Effect of visual feedback gait analysis training on limb function recovery in hemiplegic patients after acute cerebral infarction
Objective To explore the rehabilitation effect of visual feedback gait analysis training on limb function recovery in hemiplegic patients after acute cerebral infarction.Methods A total of 86 hemiplegic patients after acute cerebral infarction admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Science and Technology from May 2021 to May 2023 were enrolled and divided into an observation group and a control group with 43 patients in each group based on a random number table method.Both groups received routine rehabilitation training,while the observation group also received visual feedback gait analysis training for 8 weeks.The motor function,balance ability,posture control ability,time up and go test(TUGT),and gait parameters were compared between the two groups be-fore and after intervention.Results After intervention,the Fugl-Meyer lower limb motor function score(FMA),five-times sit-to-stand test(FTSST),time up and go test(TUGT),walking cycle,step length deviation,ratio of affected to healthy side support,and ratio of affected to healthy side swing were decreased in both groups,with the observation group having lower scores than the control group(P<0.05).After intervention,the Berg balance scale(BBS),walking speed,and step fre-quency were increased in both groups,with the observation group having higher scores than the con-trol group(P<0.05).Conclusion Visual feedback gait analysis training can promote the recovery of motor function,enhance balance function and sit-to-stand transfer ability,and improve gait abnormali-ties caused by hemiplegia in hemiplegic patients after acute cerebral infarction.
