REHABILITATION PROGRAMMES OF CARE IN STROKE SURVIVORS WITH HEMIPARETIC SHOULDER AND HEMIPARETIC HAND

NO, NO, NO! Papers on 'care' should never be allowed at stroke conferences. It should be Rehabilitation programs of recovery! I'd fire the conference organizers.

Abstract

Stroke is considered worldwide as a socially important disease, with important morbidity, high
mortality, and significant level of disability of stroke survivors. Motor weakness and reduced
autonomy in everyday life remain the principal problems of post-stroke patients in departments of
Physical and rehabilitation medicine (PRM).
Hemiplegic shoulder and hemiplegic hand are frequent complications.
We formulate algorithms for the PRM clinical practice, including detailed functional assessment and rehabilitation programs of care of stroke survivors with these problems. The complex programs in hemiplegic shoulder include position therapy, functional electrostimulations of the deltoid muscle, cryotherapy, proprioceptive neuro-muscular facilitation, analytic exercises. The program in hemiplegic hand contain thermotherapy, laser, electrical stimulations of the antagonists of the spastic muscles, grasp and grip training, occupational therapy.
Rehabilitation programmes of care reduce pain, stimulate functional recovery, ameliorate
autonomy of stroke survivors in activities of daily living.
