| Objective: To observe the effect of sling exercise therapy (SET) on the recovery of balance function in stroke patients. Methods: Totally, 40 patients with stroke recovery were randomly divided into control group and treatment group with 20 cases each. The control group and treatment group received routine rehabilitation training, and the treatment group received SET additionally. Before and after 4 weeks of treatment, the patients were assessed using Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Barthel Index (BI), the average EMG (AEMG) and median frequency (MF) values of the erector spinal muscle surface electromyography. Results: After 4 weeks of treatment, the BBS score and BI value in the two groups were significantly higher than those before treatment (all P<0.01), and those in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Before treatment, the AEMG and MF values of the un-affected side in the two groups were significantly higher than those of the affected side (both P<0.05); after 4 weeks of treatment, the AEMG and MF values of the erector spinae of the un-affected side in the two groups were significantly higher than those before treatment (all P<0.05). The AEMG and MF values of the un-affected side in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference in the AEMG and MF values between the two sides in the treatment group. Conclusion: SET can improve the AEMG, MF value, BBS and BI scores of erector spinae in patients with stroke, improve the motor function of trunk muscles in patients with stroke, thereby improving the balance function and activities of daily living, which is worthy of clinical application. |
