Constraint-induced movement therapy after stroke.
Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) was developed to overcome upper limb impairments after stroke and is the most investigated intervention for the rehabilitation of patients. Original CIMT includes constraining of the non-paretic arm and task-oriented training. Modified versions also apply constraining of the non-paretic arm, but not as intensive as original CIMT. Behavioural strategies...
متن کاملActive finger extension predicts outcomes after constraint-induced movement therapy for individuals with hemiparesis after stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is a rehabilitative strategy used primarily with the post-stroke population to increase the functional use of the neurologically weaker upper extremity through massed practice while restraining the lesser involved upper extremity. Whereas research evidence supports CIMT, limited evidence exists regarding the characteristics of in...
متن کاملConstraint-induced movement therapy for motor recovery after stroke.
A new therapeutic approach to rehabilitation of movement after stroke, termed Constraint-Induced (CI) Movement Therapy, has been derived from basic research with monkeys given somatosensory deafferentation. CI consists of a family of therapies; their common element is that they induce stroke patients to greatly increase the use of a more affected upper extremity for many hours a day over a 10-1...
متن کاملA meta-analysis of constraint-induced movement therapy after stroke.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of constraint-induced movement therapy in adult stroke patients and to examine the impact of time since stroke and various treatment modalities. DATA SOURCES PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane and PEDro trial registers were searched for clinical trials published before November 2012. STUDY SELECTION Randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials of constraint-induce...
متن کاملConstraint-induced movement therapy for upper extremities in stroke patients.
BACKGROUND In stroke patients, upper limb paresis affects many activities of daily life. Reducing disability is therefore a major aim of rehabilitation programmes for hemiparetic patients. Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is a current approach to stroke rehabilitation that implies the forced use and the massed practice of the affected arm by restraining the unaffected arm. OBJECTIVE...
