Stimulator for Treating Post-stroke Shoulder Subluxation
A miniature stimulator was developed to drive a set of percutaneous wire electrodes implanted into the shoulder muscles for treating shoulder subluxation and pain in stroke survivors. The 8-channel stimulator was built around a low-power microcontroller and packaged into a pager-sized box. A single AA-size battery can power the device for about 50 hours of operation. Stimulation pulse trains wi...
متن کاملCollar sling for bilateral shoulder subluxation.
A collarwitharm cuffs forreducl|' tion of bilateral shoulder subluxation was developed for a 6lyear-old businessman who had good hand function, but in whom polymyositis with atrophy of the proximal muscles bilaterally hadresulted in severe shoulder subluxation and pain (Figure l). Other slings designed to reduce shoulder subluxation were unacceptable for our patient for the following reasons: l...
متن کاملMeasuring subluxation of the hemiplegic shoulder: reliability of a method.
OBJECTIVE Subluxation of the shoulder after stroke can be measured according to the method described by Van Langenberghe and Hogan. METHODS To evaluate the reliability of this method, the shoulder radiographs of 25 patients were available for this study. Two independent raters each assessed these radiographs twice. RESULTS The intrarater reliability was good: percentage of agreement was 88 ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Static Magnet Therapy on Pain-Free Shoulder Passive Range of Motion in Patients with Shoulder Subluxation after Stroke: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Introduction: One of the stroke complications is hemiplegia, which can cause subluxation of the shoulder joint and reduce the passive range of motion of the affected shoulder, resulting in limited movement. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of static magnet therapy on pain-free shoulder passive range of motion in patients with shoulder subluxation after stroke. Methods: This clinical tri...
متن کاملPrevention of shoulder subluxation after stroke with electrical stimulation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Subluxation is a significant problem in poststroke hemiplegia, resulting in pain and loss of function. Current treatments are not proved and not considered effective. It has been demonstrated that cyclical electrical stimulation of the shoulder muscles can reduce existing subluxation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether electrical stimulation could prevent ...
