The Effect of rTMS with Rehabilitation on Hand Function and Corticomotor Excitability in Sub-Acute Stroke
Objectives: Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability. Hand motor impairment resulting from chronic stroke may have extensive physical, psychological, financial, and social implications despite available rehabilitative treatments. The best time to start treatment for stroke, is in sub-acute period. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a method of stimulating and ...

متن کاملImmediate Effect of Mirror Therapy Using Pegboard Training on Hand Function and Muscle Activities in Individuals with Asymmetrical Hand Function
Objectives: Hand function is critical for daily life and work, especially with the use of electronic devices. This study determined the effect of mirror therapy in individuals with asymmetrical hand function. Method: Forty-two men with asymmetrical hand function were recruited. All participants were randomly divided into two groups: sham control (n = 21) and mirror therapy (n = 21). Both group...
متن کاملImproving hand function in chronic stroke.
BACKGROUND Recovery of function following stroke plateaus in about 1 year, typically leaving upper arm function better than that in the hand. Since there is competition among body parts for territory in the sensorimotor cortex, even limited activity of the upper arm might prevent the hand from gaining more control, particularly when the territory is reduced in size because of the stroke. Deaffe...
متن کاملBiomechanical Studies on Hand Function in Rehabilitation
Hand function requires interaction of muscles, tendons, bones, joints and nerves. The unique construction of the hand provides a wide range of important functions such as manipulation, sense of touch, communication and grip strength (Schieber and Santello 2004). The hand is used in many ways, and in many different situations in our daily lives; so injuries, diseases or deformities of the hand c...
