Effect of Mirror Therapy on Upper Limb Function: A Single Subject Study
Objectives: Mirror therapy is a unique treatment with a touch of modality that is purported to improve the motor function of the affected limb in individuals with hemiplegia. Previous studies have focused on the neuro-physiological factors underlying the mechanism of the clinical effect of this technique. The present study aims to understand the mechanism using the rehabilitation method and neu...
متن کاملThe Effectiveness of Mirror Therapy on Upper Limb Function in Stroke Patients: A Single Case Experimental Design
Objectives: To assess the effectiveness of mirror therapy (MT) on upper limb (UL) function of sub-acute stroke patients. Methods: This study is a single case experimental design with two participants. Twenty minutes of MT were implemented four times a week over a period of four weeks. For baseline phase, repeated measurements were performed six times for one participant and four times for the ...
متن کاملPredictive Value of Somatosensation for Manual Dexterity and Upper Limb Motor Function in Stroke Survivors
Objectives: One of the most disabling impairments following stroke is upper limb impairment. Despite the important role of somatosensory function in motor control and high prevalence of somatosensory deficits in stroke survivors, little attention has been paid to its effect on UE motor function in chronic stroke survivors. Thus, the aim of this study is to explore the correlation between differ...
متن کاملDoes Action Observation Training With Immediate Physical Practice Improve Hemiparetic Upper-Limb Function in Chronic Stroke?
BACKGROUND The mirror neuron network provides a neural mechanism to prime the motor system through action observation in stroke survivors. OBJECTIVE To examine whether action observation training with immediate physical practice improves upper-limb function in chronic stroke. METHODS In a within-subject design, 14 chronic stroke survivors were assessed at baseline, then participated in 2 we...
