Stroke And Paralysis

Stroke And Paralysis

Types of Stroke:

Ischemic Stroke: Caused by a blockage in a blood vessel supplying the brain.
Hemorrhagic Stroke:Caused by bleeding in the brain

Effects Of Mobality:

Hemiplegia: : Total paralysis on one side of the body.
Hemiparesis: Weakness on one side of the body.

Functional Impairments:

Difficulty Walking: : Challenges with balance and co-ordination.
Impaired Arm Function: Difficulty with reaching, grasping, and fine motor skills.
Muscle Stiffness: Increased muscle tone (spasticity) in affected limbs.

Physiotherapy Management:

Early Mobilization:

Bed Mobility Exercises: : Gentle exercises to improve turning and rolling in bed.
Sitting Balance Activities: Promoting stability in a seated position.

Range of Motion Exercises:

Passive Range of Motion (PROM): : Gentle movements of the affected limbs to maintain joint flexibility.
Active-Assisted Range of Motion (AAROM): Encouraging the individual to participate in moving their limbs with assistance.

Strengthening Exercises:

Isometric Exercises: : Muscle contractions without joint movement to maintain strength.
Progressive Resistance Training: Gradual introduction of resistance for muscle strengthening.

Balance and Co-ordination Training:

Weight-Shifting Exercises: : Promoting weight-bearing on the affected side.
Dynamic Balance Activities: Activities that challenge balance and co-ordination.

Gait Training:

Supported Ambulation: : Using assistive devices or support to facilitate walking.
Treadmill Training: Gradual progression to walking on a treadmill with support.

Functional Tasks:

Activities of Daily Living (ADL) Training: : Practicing tasks like dressing, grooming, and eating.
Functional Reach Exercises: Improving arm and hand function for daily tasks.

Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT):

Forced Use: : Restraining the unaffected limb to encourage use and improvement of the affected limb.

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES):

Stimulation: : Applying electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions and improve muscle strength.

Task-Specific Training:

Repetition: : Repeated practice of specific functional tasks to enhance motor learning.

Community Reintegration:

Outdoor Mobility Practice: : Preparing individuals to navigate varied terrains and environments.
Public Transportation Skills: Training for safe use of public transportation.

Home Exercise Program:

Independence at Home: : Prescribing exercises and activities for individuals to perform independently at home.

Education and Support:

Education on Recovery: : Providing information on the recovery process and setting realistic expectations.
Family/Caregiver Training: Involving family members or caregivers in the rehabilitation process.
