Virtual Reality-Based Mirror Therapy and FES-Cycling in Stroke Rehabilitation
Comparison of Virtual Reality-Based Mirror Therapy and Functional Electrical Stimulation-Assisted Cycling for Upper Extremity Rehabilitation After Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
This randomized controlled, assessor-blinded study aimed to compare the effects of virtual reality-based mirror therapy (VRBMT) and functional electrical stimulation-assisted cycling (FES-cycling) when combined with conventional rehabilitation on upper extremity recovery in patients with stroke.
Participants with first-ever stroke, unilateral hemiplegia, and upper extremity impairment within six months after stroke onset were randomly assigned to one of three groups: conventional rehabilitation alone, conventional rehabilitation plus VRBMT, or conventional rehabilitation plus FES-cycling.
All participants received a four-week rehabilitation program. Upper extremity motor function, functional independence, use of the affected upper extremity in daily activities, and quality of life were assessed before and after the intervention.

Detailní popis
Stroke frequently results in upper extremity motor impairment, leading to limitations in activities of daily living and reduced quality of life. Although conventional rehabilitation is the standard approach for improving motor recovery after stroke, technology-assisted rehabilitation methods have been developed to enhance neuroplasticity and functional outcomes.
Virtual reality-based mirror therapy provides visual feedback and aims to stimulate motor relearning mechanisms, whereas functional electrical stimulation-assisted cycling combines repetitive movement with electrically induced muscle activation to support motor recovery.
This randomized controlled, assessor-blinded study was designed to compare the additional effects of these two technology-assisted rehabilitation approaches when combined with conventional rehabilitation in patients with post-stroke upper extremity impairment.
Participants were randomly assigned to three parallel treatment groups. Clinical assessments were performed before and after completion of the rehabilitation program by an assessor blinded to group allocation.

Change in Upper Extremity Motor Function Assessed by the Fugl-Meyer Assessment
Časové okno: Baseline and 4 weeks
|
Upper extremity motor function was evaluated using the upper extremity section of the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA-UE).
The FMA-UE assesses motor impairment of the affected upper extremity, with total scores ranging from 0 to 66. Higher scores indicate better upper extremity motor function.
Change from baseline to the post-treatment assessment was calculated as the post-treatment score minus the baseline score.

Change in Functional Independence Assessed by the Functional Independence Measure
Časové okno: Baseline and 4 weeks
|
Functional independence was assessed using the Functional Independence Measure (FIM).
The scale evaluates motor and cognitive aspects of daily functioning.
Total scores range from 18 to 126, with higher scores indicating greater functional independence.

Change in Upper Extremity Use in Daily Activities Assessed by the Motor Activity Index-28
Časové okno: Baseline and 4 weeks
|
Functional use of the affected upper extremity during activities of daily living was assessed using the Motor Activity Index-28 (MAI-28).
Total scores range from 0 to 28, with higher scores indicating better use of the affected upper extremity.
