Neurorestorative Effects of Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy after Stroke: An Integrative Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Stroke has been considered as one of the main causes of death and of motor and cognitive sequels. Especially, many patients with upper limb hemiparesis improved their motor action and showed meaningful cortical changes after treatment with constraint-induced movement therapy. Therefore, this review aims to verify the literature about neuroimaging and behavioral evidences in the cortical reorganization through the use of the constraint-induced movement therapy. So, we conducted the literature research in indexed journals from many databases like Pubmed, Medline, Cochrane Database, Lilacs and Scielo. We concluded that the behavioral and neuroimaging studies using traditional and modified constraint-induced movement therapy promote cortical reorganization.

Background and purpose: Functional disabilities due to stroke produce a wide range of problems in daily activities. Rehabilitation approaches focus on preventing and reducing contractures and deformities. But constraint-induced therapy focuses on improving the performance of hemiplegic patients. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of constraint-induced therapy on strength a...
