  • Investigation of brain computer interface combined with wrist passive motion training in chronic stroke patients

    ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of motor imagery based brain computer interface with wrist passive movement in chronic stroke patients with wrist extension impairment.MethodsFifteen chronic stroke patients with a mean age of (47.60±14.66) years were recruited from March 2017 to June 2018. At baseline, motor imagery ability was assessed first. Then motor imagery based brain computer interface with wrist passive movement was given as an intervention. Both range of motion of paretic wrist and Barthel index was assessed before and after the intervention.ResultsAmong the 15 chronic stroke patients admitted in the study, 12 finished the whole therapy, and 3 failed to pass the initial assessment. After the therapy, the 12 participants who completed the whole sessions of the treatment and follow up had improved ability of control electroencephalogram, in whom 9 regained the ability to actively extend the affected wrist, and the other 3 failed to actively extend their wrist (the rate of active extending wrist was 75%). The activity of daily life of all the participants did not change significantly before and after intervention, and no discomfort was found after daily treatment.ConclusionIn chronic stroke patients with wrist extension impairment, motor imagery based brain computer interface with wrist passive movement training is feasible and effective.

  • Clinical characteristics during rehabilitation period of youth stroke patients

    ObjectiveTo explore the differences of rehabilitation clinical characteristics between youth stroke patients and middle and old age stroke patients, to provide references for secondary prevention and personalized rehabilitation treatment for youth stroke.MethodsFrom May 2016 to October 2019, stroke inpatient in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of Huashan Hospital of Fudan University were included. Patients were divided into youth group and middle and old age group according to their age. The clinical characteristics of the two groups during the rehabilitation period were analyzed.ResultsA total of 271 patients were included, including 70 in the youth group and 201 in the middle and old age group. The proportion of patients with hypertension (85.07% vs. 71.43%), diabetes (34.83% vs. 17.14%) and infection (20.90% vs. 8.57%) in the middle and old age group were higher than those in the youth group (P<0.05). The proportion of patients with hemorrhagic stroke (71.43% vs. 32.84%), history of stroke surgery (54.29% vs. 13.43%), epilepsy secondary to stroke (31.43% vs. 4.48%) and overweight/obesity (57.14% vs. 42.79%) in the youth group were higher than those in the middle and old age group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the proportion of gender, cognitive impairment, and thinness between the two groups (P>0.05). Among patients whose disease course was within 1 month at the time of admission, there was no significant difference in Brunnstrom stage of upper limbs-hands-lower limbs between the two groups (P>0.05). The scores of Berg Balance Scale (Z=−2.493, P=0.013) and Barthel Index (Z=−2.527, P=0.012) in the youth group were higher than those in the middle and old age group. Among patients whose disease course was between 1 month and 3 months at the time of admission, there was no significant difference in Brunnstrom stage of upper limbs-hands-lower limbs and Barthel Index between the two groups (P>0.05). The scores of Berg Balance Scale in the youth group were higher than those in the middle and old age group (Z=−2.004, P=0.045). Among patients whose disease course was more than 3 months at the time of admission, there was no significant difference in the scores of Berg Balance Scale, Barthel Index, and Brunnstrom stage of upper limbs-hands-lower limbs between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionsFor youth stroke patients, weight control is very important, and it is necessary to pay close attention to whether there are seizures. In the case of patients with stable vital signs in the early stage of the disease, more active rehabilitation treatment can be given.
