Background Most stroke survivors (more than 60%) suffer from persistent neurological impairments that significantly affect activities of daily living. Hand functions are essential for doing daily living and working activities. Mirror therapy is shown to be effective in improving hand functional recovery in stroke patients. Objective This study aimed to determine the effect of mirror therapy on improving hand functions in Egyptian chronic stroke patients. Subjects and methods Thirty chronic ischemic stroke patients from both sexes participated in the study. Their ages ranged from 45 to 65 years. They were randomly assigned into two equal groups: the study group that received a selected physical therapy program in addition to the mirror therapy and the control group that received the same selected physical therapy program but without a mirror therapy. Treatment sessions were conducted three times per week for 8 weeks. Range of motion (ROM) of the wrist extension and forearm supination, hand grip strength, and the time of Jebson Hand Function Test (JHFT) were measured before and after the treatment program. Results There were statistically significant increases in the range of motion of the wrist extension and forearm supination and hand grip strength with a decrease in the time of Jebson Hand Function Test in both groups post-treatment. Post-treatment improvement was more significant in the study group compared to the control group. Conclusion Mirror therapy had a positive effect on improving hand motor functional skills in a sample of Egyptian chronic stroke patients.

镜面疗法对埃及慢性脑卒中患者手功能的影响

背景 大多数中风幸存者(超过 60%)患有严重影响日常生活活动的持续性神经损伤。手部功能对于日常生活和工作活动至关重要。镜像疗法已被证明可有效改善中风患者的手部功能恢复。目的 本研究旨在确定镜像疗法对改善埃及慢性脑卒中患者手部功能的影响。受试者和方法 来自两性的三十名慢性缺血性中风患者参加了该研究。他们的年龄从 45 岁到 65 岁不等。他们被随机分为两个相等的组:除镜像疗法外还接受选定物理治疗计划的研究组和接受相同选定物理治疗计划但未接受镜像疗法的对照组。每周进行 3 次治疗,持续 8 周。在治疗计划之前和之后测量手腕伸展和前臂旋后的运动范围 (ROM)、握力和 Jebson 手功能测试 (JHFT) 的时间。结果两组治疗后随着Jebson手功能测试时间的减少,腕部伸展和前臂旋后的运动范围和握力均有统计学意义的增加。与对照组相比,研究组的治疗后改善更为显着。
