RESUMO O acidente vascular encefálico pode deixar sequelas neurológicas, motoras e sensitivas. Para avaliar e acompanhar o prognóstico do paciente, são usados diversos instrumentos funcionais de medida, como a escala de Fugl-Meyer, que apesar de amplamente utilizada para estimar a recuperação sensório-motora, é uma avaliação longa e que exige treinamento. Diante disso, o objetivo deste estudo é analisar se a força de preensão manual, o timed up and go e a medida de independência funcional podem predizer os resultados da escala Fugl-Meyer, com o intuito de otimizar o tempo de avaliação da recuperação sensório-motora, tanto para o acompanhamento da resposta ao tratamento quanto para pesquisas científicas. Para tanto, avaliou-se a força de preensão manual de 35 hemiparéticos crônicos, e em seguida foram aplicadas à escala Fugl-Meyer, que avalia a recuperação motora, a medida de independência funcional nas atividades motoras e o timed up and go, indicativo de mobilidade funcional. Para análise estatística utilizou-se a regressão linear múltipla (r2). A força de preensão manual mostrou-se preditora da recuperação motora (r2=0,46; p=0,001), enquanto a mobilidade (r2=0,255; p=0,007) e a independência funcional (r2=0,054; p=0,2) não foram capazes de predizer os resultados da escala Fugl-Meyer. Após análise, pôde-se inferir que a força de preensão manual é preditora moderada da recuperação motora pós-acidente vascular encefálico, enquanto mobilidade e a independência funcional, não.

ABSTRACT Objective: To validate the upper limb assessments tool, Shriners Hospital Upper Extremity Evaluation (SHUEE), for individuals with hemiplegic cerebral palsy in the Brazilian population. Methods: Validation study to translate and culturally adapt the Manual and the instrument. The psychometric properties evaluated were reliability and convergent validity. Reliability was determined by internal consistency (Cronbach’s α coefficient), ceiling and floor effect, sensitivity to changes, and intra- and interobserver agreement. Convergent validity was performed using the Pediatric Motor Activity Log, the self-care scale of the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory, and the Manual Ability Classification System. Results: We evaluated 21 individuals with hemiplegic cerebral palsy, with a mean age of 8.7±4.0 years. After the instrument was translated, there was no need for cultural adaptation. The total Cronbach’s α coefficient was 0.887 (95% confidence interval [95%CI] 0.745-0.970). We calculated sensitivity to changes in five subjects who underwent treatment with Botulinum Toxin Type A and physical therapy, with a significant difference between pre- and post-treatment evaluations in the Spontaneous Functional Analysis and Dynamic Positional Analysis. Convergent validity showed a significant correlation of the Spontaneous Functional Analysis and Dynamic Positional Analysis with the scales evaluated. All items of SHUEE presented high intra- and interobserver agreement. Conclusions: The results revealed that the Brazilian version of the SHUEE demonstrated good reliability and convergent validity, suggesting that it is an adequate and reliable tool for individuals with hemiplegic cerebral palsy in the Brazilian population.

ABSTRACT The purpose of the present study was to perform a systematic review of the literature to investigate how and with what modifications or adaptations constraint-induced movement therapy has been employed in clinical practice for therapeutic interventions in children with cerebral palsy. Searches were conducted of the CAPES (Brazilian fostering agency) periodical portal, Pubmed, Bireme, Science Direct, Scielo and PEDro databases for relevant articles published between January 2010 and May 2016. The articles retrieved were evaluated, scored and qualified by two blinded reviewers using the Physical therapy Evidence Database Scale. The searches led to the retrieval of 102 articles, 12 of which were included in the present systematic review. A table was created containing information on the study groups, inclusion criteria, intervention, intervention frequency, difficulties encountered, evaluations and outcomes. Considerable variety was found in the therapeutic intervention models. The findings of the present review demonstrate that constraint-induced movement therapy in pediatric clinical practice is not employed in its original form. Although the studies analyzed did not have a common methodology regarding the use of this type of therapy, the method has been adapted with considerable flexibility, providing promising, positive results regarding the therapeutic intervention of the paretic upper limb in children with cerebral palsy.

