Overview

Brief Summary

We conducted a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effect of repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) for the prevention of shoulder subluxation after stroke. The results showed that rPMS for approximately 20 minutes per day, 5 days per week for 6 weeks, in addition to the conventional rehabilitation, prevented the occurrence of shoulder subluxation 6 weeks. Furthermore, it was suggested that this effect could be maintained until 6 weeks after the end of the rPMS intervention.
