| Research Abstract |
Functional training was carried out by using IVES (Integrated Volitional Control Electrical Stimulation) for upper extremities of stroke patients.IVES training was given to 20 patients for 3 weeks, and the carry over effect of 1 week was examined.IVES electrodes were attached to extensor group. Patients were asked to keep dorsiflexion for 5 seconds and to rest for 5 seconds, and to repeat it for 10 minutes. The patients were also asked to grasp a ball of 7 cm in diameter placed before them, and to repeat it for 10 minutes. The experiment carried out 7 days a week, and continued for 3 weeks. IVES training was performed in occupational therapy training time. The average of wrist joint a-ROM was 17.8 degrees at the beginning, and it was improved to 30.0 degrees after three weeks.One week after training the a-ROM was maintained at 30.3 degrees.The difference between the a-ROM at the beginning and that of after 3 weeks was found to be significant, whereas the difference between the a-ROM after 3 week training and that of one week after training was not significant.We also found that the patients whose a-ROM were not maintained had highly spacitic or high flaccid extremities.
