Physiotherapy in Patients with Hyperactive

Patients who had a stroke often experience long-term difficulties in walking and everyday activities, like getting up from a chair and climbing stairs. Patients often fall, and this is one of a stroke are potentially serious problems. Patients with worsening mobility or have fallen often referred to physiotherapy by family doctors and other institutions, such as social institutions. However, the benefits of community physiotherapy for patients with long-term mobility problems pascastroke unclear. After research conducted by Green et al., Found that regular community physiotherapy for patients with mobility difficulties a year after the onset of stroke is less effective.

The researchers filter the 359 patients aged over 50 years. Assessment was made at 3, 6, and 9 months in 170 patients who qualify for the given intervention or no intervention. The primary criterion is measured based on the mobility Rivermead mobility index. Secondary measures of road speed, the frequency of falls, daily activity (Barthel index score), social activity (Frenchay activities index), the scale of the hospital anxiety and depression, and emotional stress nurses (28 general health questionnaire).

From the research found that there were changes in the Rivermead mobility index score significantly between the intervention group with controls at 3 months (p = 0.018), but only with the value of 1 point (95%, interval konfidens 0.1), with interpolation values 0 , 55 (0,08-1,04). Road speed of 2.6 m / min (0,30-4,95) higher in the intervention group at 3 months. Both these improvements have not settled on the observation that 6 and 9 months. Intervention has no impact on daily activities, social activities, depression, and frequency of patient falls, or the emotional stress nurses.
