Effective Analysis of Multichannel Functional Electrical Stimulation plus Early Rehabilitation Training for Hemiplegic Patients after Stroke

The research paper aims to investigate the value of multichannel functional electrical stimulation (FES) plus early rehabilitation training for hemiplegic patients after stroke attacks and assesses the impact of the combined therapy on walking capacity and daily life activities of patients.Totally, 100 hemiplegic patients after stroke treated in No. 215 Hospital of Shaanxi Nuclear Industry from March 2019 to July 2020 were recruited and randomized into the control group and study group, with 50 cases in each group. The control group received early rehabilitation training, and the study group received multiple channel FES plus early rehabilitation. The rehabilitation effective rate, the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Barthel index (BI), the Quality of Life index (QLI), Mental Status Scale in Nonpsychiatric Settings (MSSNS), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating depression scale (SDS), and the incidence of adverse response were evaluated.The study group patients had higher scores in FMA, BBS, BI, and QLI than the control group. Multiple channel FES plus early rehabilitation adopted in the study group resulted in a higher rehabilitation efficacy and a longer walking duration at 1, 2, and 4 weeks after the treatment. NIHSS score, MSSNS score, SAS score, SDS score, and incidence rate of adverse response in the study group were significantly lower compared to those of the control group.Multichannel FES plus early rehabilitation training effectively enhances the rehabilitation of patients after stroke attacks.
