RESUMO
Objective:To explore the effect of somatosensory interactive games on lower-limb function after stroke. Methods:Randomized controlled trials (RCT) about the effectiveness of somatosensory interactive games on lower-limb function after stroke were retrieved from domestic and foreign databases, from inception to September, 2018. After literature quality evaluation, a meta-analysis was performed using RevMan5.3. Results:A total of 414 patients were included in eleven articles. Compared with routine rehabilitation measures, somatosensory interactive games improved Berg Balance Scale scores (WMD = 1.75, 95%CI 0.95~2.54, P < 0.001), increased stride frequency (SMD = 1.21, 95%CI 0.03~2.38, P = 0.04), decreased the time of Timed Up and Go Test (WMD = -4.21, 95%CI -7.36~-0.89, P = 0.01), and improved the motor function of lower limbs (SMD = 0.66, 95%CI 0.15~1.17, P = 0.01), but worked less in pace (SMD = 0.05, 95%CI -0.98~1.09, P = 0.92) and 10-metre Maximum Walking Speed (WMD = 3.54, 95%CI -1.12~8.20, P = 0.14). Conclusion:Compared with the routine rehabilitation, somatosensory interactive games can improve balance, walking and motor function. However, it is needed to further research on the pace and speed.