ABSTRACT Video games with virtual interaction have been successfully used in physical therapy programs, although there is a lack of knowledge regarding evidence involving clinical results. This study aimed to evaluate learning and some parameters of the center of pressure (COP) displacement of a Nintendo Wii Fit task in hemiplegic and healthy subjects immediately after a rehabilitation training program and after a 3-month washout period. Twenty subjects being 10 hemiplegic and 10 healthy performed three assessments over different periods; Pre, Post and 3-months after rehabilitation training. Participants were positioned on the Wii Balance Board(r). The game task performed (Ski Slalom(r) game) involved mediolateral movements. During the task's execution, the Wii Balance Board(r) was placed on a force plate (AMTI OR-6, USA). As such, COP data displacement could be collected during the game. After the training, the hemiplegic subjects showed no change in COP sway pattern and this condition persisted after three months. However, both groups improved their time performance to finish the task after training and maintained the improvement in performance after 3-months. COP displacement of hemiplegic subjects did not change after training, healthy subjects were able to reduce their mediolateral and anteroposterior COP displacement.

Introdução: A Motor Assessment Scale (MAS) tem mostrado ser um instrumento válido e fidedigno na avaliação do progresso clínico de indivíduos que sofreram um Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC). Objectivos: Traduzir e adaptar a MAS à realidade portuguesa e contribuir para a validação da versão portuguesa, avaliando a sua consistência interna. Metodologia: Após um processo de tradução, revisão por peritos, retroversão e comparação com a versão original, obteve-se a versão portuguesa da MAS. Procedeu-se a um estudo correlacional transversal para avaliação da consistência interna; a amostra final incluiu 30 sujeitos, 16 do sexo masculino e 14 do sexo feminino, com idades entre os 42 e 85 anos (média de 64±11,85 anos), com hemiparésia ou hemiplegia decorrente de AVC e que realizavam fisioterapia em um de 6 Hospitais seleccionados por conveniência; a média do tempo de diagnóstico foi de 306±1322,82 dias e do tempo de fisioterapia foi de 47±57,57 dias. Resultados: Obteve-se uma média de 24±14,51 pontos nas pontuações totais e um coeficiente de Alfa de Cronbach de 0,939, sem a exclusão de qualquer item; as correlações inter item variaram entre 0,395 e 0,916. Conclusões: Apesar da reduzida amostra e da sua heterogeneidade nas características e pontuações da escala, a Versão Portuguesa da MAS apresentou uma forte consistência interna, verificando-se que os itens estão, na sua maioria, muito correlacionados entre si, o que sustenta a adequação de cada item e apoia que, de forma geral, esta escala tem uma concepção lógica e estruturada.

Introducción: la hemiplejía como consecuencia de un ictus constituye una importante causa de discapacidad. La continuidad y calidad en el proceso rehabilitador supone mejores perspectivas en el pronóstico de los pacientes. Objetivo: evaluar el grado de discapacidad en los pacientes hemipléjicos del área de salud del Policlínico Docente Universitario del Cerro. Métodos: estudio descriptivo, transversal en los pacientes que acudieron consecutivamente al área de rehabilitación del citado policlínico, desde septiembre de 2009 hasta julio de 2011. La muestra estuvo constituida por 124 hemipléjicos por enfermedad cerebrovascular mayores de 15 años, los cuales fueron evaluados con la Escala de Discapacidad de Rosetón. Se excluyeron los enfermos con afasia sensorial o mixta y aquellos que se negaron a participar. Resultados: en 84 (67,8 %) pacientes se encontró independencia para la orientación y predominó la semidependencia para el desplazamiento y las necesidades físicas. Para la higiene personal, 48 (38,7 %) pacientes resultaron ser dependientes. La falta de motivación para ocupar el tiempo libre se encontró en 92 (74,2 %) pacientes, casi siempre por dificultades en la convivencia y en las relaciones familiares. Conclusiones: el grado de discapacidad de los pacientes hemipléjicos evaluados viene dado por la semidependencia en el desplazamiento y las necesidades físicas y la dependencia para el autocuidado. Las dificultades en la convivencia y las relaciones familiares interfieren en la motivación del paciente para ocupar el tiempo libre.Introduction: hemiplegia is an important cause of disability as a result of a stroke. The persistence and quality of the rehabilitative process lead to better results in the patient prognosis. Objective: to evaluate the extent of disability in hemiplegic patients from the health area under "Cerro" university teaching polyclinics. Methods: a cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted in hemiplegic patients who regularly went to the rehabilitation service of Cerro polyclinics from September 2009 to July 2011. The sample consisted of one hundred and twenty four over 15 years-old hemiplegic patients due to cerebrovascular disease, who were evaluated according to the Rosseton's disability scale. Those patients with mixed or sensory aphasia and those who refused to participate were excluded. Results: of the participants, 84 (67.8 %) patients were independent for orientation whereas semi-dependence for movement and physical needs prevailed. For personal hygiene, 48 (38.7 %) patients were dependent. Ninety two (74.2 %) patients did not feel motivated to spend their leisure time in doing any activity, basically because of difficulties in living together with their relatives. Conclusions: the extent of disability of evaluated hemiplegic patients is caused by their partial dependence in terms of movement, and physical needs and by their dependence for self-care. Difficulties in coexistence and family relationships interfere with the motivation of the patients to spend their leisure time.

