Abstract AR
النتائج : صمم هذا البحث لتقييم تأهيل حالات عدم الإتزان لمرضى الفالج و ذلك بعد استطاعتهم للمشي عن طريق برنامج تأهيل بجهاز الاتزان الحركي المبرمج مسبقا بالكومبيوتر.
و قياس مدى الاستجابة لذلك البرنامج. الطريقة : خضع واحد و ثلاثون مريضا و تسعة عشر فردا سليما كمجموعة ضابطة للبرنامج، تم إخضاع المرضى لبرنامج تأهيل بجهاز الاتزان جلسة واحدة أسبوعيا و ثلاث جلسات أخرى أسبوعيا على تمرينات الإتزان العادية.
و ذلك لمدة ثلاثة أشهر.
كما تم قياس معامل برج للإتزان قبل و بعد البرنامج، و قد وجد تقدم ملحوظ للمرضى بعد البرنامج التأهيلي. النتائج : و قد خلص البحث بإمكانية استخدام جهاز الاتزان الحركي المبرمج بالكومبيوتر لقياس و تأهيل حالات عدم الإتزان لمرضى الشلل النصفي "الفالج".
Abstract EN
Objective : Study the Berg Balance Scale as a measure of balance functional impairment as well as effects of visual feedback balance training on static and dynamic standing balance using Computerized Dynamic Petrography (CDP), before and after a rehabilitation program in hemiplegic patients.
Methodology : Thirty-one hemiplegic ambulatory stroke patients admitted to the Balance Neurocom Clinic (Kuwait) and 19 age-matched apparently healthy controls were subjected to this study.
All patients and controls were evaluated clinically with brief neurological examination and a study of postural stability (PS) and balance using the Berg Balance Scale and CDP.
All patients received a rehabilitation training program including visual biofeedback training using CDP once weekly in addition to conventional physical therapy (three times / weekly) for 3 months.
All patients and controls were re-evaluated 3 months after the rehabilitation training program.
Results : A significant increase in the Berge Balance Scale was observed after as compared to results before treatment in stroke patients (p < 0.05).
Moreover, a highly significant increase was found for composite equilibrium score (ES) after as compared to results before treatment in stroke patients (p < 0.001).
Also, a significant increase in static & dynamic balance functions was observed after treatment as compared with results before rehabilitation of stroke patients (p < 0.05).
Conclusion : Improvement in static and dynamic equilibrium found after the training program reflects an increase in muscle strength of the paretic side to improve the posture control system in stroke patients.
Also, dynamic posturography is a valuable training tool in the assessment of improvement of the equilibrium performance in those patients.
