Upper Limb Intensive Therapies in Babies With Unilateral Cerebral Palsy.

Infantile HemiplegiaUpper Extremity Paresis3 more

mCIMT and BIT are therapies applied in children with hemiplegia which have a great evidence, but not in a early age. This research has the objective to know the effects of this therapies in infants diagnosed of infantile hemiplegia from 9 to 18 months applying 50 hours of dose for both interventions during 10 weeks, executing them at home by familes.

Evaluation of Walking After Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) Inhibitory 1Hz in...

Hemiplegia

Recovery of neurological deficits after stroke results from a reorganization of cortical activities, possibly through brain plasticity. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS-MagproR30) produces changes in cortical excitability, generates phenomena of neuroplasticity. Its use to improve function after stroke, particularly of the upper limb, was validated. The investigators propose to evaluate in a prospective pilot against placebo, the benefit of rTMS at low frequency (1Hz) on the unaffected hemisphere in the short and medium term, especially on walking function and spasticity in patients with sequelae of cerebral infarction in the MCA territory with gait disturbance and motor weakness of the upper limb.

HemiplegiaGait2 more

Limited ankle dorsiflexion adversely affects the weight bearing capacity, increases the knee extensor moment and causes insufficient maneuvers to change the center of gravity of the body in patients with hemiplegia. While biomechanical studies emphasized the importance of proximal tibiofibular joint and distal tibiofibular joint manipulations for ankle dorsiflexion, no studies examining the effect of corrective manipulation techniques applied to these two joints on foot posture, range of motion and balance were observed.

The Effect of a Self-rehabilitation Program in Addition to Usual Treatment for Spasticity on Impairment...

Spastic Hemiparesis

The addition of a self-rehabilitation program to repeated Botulinum Toxin Injections (BTI) and usual physiotherapy should increase the proportion of patients who attain their Primary Treatment Goal (impairments and function) more than usual care (involving repeated Botulinum Toxin Injections and conventional physiotherapy), in post stroke out-patients with spasticity.

HEMITOX : Effect of Botulinum Toxin Injections on Motor and Functional Ability of Upper Limb in...

Hemiplegia

Botulinum toxin produced beneficial effects in spasticity in the hemiplegic upper limb. This study will test if botulinum toxin injections at earlier phases (<or = 3 months) in spasticity improve functional and motor tests compared with late injections (>or = 6 months).

HemiplegiaSpastic

The aim of the study is to describe the efficacy of a new approach to the subscapularis muscle under US guidance for the injection of botulinum toxin in patients that underwent a stroke suffering from hemiplegic shoulder pain. Pain and spastic shoulder are common findings in hemiplegic patients following a stroke. The pain interferes with rehabilitation prolonging hospitalization and is related with decreased quality of life. There is a close relationship between spasticity of the subscapularis muscle and pain The patients show a clinical picture of adduction and internal rotation of the shoulder, elbow and wrist and fingers flexion with a limited external rotation of the shoulder. The investigators suggest that paralyzing the subscapularis muscle with botulinum toxin may alleviate pain in the hemiplegic shoulder. Best produced when injected in a specific area of the muscle where a higher concentration of motor points exists.
