USE OF 3D IMOOVE STIMULATION IN HEMIPARETIC PATIENTS WITH LOWER LIMB INSTABILITY

Summary/Abstract: Introduction: Use of 3D Imo stimulation in hemiparetic patients with lower limb instability. We dealt with the issue in which we specify stroke with a narrower focus on ischemic stroke, the main causes of its occurrence but also the complications associated with it. Objective: The aim of the work was to investigate the effects of exercise on a special balance platform Imoove mini in hemiparetic patients affected by ischemic stroke in the basin and. cerebri media in which lower limb instability has been demonstrated. Methodology: The partial objectives include the evaluation of the change in the load of the paretic lower limb in twenty tested patients using the ALFA stabilometric platform and the assessment of dynamic balance using the Timed Up and Go test. Results: Evaluation of performed tests and assessment of statistical significance. The results of the clinical study suggest an improvement in the dynamic stability of the test kit, an improvement in the mean load of the paretic lower limb and an increase in the dominant load in patients with right-sided hemiparesis. The results of the research do not confirm such an improvement in patients with left-sided lower limb paresis as in patients with right-sided paresis. Conclusion: Based on the results of a clinical study, we concluded that the exercise unit using Imoove has positive effects on increasing the load of the paretic lower limb in patients after overcoming ischemic CMP in the chronic stage of the disease. The proof is the reduction of the time interface in the final testing of the TUG test and thus the increase of the dynamic balance of the examined patients.