The objective of the investigation who gave as result this work was to investigate the effectiveness of kinaesthetic motor imagery in the activation of the hemiplegic hand muscles following stroke. Theexperiment consisted of two random groups. Movements were measuredafter treatment. The participants were ten patients with hemiplegichands (men who mean age was 74.4 years; mean time since stroke 3.05 months). All patients received three sessions of physical treatmentbased on an identical treatment protocol. Five patients were randomlyassigned to an experimental group practising kinaesthetic motorimagery of a grasp using the ‘lumbrical action’ (experimental group). The others five (control group) followed a relaxation script. All thepatients were then asked to grasp an object using the ‘lumbricalaction’. The grasps were recorded using an optoelectronic motioncapture system. The magnitude of the extension of the index fingerand the correlation of the angular displacement of the proximalphalangeal joints and the metacarpophalangeal joints were calculated.The movement time for the whole grip was calculated. The experimentalgroup demonstrated higher extension in the index finger (p = < 0.01) and they had a higher correlation coefficient (0.99) than the controlgroup (0.77) for the displacement of the proximal interphalangealjoint and the metacarpophalangeal joints. The movement time for the experimental group was faster, although the difference was not significant.

The incidence of cerebrovascular disease in Spain ranges between 120 and 350 cases per 100.000 inhabitants. The incidence is lower in women (169/100.000) than men (183-364/100.000). It is the leading cause of death in Spain by specific entities in women and the third in men.The main complication, hemiplegic, resulting in functional sequelae, they are going to affect both the patient and the relatives with whom he lives (sometimes is a family trauma, because the patient may need constant care). The figure of the caregiver at these cases is important because the recovery period may be extended in time or even undefined.The objective of this protocol is to improve the caregiver labour so that adequate hygienic postural measures should be taken at home in order to prevent side effects such as pressure ulcers, stiffness or deformities that worsen the diagnosis and quality of life of the person affected.Finally, we may add that following these rules contributes to the functional improvement of these patients, since it provides propioceptive information, it raises awareness of body image, decrease the muscle hypertonus as well as it helps a good gait pattern and contributes to prevent the onset of shoulder pain which is so common in this disease.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Realizar una revisión sistemática de la literatura que permita evaluar la efectividad del uso de la terapia de restricción del lado sano (CIMT) para la recuperación de la función motora de la mano espástica del adulto con hemiplejía entre los 18 y 85 años de edad. Materiales y métodos: Se llevó a cabo una revisión sistemática de ensayos clínicos publicados en diferentes bases de datos, tales como Pubmed, PeDro, OTseeker, así como en bibliotecas virtuales como, por ejemplo, Science Direct, ProQuest y Ebsco, con los términos de búsqueda "constraint induced movement therapy" y "stroke", entre enero y diciembre del 2016. Se buscaron artículos sin límites de publicación ni restricción de idioma, cuya elegibilidad se realizó mediante la estrategia Consort y la evaluación de la calidad metodológica aplicando la escala de PEDro. Se incluyeron 29 estudios que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión, en los que 648 personas fueron asignadas al grupo experimental y 650 al grupo control. Resultados: El grupo de terapia de restricción del lado sano mostro tiempos de intervención que oscilaban entre 45 minutos a seis horas, dependiendo el protocolo de atención. En la síntesis cualitativa se presentaron resultados positivos a nivel de función motora, destreza manual e incorporación al entorno normal en relación con otro tipo de intervención, aunque los efectos no fueron estadísticamente significativos debido a muestras pequeñas incluidas en los estudios, los protocolos de aplicación y la variedad en el tipo de restricción. Conclusión: La CIMT es una alternativa de intervención que puede implementarse en personas con deficiencias funcionales por accidente cerebrovascular (ACV) en cualquier etapa con un compromiso leve a moderado, presentando como condición inicial la capacidad de extender dedos a los 10° y la muñeca a los 30° del lado con la paresia. ABSTRACT Objective: This study was a systematic review on the effectiveness of the use of the constraint induced movement therapy (CIMT) for the recovery of the motor function hand of the adult with spastic hemiplegia adult between 18 and 85 years of age. Materials and methods: We conducted a systematic review of published clinical trials in different data bases: Pubmed, PeDro, OTseeker, virtual libraries and Science Direct, ProQuest, and Ebsco, with the search terms "constraint induced movement therapy" and "stroke", between January to December of 2016, without limits of publication or restriction of language, whose eligibility is conducted through the strategy Consort and the assessment of the methodological quality using the PEDro scale. A total of 29 clinical trial were included, where 648 people were assigned to the experimental group and 650 in the control group. Results: The group of therapy of CIMT side showed intervention times ranging from 45 minutes to 6 hours depending on the protocol of attention in the qualitative synthesis were presented positive results at the level of motor function, manual dexterity and incorporation into the normal environment in relation with another type of intervention, although not all with homogeneous results and statistically significant effects. This is due to small samples included in the studies, two protocols of perform, the use of restrictions as gloves, cast, sling plus glove. Conclusion: The CIMT is an alternative intervention that can be implemented in people with sequels of stroke with low or moderate compromise, presenting as an initial condition the capacity of extend the fingers to 10° and the wrist to 30° of side with paresia; could be used in people at any stage of stroke.

