Filter by:The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of telerehabilitation on upper extremity functions and activities of daily living in chronic hemiplegic patients.
There are few studies on whether botulinum toxin treatment and extracorporeal shock wave therapy are more effective than botulinum toxin alone treatment for post-stroke spasticity.
30 children with a diagnosis of hemiplegic cerebral palsy
The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of virtual reality-mediated upper extremity rehabilitation added to the conventional rehabilitation program on upper extremity, quality of life, range of motion and spasticity in patients with stroke.
Our objective is to examine the impact of residing in urban or rural areas on the utilization of healthcare services, self-efficacy, and quality of life among individuals with hemiplegia in Turkey.
Comparison of the effects of cycling functional electrical stimulation and conservative rehabilitation therapy on the functional status and muscle characteristics of stroke patients
Muscle strength can be defined as the ability of skeletal muscle to develop force for the purpose of providing stability and mobility within the musculoskeletal system, so that functional movement can take place.
Hemiplegia is a disease with many complications in its clinical course. One of these complications is respiratory dysfunction. It is aimed to determine the respiratory function problems of patients with hemiplegia and to eliminate the problems by using neurophysiological facilitation techniques. Restrictive and obstructive pulmonary dysfunction occurs in hemiplegic patients. Decreased movement in the thorax, decreased respiratory muscle strength, changes in muscle tone, and changes in the central nervous system cause restrictive respiratory disorders. A significant decrease is observed in FEV1(Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second), FEV1%, FVC(Forced Vital Capacity), FVC% values. Alveolar ventilation is maintained through the central nervous system. For alveolar ventilation, the brain must transmit the impulse of breathing to the muscles through the spinal cord and peripheral nervous system. Lesions occurring in any part of the central nervous system affect respiratory functions. Hemiplegia is a condition that affects the movement of the diaphragm. During quiet breathing, there is a significant decrease in the movement of the diaphragm. Chest expansion is reduced. In a study, it was reported that neuromuscular facilitation techniques increase short-term ventilation and are reliable techniques for people with neurological damage. When we look at the literature, there is no study showing the effects of neurophysiological facilitation techniques on respiration in hemiplegic patients. The aim of our study; To determine the effects and safety of neurophysiological facilitation techniques in terms of pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, functional capacity and quality of life in hemiplegic patients.
Working on a vertical surface is one of the best activities children can do to make themselves more successful in many areas as an infant which builds all those foundational skills required for the all-important task of handwriting.
The study aimed to assess the effects of a virtual balance training program using the Thera-Trainer Balo (TTB) device along with conservative rehabilitation program on the clinical findings; standing, stepping, walking and balance measures; and activities of daily living in patients with stroke.
