Recovery of lower extremity (LE) function in chronic stroke patients is considered a barrier to community reintegration. An adequate training program is required to improve neural and functional performance of the affected LE in chronic stroke patients. The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of somatosensory rehabilitation on neural and functional recovery of LE in stroke patients. Thirty male and female patients were recruited and randomized to equal groups: control group (GI) and intervention group (GII). All patients were matched for age, duration of stroke, and degree of motor impairment of the affected LE. Both groups received standard program of physical therapy in addition to somatosensory rehabilitation for GII. The duration of treatment for both groups was eight consecutive weeks. Outcome measures used were Functional Independent Measure (FIM) and Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG), obtained pre- and post-treatment. A significant improvement was found in the FIM scores of the intervention group (GII), as compared to the control group (GI) (p < 0.001). Additionally, QEEG scores improved within the intervention group post-treatment. QEEG scores did not improve within the control group post-treatment, except for “Cz-AR”, compared to pretreatment, with no significant difference between groups. Adding somatosensory training to standard physical therapy program results in better improvement of neuromuscular control of LE function in chronic stroke patients.

Abstract © 2018 Institute of Psychiatry, Ain Shams University Copyright r 2018 Institute of Psychiatry, Ain Shams University. Unauthorized reproduction of this article is prohibited. Background Optimizing the management of stroke is a national priority. In Egypt, the mean crude prevalence rate of stroke is 721.6/100,000 1of which almost 30 percent suffer from post stroke spasticity. Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS) is a new faster modality of the conventional rTMS that is used to improve functional recovery after stroke. Objective This work was carried out to assess the effects of peripheral TBS in improving the functional recovery of the lower limb after stroke. Patients and methods A case–control study was conducted to include 27 patients with chronic stroke, who were selected from the attendants of the neurology outpatient clinic in Ain Shams University Hospital, along with 19 participants of age-matched and sex-matched stroke patients as a control group. Case and control groups were subjected to neurological and functional assessment using gait assessment rating scale (GARS) at baseline and after the sessions. An informed written consent was taken from patients included in the study. All patients received 6 sessions of peripheral TBS on affected lower limb. Results There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in the improvement of functional scale (GARS). Conclusion Peripheral TBS improves gait and functional recovery in chronic stroke patients.
