Electrostimulation, controlled by electromyography in treating postapoplectic hemiparesis

Abstract

In this work therapeutic results of three groups of patients with postapoplectic spastic hemiparesis of the ischemic origin are given: of the first group (22 people) subject to electrostimulation, controlled by EMG (EMG-ES) in combination with kinesiotheraphy (KT), of the second group (12 people) subject to usual electrostimulation and KT and of the third group, having only KT. Patients of all three groups showed distinct decrease of spasticity, increase of muscle strength and improvement of arbitrary motility more expressed in the first group. Thus, EMG-ES in combination with KT is offered as the most rational rehabilitation method for patients, having had insult even some years ago.