El ictus sigue siendo la principal causa de discapacidad motora en el mundo, y la hemiparesia contralateral a la lesión, el síntoma más común. La afectación del miembro superior va a condicionar de forma notable la funcionalidad del brazo, su incorporación en actividades de la vida diaria, y la calidad de vida del paciente. Mejorar el control sensitivo-motor del miembro superior es uno de los retos importantes en neurorrehabilitación La neurorehabilitación se basa en el hecho de que los principios de aprendizaje motor se pueden aplicar a la recuperación de movimiento tras una lesión cerebral, y que el entrenamiento puede desembocar en mejorías permanentes en la función sensitivo-motora. En base a los conocimientos sobre control motor, aprendizaje y plasticidad tras ictus, se deben establecer programas terapéuticos que fomenten la neuroplasticidad adaptativa. El objetivo principal de la Tesis es recoger y analizar los resultados protocolos de rehabilitación destinados a la recuperación del miembro superior parético en sujetos crónicos. Como parte del cuerpo principal de la tesis se incluyen dos estudios: - Effect of a mixed reality-based intervention on arm, hand and finger function on chronic stroke: Evalúa un protocolo apoyado en un Entorno de Realidad Mixta diseñado para sujetos hemiparéticos con afectación leve - Mirror therapy in chronic stroke survivors with severely impaired upper limb function: a randomized controlled trial: Estudia la eficacia de un protocolo de Terapia con Espejo, aplicado a sujetos con afectación muy severa En el apartado Anexo se incluye otro trabajo publicado: - Eficacia del sistema Armeo®Spring en la fase crónica del ictus. Estudio en hemiparesias leves-moderadas: Refleja la eficacia de la asistencia robótica, destinado en este caso al abordaje de brazo con una afectación leve-moderada. Por otra parte, se revisa la literatura científica a través de las bases de datos Medline, PubMed, EMBASE y PEDro, al respecto de las técnicas de rehabilitación estudiadas, su eficacia y los fundamentos fisiológicos en las que se basan. Con el entorno de Realidad Mixta en sujetos con paresia leve, y con la terapia con sistema Robótico para pacientes con afectación leve-moderada del miembro superior, se objetivan beneficios significativos en escalas pertenecientes al dominio CIF de actividad. En el primer caso también hay cambios positivos significativos en las de participación, y en el segundo, en las escalas de función. El estudio controlado de Terapia con Espejo para el miembro superior con afectación sensitivo-motora muy severa resulta en beneficios significativos en la sensibilidad táctil, mientras que la mejoría a nivel motor no alcanza significación estadística., Stroke is still the main cause of motor disability in the world, and hemiparesis is the most common symptom after stroke. Involvement of the upper limb is going to significantly affect the arm function, the participation in basic daily tasks, and the quality of life of the patients. Improving motor control of the upper limb is an important challenge in neuro-rehabilitacion. Neuro-rehabilitation is based on the fact that motor learning principles can be applied to movement recovery after brain injury, and that training can lead to permanent improvements in motor and sensitivity function. Based on the knowledge of motor control concepts, learning principles and plasticity after stroke, we must establish therapeutic programs that enhance adaptive brain reorganization changes. The main objective of the thesis is to analyze the results of different rehabilitation protocols designed for the recovery of the paretic upper limb in chronic patients. Two studies are included in the main body of the thesis: -Effect of a mixed reality-based intervention on arm, hand and finger function on chronic stroke: it evaluates the effect of using a specific mixed reality environment in a rehabilitation program designed for hemiparetic subjects with mild upper limb paresis. - Mirror therapy in chronic stroke survivors with severely impaired upper limb function: to randomized controlled trial: it studies the effectiveness of a mirror therapy rehabilitation protocol on hemiparetic subject with severe motor and sensitive arm impairment. A third published essay regarding upper limb rehabilitation is included in the Annex: - Efficacy of Armeo®Spring during the chronic phase of stroke. Study in mild to moderate cases of hemiparesis: it evaluates the effectiveness of robotic assistance approach, for patients with a mild to moderate paresis. Moreover, the thesis includes a thorough review of scientific publications regarding the rehabilitation techniques mentioned, using Medline, PubMed, EMBASE and PEDro databases. The mixed-reality system in subjects with a mild upper limb paresis, and the robotic system for patients with mild to moderate arm impairment, reflects statistically significant improvements in assessment scales belonging to the activity ICF domain. In the first case, we observe improvements also in participation scales , and in the second case, in function scales. The controlled mirror therapy protocol addressed to patients with very severe motor and sensitive arm impairment, results in significant benefits in touch sensitivity, while motor improvements don´t reach statistical significance.

