Use of Rhythmic Auditory Cueing During Bilateral Training of the Upper Extremities in Stroke Patients

Detaillierte Beschreibung
Arm and hand movement problems are major contributors to disability in patients after stroke. In fact, only 5% of adults regain full arm function after stroke, and 20% regain no functional use. Hence, alternative strategies are needed to reduce the long-term disability and functional impairment from upper limb hemiparesis.
To solve problems concerning upper limb dysfunction related to stroke, various treatment methods have been used in several previous studies. Rhythmic auditory stimulation has been reported as an effective intervention for improving movement in the affected extremities of stroke patients.
To the best of our knowledge, no mentioned previous studies evaluating the effect of rhythmic auditory cueing with bilateral arm training using functional exercises on upper extremity impairment in patients with stroke in Egypt are reported. So, this study aims to determine the effect of rhythmic auditory cueing with bilateral arm training on upper limb functions in patients with stroke.

Experimental: Rhythmic Auditory Cueing
Group (B): Patients in this group will receive the same designed physical therapy program given to the control group in addition to auditory cueing during bilateral arm training using the metronome.
|
Patients will perform the same movement sequence in time with the metronome beat. The frequency of the rhythmic auditory stimulation will be matched to the participant"s preferred movement speed, which will be assessed prior to the start of the trial, and participants typically started moving after they had heard the metronome beat two to three times. Participants will be given sufficient practice trials to ensure full understanding before the actual recording of data, and will be given 3-minutes break between trials. On the 3rd and 5th week, the rhythm frequency was increased by 5%.
Training will consist of 20 minutes of bilateral arm training In each session, patients will be seated comfortably at a table in the following limb positions: ankles in neutral dorsiflexion, knees and hips placed at 90°, shoulders in 0° flexion, elbows in 60° flexion, and wrists in neutral position of flexion/extension
Scapular mobilization.
Thoracic spine mobilization.
Mechanical assisted (active and passive) exercises.
Therapeutic positioning as weight bearing on the paretic arm.
Opening and closing closed fist.
Strengthening exercise.
Stretching of spastic muscles.

Assessment via using Upper Extremity Motor Performance scale.
This scale has been shown to be valid and reliable, and it correlates well with inter joint upper extremity coordination.
It has a maximum score of 66
