Objective:To investigate the effects of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on the upper limb dysfunction after stroke.Methods:Forty-two patients suffering from upper limb dysfunction were randomly divided into study groups and control group,21 patients in each group.Both groups were given routine rehabilitation therapy,The patients in the study group were augmented low repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,in the contralateral hemisphere upper limb motor area were given 1Hz rTMS treatment,where Ml areaupper extremity motor function of cerebral motor cortex of contralateral hemisphere is simulated.The scores of Brunnstrom staging,simple Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA),modified Barthel index(MBI)and simple test for evaluating hand function(STEF)before and 4 weeks after the treatment were used to evaluate the upper limb movement function recovery.Results:After treatment for 4 weeks,Respectively,The study group and the control group Brunnstrom staging(4.19±0.75)and(3.29±0.71),the score of simple Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA)(51.10 ± 8.24)and(37.14 ± 7.88),the score of modified Barthel index(MBI)(63.10 ± 6.01)and(49.76 ± 7.49),he score of simple test for evaluating hand function(STEF)(66.62± 7.34)and(54.90±9.63).It was significantly improved in the groups(P<0.05).The score more significantly ni study group than in control group(P<0.05)..Conclusion:On the basis of conventional treatment,LF-rTMS can improve the function of upper limb movement in patients with hemiplegia of cerebral apoplexy,improve the quality of daily life of patients and deserve clinical promotion. |
