Efficacy of poststroke rehabilitation depends on intensity of afferent current from the paretic limb to the lesion. The afferentation course is represented by neuromuscular electrostimulation (NMES) of the paretic hand's finger and hand extensors. The procedure's effect on the focus of acute ischemic lesion was analysed with MRT imaging including diffusion-perfusion-weighted MRT which can assess bioenergetic condition of the focus and brain perfusion. The analysis shows that NMES in acute ischemic stroke does not result in enlargement of the lesion and deterioration of brain circulation. Motor function seems to recover faster in the group given NMES.
Effects of stability training (ST) with the method of biocontrol by stabilogram on walking function were studied in 32 patients with poststroke hemipareses with the disease duration from 1 month to 2 years. The findings evidence that biofeedback by stabilogram has a positive effect not only on static and dynamic stability of patients with poststroke hemiparesis but also on functional mobility of the patients. It improves such important gait characteristics as speed, length and symmetry of the step.
