Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Many treatments are involved in upper limb motor recovery after stroke, however, few reports concerning independent function-mediated training.
OBJECTIVE: To explorer the effect of muscle strength training and functional training for patient with negative symptom on upper limb motor recovery after stroke.
METHODS: One patient with hemiplegia was asked to finish the movement of Brunnstrom Ⅴ and tested sEMG and video. According to the principle and method of evidence-based medicine, paralytic muscles were found and as an evidence for treatment strategy and movement prescription. The reasons of function recovery were explore through Motion parameter analysis combined sEMG index. According to the motor control theory, the development of affected muscle was observed prior to and after treatment.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: After the rehabilitative training for 150 times, the subject had finished the motion function of upper limb (eat banana) about 14 times. The effect of muscle strength training and functional training are very effective for the patient with negative symptom.
