Effects of Mirror Therapy on Subacute Stroke Patients’ Brain Waves and Upper Extremity Functions

Abstract: Abstract.[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of mirror therapy on subacute stroke patients' brain waves and upper extremity functions. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty patients who experienced the onset of stroke within six months prior to this study were randomly and equally assigned to a control group (n=10) and a mirror therapy group (n=10). In addition to the existing rehabilitation treatment, the control group received sham therapy and the mirror therapy group received mirror thera… Show more

“…To support and improve quality of life in stroke patients, various motor-assistance devices and new treatment methods have been developed to restore motor functioning in stroke patients (3)(4)(5). In particular, various treatment methods for upper extremity rehabilitation have emerged; these include virtual reality, robot-arm training, mental practice, and mirror therapy (MT) (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11).…”

“…Los aspectos evaluados en los estudios son la recuperación motora 10,11,13---19 ,habilidades funcionales y destreza 11,14,15,18---26 , dolor 14,15,19,20,21 , independencia en actividades de la vida diaria 10,13,14,15,17,19,23 , fuerza 10,15,16 , espasticidad 11,13,15,16,19 , calidad de vida 15,19 y heminegligencia 14,19 . Por otra parte, hay 5 estudios que tratan de registrar cambios estructurales o funcionales en el cerebro 9,10,15,22,27 , en uno de ellos han registrado la excitabilidad cortical mediante electromiografía, aplicando estimulación magnética transcraneal durante la TE 27 , en otros se ha registrado la actividad cerebral tras la terapia 10,15 o durante los ejercicios con resonancia magné-tica (RMN) funcional 9 , y por último se han evaluado cambios en las ondas cerebrales tras el tratamiento con TE 22 .…”

“…Para valorar el aspecto motor de forma analítica, la más utilizada ha sido la escala de Fugl-Meyer (FMA) 10,11,14---19 ; también para este aspecto, aunque más dirigidas a habilidades funcionales y destreza, las más utilizadas han sido la Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) 14,15,19 , Prueba de Función Motora de Wolf (WMFT) 17,20,21 y MFA 11,18,22 . Para el dolor la más utilizada ha sido la Escala Visual Analógica (VAS) 15,20,21 y para la espasticidad la Escala Modificada de Asworth (MAS) 11,13,16,19 .…”
