Effect of lower limb rehabilitation robot combined with transcranial magnetic stimulation on lower limb function of stroke patients
Objective:To analyze the rehabilitation effect of lower limb rehabilitation robot combined with transcranial magnetic stimulation(TMS)on lower limb function of stroke patients.Methods:100 stroke patients who were treated in Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2021 to June 2023 were selected.The selected patients were divided into the control group and the treatment group randomly,with 50 cases in each group.The control group was treated with conventional rehabilitation training combined with lower limb rehabilitation robot.The treatment group was treated with TMS combined with lower limb rehabilitation robot.The joint mobility index,Fugl-Meyer assessment,Berg balance scale,activities of daily living(ADLs)and WHOQOL-100 scores,and clinical efficacy of patients in the two groups before and after treatment were observed and compared.Results:Before treatment,there was no significant difference in joint mobility index,Fugl-Meyer assessment,Berg balance scale,ADLs and WHOQOL-100 scores between the two groups(P>0.05).After treatment,the above indexes of the two groups were significantly improved,and those indexes in the treatment group was better than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:TMS combined with rehabilitation robot could effectively promote the rehabilitation of lower limb function of stroke patients,enhance the flexibility of hip and knee joints,improve the establishment of body balance.Meanwhile,it could further strengthen the recovery of motor function,improve the ADLs ability and cultivate positive life expectations of stroke patients.
