Abstract: 

Study evaluated and summarized evidence about trunk muscle electromyographic (EMG) activity after stroke during activities of daily living (ADL) and with diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Medline Complete, CINAHL and Health Sources: Nursing Academic Edition databases were searched for studies written in English, published after 1989, that included these search terms: stroke, muscle activity, and trunk including abdominal or back muscles. Systematic reviews, single case studies, dissertations, or letters to the editor were excluded. The electronic search yielded 188 articles and a hand search found three. Title and abstract screening yielded 102 articles for full-text screening. Ultimately, 45 articles were included and classified as ADL, therapeutic interventions, or device categories. Information extracted related to stroke severity, time since onset, specific muscles and EMG analysis technique, and study limitations. Articles were classified as observational, intervention, or device related. Trunk muscle recruitment during function and movement demonstrated significant differences in trunk EMG recruitment timing, magnitude, and symmetry after stroke when compared with healthy participants. Individuals with stroke demonstrated significant differences when comparing paretic to non-paretic side trunk EMG measures. Intervention studies showed some effect on improving trunk muscle activation, but they had small sample sizes and methodological issues. Findings indicate that trunk muscle activation after stroke can be monitored with EMG during rehabilitation programs which challenge functional recovery.
