Abstract Background Many therapeutic interventions are performed by physiotherapists to improve upper extremity function and/or activities of daily living (ADL) in stroke patients. Mirror therapy (MT) is a simple technique that can be self-administered by the patients with intact cognition following patient education by a skilled physiotherapist. However, the effectiveness of self-administered MT in post-stroke patients in upper extremity function remains unclear. Therefore, the objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of MT in improving upper extremity function and recovery in acute stroke patients. Methods This study is a single-center, prospective, randomized, open-label, controlled trial with blinded outcome evaluation (PROBE design), in which a total of 36 eligible acute stroke patients will be randomly assigned to control (n=18) and experimental group (n=18). Participants in the control group will receive regular rehabilitation interventions whereas participants in the experimental group will receive MT education in addition to their regular interventions for 4 weeks. Study outcome The primary outcome measure will be upper extremity function that will be measured using the Fugl-Meyer Assessment scale and the Wolf Motor Function Test. The secondary outcome measure will be behaviors related to ADL as estimated using the Modified Barthel Index. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline and at 4 weeks post-rehabilitation intervention/MT. Results A two-way repeated analysis of variance (ANOVA) with time and group effects will be used to analyze between-group differences. The level of significance will be set at P < 0.05. Conclusion The results of the study will provide critical information to include self-administered MT as an adjuvant to regular interventions and may facilitate recovery of the upper extremity function of stroke patients.

Stroke is a common and disabling global health-care problem, which is the third most common cause of death and one of the main causes of acquired adult disability in many countries. Rehabilitation interventions are a major component of patient care. In the last few years, brain stimulation, mirror therapy, action observation, or mental practice with motor imagery has emerged as interesting options as add-on interventions to standard physical therapies. The neural bases for poststroke recovery rely on the concept of plasticity, namely, the ability of central nervous system cells to modify their structure and function in response to external stimuli. In this review, we will discuss recent noninvasive strategies employed to enhance functional recovery in stroke patients and we will provide an overview of neural plastic events associated with rehabilitation in preclinical models of stroke.

Purpose: This study investigated the effects of modified mirror therapy and taping therapy for providing feedback on upper extremity function, activity, and daily activities of stroke patients. Methods: This study was conducted with 20 stroke patients and randomly assigned 10 subjects to the experimental group and 10 to the control group. In the experimental group, after proprioceptive neuromuscular stimulation treatment, the mirror therapy program was implemented. In the control group, upper extremity taping was performed before proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation treatment. In this study, a prior evaluation using JTT, FIM, and MAL was performed before intervention to evaluate the patient's function and daily life behavior. Post-tests were performed after the last treatment. Results: In the paired-sample T-test used for within-group comparison of JTTs, FIM, and MAL, there was a significant difference between pre- and post-test for all groups. But there was no statistically significant difference between experimental group 1 and experimental group 2 in an independent t-test conducted to compare the effect sizes of treatments. Conclusion: In other words, by applying mirror therapy and taping therapy that can increase proprioceptive sensation and feedback information in stroke patients, upper extremity function and daily activities can be increased.

Global Health Problem

Background: Stroke, global health problem and second cause of death with fourth leading cause of disability worldwide. Mirror therapy is a new approach in rehabilitation used in different neurological disorders including stroke. In mirror therapy, a mirror is placed beside the unaffected limb, blocking the view of the affected limb. This creates the illusion that both limbs are functioning properly. Objectives: The objective of the study was to assess the effectiveness of mirror therapy on upper extremity motor functions and activity of daily living in stroke patients. Method: A quasi-experimental one group pre-test post-test design used by convenient sampling assign 35-stroke patients who met the inclusion criteria. The intervention administered in the morning for a week and a self-structured tool (UEMFs assessment scale) for Upper extremity motor functions and ADL Independence scale for activity of daily living. Data were collected every day in a week. Results: The result showed that UEMFs score was significant after intervention (p<0.001), ADL score was significant (p<0.001). There was significant improvement from pre to post test was found in UEMFs status among stroke patents (p=0.015). The significant improvement in ADL status among stroke patients. (p=0.003). The significant correlation was found between UEMFs (r=0.737, p<0.001) and ADL (r=0.857, p<0.001). Conclusion: The study concluded that Mirror therapy was an effective, non-pharmacological measure for improving upper extremity motor functions and ADL among stroke patients.

Incidence And Mortality

AbstractStroke is a serious health problem with high incidence and mortality, and causes disability in patients. It causes complex problems, one of which is motor disorders, especially the upper extremities. Impaired motor function causes functional limitations and disabilities in stroke patients. Mirror Therapy is a new technique that is simple and able to improve upper extremity function with the concept of visual illusion. This study aimed to describe of the motoric improvement of the upper extremities after the implementation of Mirror Therapy in post-stroke patients. This study was a literature review by searching for articles from databases such as PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. The articles were chosen based on several inclusion and exclusion criteria as well as a feasibility test. The number of articles that was appropriate and reviewed was five. The results of review of the five articles showed that Mirror Therapy was proven to be able to improve the motoric skills of post-stroke patients with an average difference of 13.68 using the Fugl Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) measuring instrument. The most common type of stroke was ischemic stroke (64.6%), and it was more common in males (72.3%) with an average age of 52.84 years. Mirror Therapy could improve the upper extremity motor skills in post-stroke patients. This study is expected to be the basis of action in performing physiotherapy management, especially in improving upper extremity motor skills in post-stroke patients with Mirror Therapy interventions.Keywords : Mirror skills; Motor Therapy; Post stroke AbstrakStroke merupakan masalah kesehatan yang penting dengan kejadian dan kematian tinggi dan menyebabkan kecacatan pada penderita.
