ABSTRACT
Objective:
To explore the effects of robot-assisted therapy combined with mirror therapy (MT) on upper limbs in patients with hemiplegia after stroke.Methods:
From January, 2017 to June, 2018, 56 patients with hemiplegia after stroke were randomly divided into control group (n = 28) and observation group (n = 28). The control group received conventional therapy, and the treatment group received robot-assisted therapy combined with MT, additionally. They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE), Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT), Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and four weeks after treatment.Results:
Four weeks after treatment, the scores of FMA-UE, WMFT and MBI were better in both groups (t > 2.959, P < 0.05), and were better in the observation group than in the control group (t > 4.732, P < 0.001).Conclusion:
Robot-assisted therapy combined with MT could improve the function of upper limb and activities of daily living in patients with hemiplegia after stroke.
