| description | Objective:To investigate the instant effect of motor imitation training on finger movement of chronic stroke patients.Methods:The cross-over control design was used and tests of imitation condition and control condition were conducted on 10 chronic stroke patients with hemiplegia successively. In imitation condition, patients were asked to imitate the model activity in the video, which was a flexor and extensor movement of fingers. In control condition, subjects were asked to extend and flex their own finger at a same rhythm. The electronic angle gauge was used to record the active flexion-extension movement(AROM)range, the largest stretching angle and maximum flexion angle of the second metacarpal joint. The AROM difference between the two conditions was also calculated.Results:The AROM of patients in the imitation condition was significantly higher than that in the control condition. The maximum extension angle of the imitation condition was significantly larger than that of the control condition, while no significant difference of the maximum flexion angle was found between the two conditions. The maximum extension angle of the control condition was positively correlated with the AROM difference between the two conditions.Conclusion:The motor imitation training is effective for the recovery of flexor and extensor movement of the fingers of chronic stroke patients with finger dysfunction. |
