The method of Constraint-Induced used in the international practice to restore movement in paretic upper extremities. This technique consists in fixing the hands intact, thus all actions necessary, the patient is forced to make the paretic limb. The method is effective, easy to use, doesn’t to require financial expenses. The authors proposed this method of Constraint-Induced to restore movements of the lower limbs in the patients with the syndrome of the central hemiparesis. Increasing the load on paretic limb was achieved due to movement restrictions in the intact limbs. With this purpose the apparatus of the hip joint with a locking arm was used. Movement in the intact limb becomes impossible and paretic leg became the leader. An objective assessment of the functions walk in the study was carried out by means of laser rangefinder method; clinically function walk was estimated by Dinamic Gait Index. Results: in the group of the patients treated by the Constraint-Induced lower limbs method were obtained reliable differences from the group of the patients who received only traditional methods of rehabilitation. This method can be recommended for application in the course of neuro-rehabilitation syndrome of the central hemiparesis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
