Objective: To explore the efficacy of exercise balance instrument training combined with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) treatment for the balance function of stroke patients. Methods: Patients were randomly divided into observation group and control group, 40 cases in each group. Among them, 8 cases in the observation group fell off, a total of 32 cases completed the treatment, and 3 cases in the control group fell off, a total of 37 cases completed the treatment. The control group was trained with dynamic balance instrument for balance dysfunction on the basis of routine rehabilitation treatment, and the observation group was treated with dynamic balance instrument and low-frequency rTMS on the basis of routine rehabilitation treatment. Both groups were treated for two courses. The BBS score, FMB score and Pro-Kin balance test were assessed before treatment and after 2 sessions of treatment in the two groups. Results: The length of motion and the area of motion ellipse were significantly improved after treatment as compared with those before treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The observation indexes in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions: The efficacy of rTMS combined with balance instrument in improving the balance function of stroke patients was significant, which was superior to that of balance instrument used alone. |
