PENGARUH CONSTRAINT INDUCED MOVEMENT THERAPY TERHADAP KEMAMPUAN KOORDINASI EKSTREMITAS ATAS PASCA STROKE
Abstract: Post-stroke symptom
commonly occured as result of brain impairment such as paralysis on one side of
the body, decrease or loss of taste, impaired balance and coordination
problems. Coordination disorder usually found in recovery stage, both in upper
and lower extremities. Recovery of upper extremities usually slower than lower extremities,
so patients can not use their upper extremities normally. The purpose of this
study was to determine the effect of Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT)
on upper extremities coordination ability of post-stroke patients. Design of
this study was single-case research method with ABA design, which were A1:
initial baseline, B: tretment, A2: baseline end. Result of this research showed
that there was significant improvement of upper extremities ability on patients
who got CIMT, meanwhile there was not any significant improvement of upper
extremities ability on control patients.
