RESUMEN
Objective To explore the effect of remind-to-move treatment on upper limb motor function,activities of daily living and participation in patients with subacute stroke. Methods From February,2016 to October,2017,45 patients with mild to medium upper limbs dysfunction after stroke were randomly assigned to control group(n=23)and experimental group(n=22).The control group accepted rou-tine occupational therapy,while the experimental group wore a wristwatch on the hemiplegic forearm to encour-age the predetermined training programs,for three weeks.They were measured with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Up-per Extremity(FMA-UE),Function Independence Measurement(FIM),Motor Activity Log(MAL),and Stroke Impact Scale(SIS)before and after treatment. Results Both groups improved in part of the scores of three scales after treatment(P<0.05),and improved more in the experimental group than in the control group in scores of FMA-UE and FIM,and some sub-scores of MAL and SIS(t>1.183,P<0.05),with no significant difference in other indexes(P>0.05). Conclusion Remind-to-move treatment can promote the recovery of upper limb motor function,activities of daily living and participation in the patients with subacute stroke.
