Resumen
SILVA, Raquel et al. Evidence On The Application Of Neuromuscular Bands In The Rehabilitation Of The Foot In Post-Stroke Patients. RPER [online]. 2018, vol.1, n.2, pp.73-77. ISSN 2184-965X. https://doi.org/10.33194/rper.2018.v1.n2.02.4477.
Objective:
To determine the benefits of the application of neuromuscular bands in the rehabilitation of the foot in post-stroke patients.
Methodology:
A systematic review of the literature according to the model of Joanna Briggs Institute. Studies have been included in adults after stroke to which neuromuscular bands have been applied. Five independent reviewers performed the critical evaluation, extraction and synthesis of the data.
Presentation and interpretation of results:
The 4 included studies reported improvements in body posture, ambulation and sensory perception.
Conclusion:
The studies analyzed suggest that neuromuscular bands may be a promising method to be used as a complementary method in the treatment of the patient's foot post stroke, and further studies are needed in this area.
