Résumé
@#Objective To study the effects of ankle-foot retractor on ankle joint motion and equilibrium function of stroke hemiplegic patients.Methods 74 patients were divided into two groups: observation group (n=36) and control group (n=38). The control group was trainedby routine rehabilitation training program and electro-uprise bed, the observation group was trained by ankle-foot retractor based on routinerehabilitation training program. The effect was evaluated after 8 weeks. Results After training, either the observation group or the controlgroup showed significant improvement at motion of ankle joint, activity of daily living (ADL), and equilibrium function, but the observationgroup was better than the control group (P<0.001). Conclusion Ankle-foot retractor plays a positive role on motion of ankle joint, ADL andequilibrium function in stroke patients.

@#Objective To study the effect of motor imagery on balance rehabilitation in hemiplegics after stroke.Methods 20 hemiplegic patients who were in chronic stage(above 6 months)were randomly divided into two groups.Normal rehabilitation was performed in the whole stage and motor imagery was added in group A in stage Ⅰ and group B in stage Ⅱ.All patients were assessed with Berg Balance Scale(BBS),blance subscale of the Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FM-B),max affected limb-loading per weight and Functional Independence Measure(FIM)at the beginning and the ending of the every stage,respectively.Results The deference scores of BBS and FIM,as well as max affected limb-loading per weight between in the stage with motor imagery was better than those in the stage without motor imagery(P<0.01),as well as that of FM-B score(P<0.05).Conclusion Motor imagery can improve balance rehabilitation and activity of daily living in chronic hemiplegics.
