Summary

Parallel-group, single-blinded controlled clinical trial. The study involved stroke patients (no more than 3 points on a scale Rankin) dived of the control group and experimental group. Control group received daily sessions of conventional physical therapy. In addition to the same conventional physical therapy treatment, the participants of the experimental group underwent repetitive upper limb Functional Proprioceptive Stimulations (FPS) sessions.

Conditions

  • Stroke
  • Motor Disorders
  • Upper Extremity Paresis
  • Muscle Weakness
  • Vibration; Exposure

Interventions

DEVICE

FPS group

Vibration frequency ranged from 0 to 100 Hz. There were 3 modes of FPS application during rehabilitation course. 1) anti-spasticity mode (FV): the stimulators were placed in the middle of the muscles of the affected limb (i.e. unilaterally); 2) bilateral mode of proprioceptive facilitation; and 3) the unilateral mode of the proprioceptive facilitation. The 2 first sessions were realized with bilateral FPS stimulations plus the anti-spasticity FV mode to reduce the level of hypertonia. Then for 6 consecutive sessions unilateral FPS stimulations of the affected sides imitating the drawing of a straight lines (horizontal, vertical, diagonal), preparing for writing (drawing a circle, triangle, square, spiral) were realized. At last, the 4 remaining FPS sessions were realized unilaterally imitating and promoting the realization of everyday life activities.

OTHER

Conventional therapy group

Patients received sessions of traditional physical therapy: individual therapy sessions including exercises to strengthen muscles, stretching, reflex exercises for large, medium and small muscle groups of the upper limbs (ontogeny-oriented kinesiotherapy (OOKT), PNF - proprioceptive neuro-muscle facilitation, training and practice of functional rational self-service tasks). 12 sessions in total were realized 5 times a week and lasted 40 minutes each.
