平衡训练,功能恢复

Cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) otherwise known as “strokes,” occur in nearly 800,000 individuals each year. Stroke survivors are often left with deficits in physical and cognitive function; in fact, up to 78% of survivors have impairments in executive function, attention, and memory (Nys et al. 2007, Zinn et al. 2007, Lesniak et al. 2008).
脑血管疾病又被称为“中风”,每年将近有800.000人遭遇这种疾病。中风患者通常是左边的身体和认知功能受损。实际上,高达78%的幸存者在执行功能、注意力和记忆方面都受到损害。
Canadian researchers were interested to see if an exercise program could improve cognitive deficits in stroke survivors over 50 years old. They participated in a 6-month exercise program for 2 hours per week in addition to 1 hour of recreational exercise each week.
加拿大的研究者对一个锻炼项目能否提高超过50岁的中风患者的认知障碍很有兴趣。他们参与了每周2小时共六个月的锻炼以及额外的每周一小时的休闲运动。
The researchers used the FAME (Fitness and Mobility Exercise) program, which has been shown to improve mobility, strength, and cardiovascular fitness in patients with chronic stroke (Pang et al. 2005). The FAME program included balance exercises on foam pads and wobble boards.
研究者使用FAME(健身和灵活性练习)项目,对慢性中风患者的灵活性、力量和心血管能力的提高有一定的影响。FAME项目包括泡沫轴和多向平衡板的平衡练习。
After the program, participants improved in memory and executive function, as well as knee strength and walking speed. The authors acknowledged that their study was limited by a lack of a control group and small sample size. This pilot study suggests that an exercise program including Thera-Band® Stability Trainers and wobble boards may improve physical and cognitive function in chronic stroke survivors.
项目之后,参与者的记忆和执行功能有所提高,以及膝盖力量和行走速度也有提高。研究者承认研究受到限制因为缺乏对照组和样本量略小。
初步研究表明使用了赛乐的平衡训练垫和多向板的体育锻炼能够改善慢性中风患者的身体和执行功能。