En personas sanas tanto el miembro inferior como el superior son limitantes de la marcha ya que el bloqueo de cualquiera de ellos afecta a los parámetros de la misma. En pacientes hemiparésicos la limitación de la marcha por la afectación del miembro inferior es clara ya que altera el patrón completamente, pero el miembro superior tiene un papel distinto ya que en un principio sus movimientos son escasos. OBJETIVOS: En este estudio observamos si una posición correcta de hombro y codo afecta a la marcha mediante la aplicación de una ortesis. METODOLOGÍA: Los pacientes pasaron una serie de test con el brazo libre, una ortesis de bloqueo de hombro y una ortesis combinada de bloqueo de hombro y codo para observar los parámetros de la marcha. RESULTADOS: El uso de la ortesis no mejoró significativamente ninguna de las características de la marcha pero sí que había cierta mejora al usar la ortesis de hombro; sin embargo la velocidad empeoró significativamente con el uso de cualquierortesis. CONCLUSIÓN: La ortesis no parece ser una herramienta útil en la rehabilitación de la marcha en pacientes hemiparésicos In healthy people, both the lower limb and the upper limb limit the gait as the block of either affects the different parameters of the gait. In hemiparesis patients limitation of gait due to lower limb involvement is clear since it changes the gait pattern completely, but the upper limb has a different role, cause, in principle, its movements are limited. OBJECTIVES: In this study, we observed if a correct shoulder and elbow position affects the gait by applying an orthosis. METHODOLOGY: The patients were tested without orthosis, with shoulder orthosis and with combined shoulder and elbow orthosis to observe gait parameters. RESULTS: Use of orthosis didn’t improve any gait parameter significantly but it was a little improvement by using only the shoulder orthosis; however gait velocity decreased significantly by using either orthosis. CONCLUSION: Orthosis does not appear to be a useful tool in the rehabilitation of gait in hemiparesis patients Graduado o Graduada en Fisioterapia por la Universidad Pública de Navarra Fisioterapian Graduatua Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoan

