Community rehabilitation therapy on patients with stroke induced hemiplegia

Objective:To explore the importance of community rehabilitation therapy on patients with stroke induced hemiplegia.Methods:Divide 37 patients with stroke induced hemiplegia into two groups—rehabilitation group and control group.We took community rehabilitation therapy on the 17 patients in rehabilitation group,but not on the 20 patients in control group.The Fugl Meyer scale and Barthel index were employed for the assessment of the functional status.Results:In rehabilitation group,the motor function and ADL were obviously improved after treatment.Compared with control group the scores were significantly higher(P 0.01). Conclusion :If they don't have the condition to receive treatment in the rehabilitation center ,the patients with stroke induced hemiplegia should receive community rehabilitation key therapy on their own places.
