Abstract

Background: Mirror therapy (MT) has been used as a treatment for various neurological disorders. Recent application of electroencephalogram (EEG) to the MT study allows researchers to gain insight into the changes in brain activity during the therapy.

Objective: This scoping review is aimed at mapping existing evidence and identifying knowledge gaps about the effects of MT on upper limb recovery and its application for individuals with chronic stroke.

Methods and materials: A scoping review through a systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Scopus databases. Twenty articles published between 2010 and 2020 met the inclusion criteria. The efficacy of MT on upper limb recovery and brain activity during MT were discussed according to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF).

Results: A majority of the studies indicated positive effects of MT on upper limb recovery from the body structure/functional domain. All studies used EEG to indicate brain activation during MT.

Conclusion: MT is a promising intervention for improving upper limb function for individuals with chronic stroke. This review also highlights the need to incorporate EEG into the MT study to capture brain activity and understand the mechanism underlying the therapy.

脑卒中镜像治疗康复:上肢恢复和脑活动的范围综述。

背景:镜像疗法(MT)已被用于治疗各种神经系统疾病。最近脑电图(EEG)在MT研究中的应用使研究人员能够深入了解治疗期间大脑活动的变化。目的:本综述旨在对MT对上肢康复的影响及其在慢性脑卒中患者中的应用的现有证据进行梳理和识别知识空白。方法和材料:使用PubMed、CINAHL、PsycINFO和Scopus数据库进行系统文献检索，进行范围综述。2010年至2020年间发表的20篇文章符合纳入标准。根据国际功能、残疾和健康分类(ICF)，讨论了MT对上肢恢复和脑活动的影响。结果:大多数研究表明，MT对上肢从身体结构/功能领域的恢复有积极作用。所有的研究都使用脑电图来显示脑活动。结论:脑活动治疗是一种有希望改善慢性脑卒中患者上肢功能的干预措施。这篇综述还强调了将脑电图纳入脑电研究以捕捉大脑活动和了解治疗机制的必要性。
