Modified constraint-induced movement therapy for upper extremity recovery post stroke: what is the evidence?
BACKGROUND Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is an effective treatment for upper extremity (UE) recovery post stroke. Difficulties implementing a traditional CIMT approach have led to development of protocols featuring varying practice schedules, including a 10-week, 3 times per week intervention, termed modified CIMT (mCIMT). To date, systematic reviews of CIMT have grouped the variou...
متن کاملComparison of conventional therapy, intensive therapy and modified constraint-induced movement therapy to improve upper extremity function after stroke.
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of 4 weeks of intervention using conventional rehabilitation, intensive conventional rehabilitation and modified constraint-induced movement therapy on the hemiplegic upper extremity in stroke patients. METHODS Thirty stroke patients (mean age: 63.3, standard deviation 9.63 years; mean time since stroke: 11.33, standard deviation 8.29 weeks) were randomly divi...
متن کاملEffectiveness of modified constraint-induced movement therapy on upper limb function in stroke subjects.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Of all stroke survivors, more than 50% are left with motor disabilities. Impairment of upper limb movement is a common motor disability. Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) is an intervention which has been used for the treatment of upper extremity motor disabilities in stroke patients. Although CIMT is an effective intervention, a recent survey revealed that this ...
متن کاملA placebo-controlled trial of constraint-induced movement therapy for upper extremity after stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Constraint-Induced Movement therapy (CI therapy) is a neurorehabilitation technique developed to improve use of the more affected upper extremity after stroke. A number of studies have reported positive effects for this intervention, but an experiment with a credible placebo control group has not yet been published. METHODS We conducted a placebo-controlled trial of CI ...
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...