Resumen: La epilepsia parcial continua es una forma de estatus epiléptico parcial, que se caracteriza por la presencia de mioclonías repetidas que afectan a un grupo muscular. Su origen es cortical y pueden prolongarse durante horas, días, semanas y excepcionalmente años. Dentro de estas formas de epilepsia podemos diferenciar 2 grupos: el primer grupo o síndrome de Kojewnikow clásico, comprende a niños con una lesión conocida en la región rolándica (cuya etiología es también conocida) y existe un daño neurológico estable (salvo si la lesión aumenta, como por ejemplo, los tumores). Consiste en la presencia de crisis parciales motoras, a veces seguidas por períodos de mioclonías bien localizadas. El segundo grupo o síndrome de Rasmussen se caracteriza por inicio de crisis en pacientes previamente sanos, comenzando con crisis parciales motoras a las cuales rápidamente se asocian mioclonías que pueden afectar distintas zonas corporales. La evolución es progresiva, con deterioro neurológico.Describimos el caso de un niño de 7 años de edad estudiado por crisis convulsivas parciales y degeneración progresiva de funciones superiores. Se le practican estudios de imagen, neurofisiológicos y pruebas de laboratorio, siendo diagnosticado de síndrome de Rasmussen. Finalmente, se le realiza una hemisferectomía paliativa, confirmándose el diagnóstico de encefalitis de Rasmussen mediante biopsia. Abstract: Continuous partial epilepsy is a form of partial status epilepticus, which is characterized by the presence of repeated myoclonus affecting a muscle group. Its origin is cortical and it can last for hours, days, weeks and exceptionally, years. Within these forms of epilepsy we can distinguish two groups: the first group or Kojewnikow classic syndrome includes children with a known lesion in the rolandic region (the etiology is also known) and there is a stable neurological damage (unless the injury increases, e.g., tumors). This disease is characterized by the presence of motor partial seizures, sometimes they are followed by periods of well-localized myoclonus. The second group or Rasmussen syndrome is characterized by onset of seizures in previously healthy patients, starting with partial motor seizures, that later can be combined with myoclonus that affect different areas of the body. It is a progressive disease that leads to neurological damage.A case is presented of a 7-year-old patient investigated due to having partial seizures and progressive neurological degeneration. After performing imaging studies, neuropsychological studies, and laboratory tests, he was diagnosed with Rasmussen's syndrome. Finally, a palliative hemispherectomy was performed and the diagnosis was confirmed by a biopsy.

Treball Final de Grau de Podologia, Escola Universitària d'Infermeria, Universitat de Barcelona, curs: 2014-2015, Tutor: Montse Marugán de los Bueis, Este trabajo profundiza en las características de la marcha en un paciente con un Accidente Cerebral Vascular (AVC), que de manera residual sufre una hemiplejía. Se han planteado tres objetivos: en primer lugar, profundizar en el conocimiento y actualizaciones sobre la marcha hemipléjica, en segundo lugar, detallar las características de la marcha hemipléjica y sus compensaciones y por último, revisar los tratamientos actualizados de rehabilitación y ortopedia. Las conclusiones a las que se han llegado después de esta revisión, es que el tratamiento ortopodológico que utilizamos en nuestra práctica clínica diaria puede ser útil en este tipo de pacientes, pero que en muchas ocasiones (dependiendo de la afectación de la extremidad inferior), es imprescindible el uso de ortesis ferulizantes para poder estabilizar la marcha. Además, es necesario realizar de manera combinada un tratamiento de rehabilitación, para que la recuperación de la marcha sea lo más eficaz posible.

