Abstract

Objectives: Evaluation on the results of combined trearment of Integrated volitional control electrical stimulation (IVES) in patients with ischemic stroke. Subject and­­­ methods: Prospective, clinical trial, control intervention study on 60 patients with ischemic stroke with reduced function of the paralyzed upper limb are being treated at the Rehabilitation Department of Hanoi Rehabilitation Hospital. Results: Regarding the characteristics of the study subjects, the mean age was 63,8 ± 14,1, the group of patients aged >65 years accounts for the majority (56.7%). The Fulg – Meyer Assessment upper limb increased from 36,4 ± 11,8 to 43,8 ± 11,4 after 2 weeks and increased to   47 ± 10,9 after 4 weeks. The Action Research Arm Test increased from 26,5 ± 15,2 to 33,5 ± 13,7 after 2 weeks and increased to 37 ± 13,9 after 4 weeks. Conclusion: Combined treatment of integrated volitional control electrical stimulation (IVES) significantly improves upper limb mobility in patients with ischemic stroke.
