ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo explore the effect of motor on functional recovery of the lower limb in hemiplegic patients after cerebral infarction. Methods62 patients recovering from cerebral infarction were divided into the control group (30 cases) and motor imagery group (32 cases). All patients received routine treatment and a motor relearning program. Patients in the motor imagery group were given mental practice in activities of the lower limb. They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessments (FMA) and Modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after treatment. ResultsThe scores of FMA and MBI were improved in the motor imagery group compared with those in the control group (P<0.05) after treatment. ConclusionMotor imagery can facilitate the recovery of lower limb function in patients with hemiplegia.