Sensor Kinect ,Rehabilitación - Innovaciones tecnológicas ,Hemiplegia - Abstract
En la actualidad existen varios sistemas automáticos de control que ayudan a comprobar el estado de realización de ciertos ejercicios físicos, así como juegos, pero no hay aplicaciones que sirvan para monitorizar ejercicios que formen parte de un protocolo concreto. Todos los cálculos y medidas que haya que obtener de estos ejercicios obligan a que el paciente mantenga una postura durante un tiempo extra. Tomar esa medida conlleva una mayor fatiga por su parte y además tiempo perdido en la realización del ejercicio. Evitar esto es uno de los principales objetivos del proyecto. Otro objetivo es el de llevar a cabo un registro rutinario de todos los valores que sea necesario obtener de los ejercicios, para poder en un momento dado sacar conclusiones respecto a si se está produciendo una mejora o no del paciente. Esto se llevaría a cabo no sólo viendo los datos, sino comprobando de forma estadística las mejoras producidas en un período de tiempo determinado. A la hora de afrontar el cálculo de la amplitud de un movimiento para los ejercicios, se puede llevar a cabo utilizando únicamente un sensor Kinect. Esto supone una gran ventaja con respecto a otros métodos tecnológicos, evitando el uso de otro tipo de sensores que encarecerían los costes considerablemente, o que llegarían a ser molestos si tuviera que llevarlos puestos el paciente en algún momento. Este proyecto se ha iniciado con movimientos de las extremidades superiores, pero se podría ampliar su funcionamiento a una gran cantidad de movimientos de distintas partes del cuerpo., Departamento de Informática (Arquitectura y Tecnología de Computadores, Ciencias de la Computación e Inteligencia Artificial, Lenguajes y Sistemas Informáticos), Máster en Ingeniería Informática

RESUMO Objetivo: analisar as condições sociodemográficas e de saúde (inclusive os agravos neurológicos) de sujeitos com LEA em idade produtiva, bem como suas condições pregressas e atuais de trabalho. Métodos: estudo de natureza descritiva e de abordagem quantitativa. Os dados foram coletados entre junho e dezembro de 2014, por meio de uma entrevista semiestruturada. Resultados: participaram do estudo 48 sujeitos com Lesão Cerebral Adquirida; a incidência entre o sexo masculino (52,1%) e feminino (47,9%) foi equilibrada; a média de idade, no momento da lesão, foi de 48,7 anos; 64,5% eram casados; 62,5% possuíam Ensino Fundamental Incompleto; a ocupação anterior à lesão mais frequente foi a de doméstica (18,7%); 47,9% dos sujeitos foram aposentados após a lesão, 6,3% voltaram ao trabalho, e 93,7% gostariam de retornar. Quanto aos comprometimentos neurológicos, 41,1% foram acometidos por Acidente Vascular Cerebral Isquêmico (52,1% apresentaram afasia, e 52,2% tiveram hemiplegia direita). A condição de saúde física de 60,4% foi considerada moderada; 58,3% avaliaram sua saúde mental como ruim; 60,4% nunca fumaram; e 93,7% pararam de ingerir álcool após a lesão. Notou-se, ainda, que 62,5% dos sujeitos eram acompanhados somente por fisioterapeutas e que 54,2% usavam algum recurso assistivo. Ademais, as atividades de lazer de 58,4% dos sujeitos estavam prejudicadas. Conclusão: a média de idade dos sujeitos deste estudo é inferior a outros estudos nacionais; o nível de escolaridade é baixo; as ocupações anteriores à lesão eram de baixo rendimento financeiro; e o índice de aposentadoria após a lesão foi alto. As sequelas neurológicas impactam, assim, negativamente a vida/saúde dos sujeitos, condição agravada pelo fato de os recursos terapêuticos serem incompletos.

Introducción: la hemiplejia infantil es comúnmente producida por fenómenos de hipoxia-isquemia o de hemorragias cerebrales. En el caso de las hemorragias cerebrales, se producen hipertensión endocraneal y déficit en los mecanismos de regulación de la circulación sanguínea intra cerebral lo que ocasiona edema e isquemia cerebral además del fenómeno de masa que genera, por presión, desplazamiento del tejido cerebral. Objetivo: demostrar que la adecuada intervención fisioterapéutica y el compromiso de los padres en la rehabilitación neurológica, produce recuperación funcional motora. Caso clínico: se presenta el caso de un paciente, de género masculino y nueve meses de edad, con hemiplejia mixta del lado derecho, causada por hemorragia en los ganglios basales. Tras siete meses de fisioterapia, inicia la marcha independiente. Conclusión: es pertinente establecer que las características de este cuadro clínico, hacen de la rehabilitación adecuada la principal y mejor medida terapéutica. Además, la satisfactoria evolución del paciente produce mejoría en la calidad de vida del mismo y su familia. (MÉD.UIS.2012;25(3):245-50). Introduction: child hemiplegia phenomenon is commonly caused by hypoxia-ischemia or cerebral hemorrhages. Particularly, brain hemorrhages produce intracranial hypertension, which generates deficit in the regulation mechanisms of the intra cerebral blood flow. This deficit causes cerebral edema and ischemia in addition to the clinical chart that develops a mass phenomenon by pressure, which displaces the brain tissue. Objective: to demonstrate that an adequate physical intervention and parents' responsibility about their son neurological improvement increases the benefits of the treatment. Clinical case: a case of a nine-month-old male patient, with mixed hemiplegia on the right side, caused by bleeding in the basal ganglia. After seven months of physiotherapy, the patient starts independent walking. Conclusion: it is pertinent to establish the characteristics of this clinical outcome, shows the adequate rehabilitation as the best and main therapeutic option. Besides, a satisfactory evolution produces improvement in life quality of the patient and his family. (MÉD. UIS.2012;25(3):245-50).

