Stroke is a common neurological disease, the main pathological feature of which is cerebral ischemia or bleeding caused by sudden blockage or rupture of cerebral vessels. Impaired upper limb motor control after stroke severely affects patients’ quality of life and ability to perform daily activities. Traditional rehabilitation methods mainly rely on physical therapy and drug therapy, but there are limited effects.
It is to explore the clinical effect of motor imagery therapy in the study of upper limb motor control after stroke. Fifty patients with stroke and the influence of upper limb movement were selected as experimental subjects, 25 as an experimental group and 25 as a control group. The experimental group received six months of rehabilitation training using motor imagery therapy, and the control group received six months of rehabilitation training using traditional drug alteplase.
The experimental results were evaluated by SPSS23.0 system. P<0.05 indicated that the difference was statistically significant, and the upper limb motor function and muscle strength of 20 patients in the experimental group were significantly improved after half a year, More than 80 percent have recovered, with significant differences (P<0.05).
After the motor imagination therapy is integrated into stroke patients, it can promote the reorganization of brain nerves, enhance the motor memory of muscles, improve the patients’ attention and concentration on sports, and help them recover the motor function of the upper limbs.
