Effects of early intelligent feedback rehabilitation training system of lower extremities on walking ability in stroke patients with hemiplegia / 中国脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effects of early intelligent feedback rehabilitation training system of lower extremities on walking ability in stroke patients with hemiplegia. Methods Forty post-stroke hemiplegic patients (onset 0. 05). Four weeks after treatment, the FMA-L scores were improved in both the intelligent and conventional rehabilitation groups compared to before treatment (P<0. 01);the differences were 20. 0 ± 6. 2 and 5. 1 ± 1. 6 respectively before and after treatment. The degree of improvement of the intelligent rehabilitation group was better than that of the conventional rehabilitation group (P<0. 01). Holden walking function classification showed that only the intelligent rehabilitation group was improved as compared to before treatment (P<0. 01). Four weeks after treatment ,the strength and tone of the tibialis anterior muscle and gastrocnemius muscle of both groups were increased compared to before treatment (P <0. 01 ). The differences of the strength and tone of the tibialis anterior muscle were 20 +7 and 12 +4μV respectively in the rehabilitation groups before and after treatment,and those were 12+4 and 9+3μV in the conventional rehabilitation group;the differences of the strength and tone of the gastrocnemius muscle of the intelligent rehabilitation group were 25+8 and 19+6μV respectively before and after treatment,and those of the conventional rehabilitation group were 10+3 and 11+2μV respectively. There was significant difference between the intelligent rehabilitation group and the conventional rehabilitation group (P <0. 01 ). Conclusion The treatment of early intelligent feedback rehabilitation training system of the lower extremities may significantly improve the walking ability of the lower extremities in stroke patients with hemiplegia.
