Abstract: 

 The objective of this literature review was to determine the effect of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) in stroke patients. Stroke can be defined as damage caused by hemodynamic and coagulation disorders, although it does not present detectable changes in arteries or veins of great medical relevance. In view of this, PNF is defined as a concept of promoting or accelerating the neuromuscular mechanism through stimuli from sensitive receptors. This review was made operational through six steps which are closely interconnected: elaboration of the guiding question, literature search, data collection, critical analysis of the included studies, discussion of the results, and presentation of the review. The results presented a total of 4 studies from different countries, two randomized controlled, one randomized, and one non-randomized. The relevance of kinesiotherapy using FNP in the treatment of sequelae generated by the stroke was concluded not only as an alternative way of intervention, but also as a determining factor in reducing the length of stay of patients in health services, and consequently reducing costs in the system, as well as increasing the quality of life of patients.
