  • The effect of end-traction upper limb rehabilitation training system on upper limb motor dysfunction after stroke

    ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of the end-traction upper limb rehabilitation training system on patients with upper limb motor dysfunction after stroke.MethodsPatients with upper limb motor dysfunction who were admitted to the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from September to November 2019 were selected. According to the software, the patients were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. Both groups received conventional medical treatment, basic rehabilitation, and activities of daily living training. In addition, the control group received traditional occupational therapy, while the experimental group received end-traction upper limb rehabilitation training. The training time of both groups was 30 min/ (times ·d) and 5 days per week. Rehabilitation evaluation and recording were performed before and after the four-week treatment in both groups using the simplified upper extremity Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) and the modified Barthel index (MBI).ResultsA total of 36 patients were enrolled, with 18 in each group. All patients completed the experiment, and no special discomfort was observed. Before the treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in FMA and MBI between the experimental group [(13.22±3.13) and (49.66±6.81) points] and the control group [(14.78±1.70) and (51.67±6.65) points] (t=1.858, 0.896; P=0.072, 0.377). After four-week treatment, FMA and MBI in both groups improved significantly (P<0.05); the difference between the experimental group [(27.56±15.68) and (73.55±8.72) points] and the control group [(17.67±6.73) and (65.33±9.20) points] was statistically significant (t=2.459, 2.751; P=0.019, 0.009).ConclusionsThe end-traction upper limb rehabilitation training system can significantly improve the upper limb motor function of patients with upper limb motor dysfunction after stroke and improve the patients’ daily life ability. It is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
