6 Stages of โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง Recovery and the Targeted Training for Each stage - โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง Center

Once โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง strikes, 90% of survivors with อัมพาตครึ่งซีก will have upper limb dysfunction and lose self-care ability. Most patients know that early การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ treatment can restore the motor function of limbs as soon as possible; however, it is not clear to patients what process will they go through and what exercise is effective in each stage. So, to better understand the การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ process, let's start with the well-known Brunnstrom stages of โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง recovery.

Developed by Swedish physical therapist Signe Brunnstrom in the 1960s, Brunnstrom stages demonstrate how the motor function is restored and the brain reorganized after โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง. Most physical therapists and การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ professionals use Brunnstrom approach as a theoretical basis for treatment and a method to evaluate a patient's recovery. It follows six stages of sequential motor recovery after โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง.

Stage 1: Flaccidity

There is a period of flaccidity immediately following a โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง. During this stage, the patient is completely unable to move spontaneously due to nerve damage. The intervention is needed to prevent unused muscles from atrophying.

What training can do in this stage

การฝึกแบบพาสซีฟthat moves patient's affected hands and arms with the help of therapists is an important exercise in this stage. Through การฝึกแบบพาสซีฟ, the signals of movement are sent to the brain from muscles and skin, activating the motor nerves of the brain.

Stage 2: ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง appears

Recovery begins with developing ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง. Muscles may begin to tighten reflexively and have difficulty relaxing. It is still difficult for the patient to do the voluntary movement.

What training can do in this stage

Even though it is more difficult to move because of ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง, การฝึกแบบพาสซีฟ is still crucial for patients in this stage. To avoid muscle stiffness affecting future activities, it is necessary to move the joints through slow การฝึกแบบพาสซีฟ.

Stage 3: Increased ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง

In the third stage, the ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง reaches its peak. Patients experience more discomfort and pain. At the same time, muscle synergies and weak voluntary movements begin to appear. If patients can use their synergies, they can complete some simple activities.

What training can do in this stage

In addition to continuing การฝึกแบบพาสซีฟ, การฝึกแบบแอ็กทีฟ can also be included appropriately. Patients can try to do some daily activities with the assistance of therapists and medical devices. The more signals sent from patient's brain, the stronger patient's muscles become. However, it is important to note that highly stressful activities should be avoided at this stage because of the increase in ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง.

Stage 4: Decreased ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง

The ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง begins to decline. The patient's brain is becoming more and more adept at controlling muscles and using muscle coordination.

What training can do in this stage

During this stage, patients should focus on training the brain to control muscles. Since patients can act normal and control movements on a limited basis, patients can do different training to stimulate different areas of the brain. And, repeat these exercises to accelerate central nervous reshaping.

Stage 5: Complex movement combination

ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง continues to decrease, and there is a greater ability for patients to move freely from the synergy pattern. The patient is able to perform more complex movements.

What training can do in this stage

From การฝึกแบบพาสซีฟ to การฝึกแบบแอ็กทีฟ, it is the time to strengthen muscles. Add small weights to your exercises to build muscle endurance.

Stage 6: ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง Disappears and coordination reappears

When you are in this stage, it means that your motor control is almost recovered and the ภาวะกล้ามเนื้อหดเกร็ง completely disappears. You can practice coordination for more difficult activities.

What training can do in this stage

Keep strengthening patients' muscles with resistance training and add more complex exercises such as playing games, shuffling cards, etc. to improve coordination.

This six-stage recovery process from Signe Brunnstrom is a popular guide for both the therapist and patients. It is effective in clinical settings and can significantly enhance voluntary muscle movement after โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง. Based on the Brunnstrom stages, Syrebo hand การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ system for the clinic is innovated to help patients to relearn and recover hand motor functions via a series of passive and active exercises. It has 6 training modes covering all stages of hand การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ.

During Brunnstrom stages 1 and 2, therapists can use การฝึกแบบพาสซีฟ mode to help โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง patients do flexion and extension exercises to prevent muscle atrophy. In the third stage, the assistance training mode can capture the patient's weak active movement and assist the patient in completing the active movement. For critical stages 4 and 5, we specially incorporated innovative mirror training and task-oriented training to further enhance patients' learning process and re-educate patients to use hands during the activities of daily living. To improve hand coordination and strength, the Syrebo hand การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ system also provides patients with resistance training and active game training in the final stage.

Syrebo hand การฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพ system has already been applied in thousands of hospitals, and its clinical effect is recognized by lots of institutions. It is a good helper for therapists, greatly improving the efficiency of treatment. Contact us now to learn more about it: [email protected]
