Facilitation of Corticospinal Excitability According to Motor Imagery and Mirror Therapy in Healthy Subjects and Stroke Patients
OBJECTIVE To delineate the changes in corticospinal excitability when individuals are asked to exercise their hand using observation, motor imagery, voluntary exercise, and exercise with a mirror. METHOD The participants consisted of 30 healthy subjects and 30 stroke patients. In healthy subjects, the amplitudes and latencies of motor evoked potential (MEP) were obtained using seven condition...
متن کاملVirtual reality system for upper extremity rehabilitation of chronic stroke patients living in the community
For stroke patients with residual motor impairment, access to sufficient rehabilitation after discharge is often difficult to achieve due to cost, distance and availability of rehabilitative services. Virtual Reality (VR) rehabilitation is a promising method for maximizing the intensity and convenience of task specific rehabilitation training. However, many of the systems that have been develop...
متن کاملPremovement facilitation of corticospinal excitability before simple and sequential movement.
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether premovement facilitation of corticospinal excitability before sequential movement was different from that before simple movement. Each of 7 participants who performed choice reaction tasks with the right hand pressed a force transducer with the index finger in response to a start cue or pressed the transducers sequentially with the index fing...
متن کاملEffects of Upper Extremity Coordination Exercises Based on Fatigue Prediction on Upper Extremity Sensory-motor Functions in Chronic Stroke Survivors
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effect of upper extremity coordination exercises based on fatigue prediction on fine and gross manual dexterity, upper limb motor function, shoulder and elbow proprioception, occupational performance, and activities of daily living in chronic stroke survivors. Methods: In this pilot double-blind randomized clinical trial, 24 chronic strokes were ...
متن کاملUpper Extremity Rehabilitation Program Using Inertial Sensors and Virtual Reality for Patients with Upper Extremity Hemiplegia due to Disorders after Stroke
Among the hemiplegic disorders caused by complications of stroke, the functional recovery of upper extremities is slower than the recovery of other functions. In this study, a wireless motion tracking system to transfer motion data on the patient's upper extremity movements was developed using inertial sensors consisting of a three-axis accelerometer, gyro, and geo-magnetic sensor. In addition,...
