Hand function is an important link to ADL, many activities depends on hands. Splint is a common tool in hand therapy, but there is limited use on stroke patients to enhance hand function, and few literatures on it. Purpose: This study utilized long opponens splint as a intervention tool to investigate whether this splint improve the function of upper extremity, hand and ADL on stroke patients. Methods: Twenty-six subjects between 40 to 80 years old with stroke were selected and divided into the splint group (experiment group: 13 subjects) and non-splint group (control group: 13 subjects). Both groups received the same hand function training activities at the frequency of 30 minutes per session and 2 sessions per week in the period of 8 weeks. Subjects were evaluated their function of the upper extremity, hand and ADL by five assessment tools before and after 4 weeks training and after 8 weeks training. Results: The improvement is better in experiment group compared with control group after 8 weeks intervention of splint. In experiment group, the function of upper extremity, hand and ADL were significantly improved after training. Conclusion: The long opponens splint could improve the function of upper extremity, hand and ADL effectively, It has a great potential to be utilized as a hand function rehabilitation tool on stroke patients. It could expend the application range of splint on stroke patients, and help stroke patients regaining normal life as soon as possible. Min-Sheng Chen 陳敏生 2010 學位論文 ; thesis 96 zh-TW |
