简要总结
To determine the effects of motor relearning programme with and without electrical muscle stimulation on gait, functional independence and quality of life in hemiplegic stroke patients.
详细描述
A study was performed a motor relearning program in stroke survivors. A clinically significant improvement was found in the motor relearning groups, and only in one study is this improvement significant compared to another intervention.
Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Improves Activities of Daily Living Post-Stroke. While the potential for enhancing functional motor ability seems less clear, the current systematic review and meta analysis's results point to a significant positive impact of NMES on ADL function during the post stroke rehabilitation process.
People with hemiparesis who received both conventional treatment and interventions based on motor relearning showed a significant improvement in their level of disability. There were no appreciable gains in the HRQoL perception.
Many research investigations have been carried out to assess the effects of motor relearning programs with regard to specific functional aspects and physical deficiencies. Up to the researcher's knowledge, there is no data to assess the effects of electrical muscle stimulation along with motor relearning programs in stroke patients. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to compare how a motor relearning program with and without electrical muscle stimulation affects hemiplegic stroke patients' gait, level of functional independence, and quality of life.

结局指标
主要结局
Functional Independence Measurement (FIM).
时间窗: baseline week 1 and post interventional week 8
The Functional Independence Measure (FIM) instrument was applied to assess the changes in functional ability. Out of the eighteen items in the FIM, thirteen evaluate physical domains and five evaluate cognitive functions. Each item is scored from 1 to 7 ("1" total dependence; "7" complete independence). The final score ranges from 18 to 126.
次要结局
- Dynamic Gait Index(baseline week 1 and post interventional week 8)
- Stroke specific quality of life(baseline week 1 and post interventional week 8)
