Effect of Rocker Bar Ankle Foot Orthosis on Functional Mobility in Post-Stroke Hemiplegic Patients: Timed Up and Go and Gait Speed Assessments
Objectives: Ankle Foot Orthoses (AFOs) are widely utilized to improve walking ability in hemiplegic patients. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of Rocker bar Ankle Foot Orthosis (RAFO) on functional mobility in post-stroke hemiplegic patients. Methods: Fifteen hemiplegic patients (men and women) who were at least 6-months poststroke and able to walk without an assis...

متن کاملThe effect of combining low frequency repetitive trans-cranial magnetic stimulation and conventional rehabilitation in improving functional behavior of hemiplegic patients
Purpose: Some new methods of treatment focus on using magnetic stimulation as a means of induction currents in the brain to produce therapeutic effects. The aim of this clinical trial was to determine the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) plus routine rehabilitation on hand grip and wrist motor function in hemiplegic patients.Materials and Methods: Twelve hemiplegic...
متن کاملEVALUATION OF PATIENTS WITH HEMIPLEGIC MIGRAINE IN MACKENZIE HEADACHE CLINIC
Background: The sporadic type of Hemiplegic Migraine (HM) is sometimes observed among migrainous patients (MP) and mimics ischemic strokes. Methods: In an evaluation of two-hundred consecutive adult MP in the Mackenzie headache clinic, Canada during 2004 , 9% of the patients met the criteria established by the International Headache Society for sporadic HM. Female to male sex ratio, family...
متن کاملDifferences in Rheobase and Chronaxie between the Paretic and Non-Paretic Sides of Hemiplegic Stroke Patients: a Pilot Study
[Purpose] Rheobase and chronaxie are used to confirm muscle degeneration. For stroke patients, however, the uses of rheobase and chronaxie in determining paretic side muscle degeneration is not yet fully understood. Thus, in this study, we examined the electrical properties of the quadriceps muscles of stroke patients' paretic side and compared them with their respective values on the non-paret...
