The influence of finger dexterity training on hand function of hemiplegic patients in convalescent period of stroke
Objective To explore the influence of finger dexterity training on hand function of hemiplegic patients in convalescent period of stroke.Methods 60 hemiplegic patients in convalescent period of stroke were divided into a control group and an experimental group by random envelope method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group received conventional rehabilitation treatment,while the experimental group received finger dexterity training on the basis of the control group.The Brunnstrom motor function rating,hemiplegic hand function grading and Lindmark wrist-hand function score were evaluated and compared between the two groups before treatment,at the second time after 20 training sessions(7 weeks of treatment),and at the third time after 40 training sessions(14 weeks of treatment).Results After 7 weeks of treatment,there was no significant difference in the Brunnstrom motor function rating between the two groups(P>0.05).After 14 weeks of treatment,the Brunnstrom motor function rating of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group,and there was a significant difference between groups(P<0.05).After 7 weeks of treatment,there was no significant difference in the hemiplegic hand function grading between the two groups(P>0.05).After 14 weeks of treatment,the hemiplegic hand function grading in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group,and there was a significant difference between groups(P<0.05).After 7 and 14 weeks of treatment,the Lindmark wrist-hand function score of the experimental groups were(10.68±3.30)and(17.48±5.17)points,which were higher than(8.70±2.58)and(14.75±4.89)points of the control group,and there was a significant difference between groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Finger dexterity training can effectively improve hand function in hemiplegic patients in convalescent period of stroke.
