Abstract

Background AND AIM : The aim of the study was to present a review of studies that investigate the effects of thermal stimulation intervention on sensorimotor recovery in patients with stroke. METHOD: A database of articles published up to the year 2016 were compiled using the following pubmed key words: stroke, thermal stimulation, sensorimotor recovery. References listed in relevant publications were also screened. Studies that satisfied the following selection criteria were included: (1) patients were diagnosed with stroke;(2) effects of thermal stimulation in any form were investigated; (3) the outcome was measured in terms of sensory, motor and functional recovery; and (4) the study was a randomized clinical trial (RCT) or an experimental study. Result: The results were that thermal stimulation in any form is effective in improving the sensorimotor function of both upper as well as lower extremity as thermal stimulation enhances the corticomotor excitability and promotes neuroplasticity. Conclusion: This review of 5 studies provides support for the potential of thermal stimulation on sensorimotor recovery in stroke

热刺激对脑卒中患者上肢和下肢感觉运动恢复的影响:系统综述

背景与目的:本研究的目的是回顾研究热刺激干预对脑卒中患者感觉运动恢复的影响。方法:检索截至2016年发表的论文数据库，检索关键词:脑卒中、热刺激、感觉运动恢复。还筛选了有关出版物中列出的参考文献。纳入符合以下选择标准的研究:(1)诊断为中风的患者;(2)调查任何形式的热刺激的影响;(3)以感觉、运动和功能恢复为评分指标;(4)该研究为随机临床试验(RCT)或实验研究。结果:任何形式的热刺激都能有效改善上肢和下肢的感觉运动功能，因为热刺激能增强皮质运动兴奋性，促进神经可塑性。结论:本文回顾了5项研究，为热刺激对脑卒中感觉运动恢复的潜在作用提供了支持
