| Objective To study the effect of motor imaginary therapy on the ability of daily life of stroke patients.Methods40stroke patients were randomly divided into experiment group(n=20)and control group(n=20). The two groups received routine rehabilitation training, the experiment group at the same time used the given ADL motor imagery training, and the control group used the background music therapy. They were assessed with NIHSS, Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA), Modified Barthel index(MBI) before and after treatment.Results Before treatment, the experiment group and the control group NIHSS score, FMA score, MBI score difference was no statistical significant (P>0.05). Two weeks after treatment:the experiment group NIHSS score decreased with statistical difference (P<0.05), The scores after treatment compared with the control group showed significant difference; FMA,MBI score:the experiment group compared with those before treatment improved significantly (P<0.05), after the treatment of the experiment group and the control group score was statistically difference.4weeks after the treatment, the experiment group NIHSS score decreased significantly, compared with the control group had statistical significance. The experiment group FMA, MBI score was significantly improved, comparison between groups the experiment group is obviously higher than the control group with statistical significance (P<0.05).Conclusion Motor imagery therapy combined with routine rehabilitation training can improve the motor function of stroke patients and the ability of daily life. Motor imagery therapy is easy to grasp, to facilitate more early initiation of active participation, to mobilize the patient enthusiasm, and to improve the recovery rate, reducing the average hospitalization days and the patient and family’s burden. |