El maltrato infantil es un problema de gran importancia tanto social como médico, y sus consecuencias en muchas ocasiones son irreparables. Realizamos una revisión bibliográfica con enfoque neuroquirúrgico, y analizamos con detalle las lesiones que se producen en el sistema nervioso central, estudiando su fisiopatología, las secuelas neurológicas que producen y su implicación en el tratamiento rehabilitador y el futuro de los niños. Child abuse is both socially and medically troublesome and many times produces permanent consequences. A review of the literature is done from a neurosurgical standpoint, and the lesions produced at the Central Nervous System are evaluated in detail, including their physiopathology, neurological sequels and implications for rehabilitation treatment and the child's future life.

En este estudio se analiza el efecto debido a la manipulación de algunas variables utilizadas en el tratamiento con Biorretroalimentación –EMG de la espasticidad. Las variables consideradas fueron el número de ensayos y la velocidad de la realización de los ejercicios. El objetivo fue averiguar sí es posible obtener una reducción en el tiempo de tratamiento observando los efectos obtenidos en una sesión. Para ello se utilizaron replicaciones directas: Se estudiaron tres grupos musculares distintos, cada grupo muscular en un sujeto diferente y en una sola sesión para cada sujeto. En cada sesión se aplicaron distintas combinaciones de valores de las variables. En este estudio participaron tres sujetos y se realizaron análisis de series temporales en dos de los sujetos, constituyendo en el otro sujeto una descripción de caso. Los resultados sugieren, que el número de ensayos por sesión puede ser incrementado considerablemente, que el intervalo entre ensayos puede ser reducido, aunque no excesivamente, que el entrenamiento se pueden realizar directamente con velocidades elevadas, que el cambio de una velocidad a otra mayor produce un incremento en el registro EMG y que el nivel EMG de reposo entre los ensayos disminuye progresivamente durante el entrenamiento. Se concluye que mediante la manipulación de estas variables es posible un tratamiento de la espasticidad de tiempo más reducido. The effect due to the manipulation of some variables used in the treatment of spasticity are analyzed in this study. Consider variables are the number of essays and velocity of exercises. The objective was to find out if time reduction in treatment is possible trhouhg observing effects obtained in just one session. For the effect direct replications were used. Three different muscle groups were studied in three different subjects, every one of them in one session. Every session is composed of different values of variables. Time series analisys was conducted in two subjects, the other subject was a case description. Results suggest that number of essays in session can be considerable incremented, time interval between essays can be reduced but not in excess, training can be done in high velocity directly, changing from one velocity to another greater one produce an increment in EMG register and EMG level between essays decreases during treatment progressivly. Conclusions are that trought manipulation of this variables a more reduced time treatment of spasticity is possible

- Abstract
Introduction: Stroke is currently the main cause of permanent disability in adults. The impairments are a combination of sensory, motor, cognitive and emotional changes that result in restrictions on the ability to perform basic activities of daily living (BADL). Postural control is affected and causes problems with static and dynamic balance, thus increasing the risk of falls and secondary injuries. The purpose of this review was to compile the literature to date, and assess the impact of ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) on postural control and gait in individuals who have suffered a stroke., Development: The review included randomised and controlled trials that examined the effects of AFO in stroke patients between 18 and 80 years old, with acute or chronic evolution. No search limits on the date of the studies were included, and the search lasted until April 2011. The following databases were used: Pubmed, Trip Database, Cochrane library, Embase, ISI Web Knowledge, CINHAL and PEDro. Intervention succeeded in improving some gait parameters, such as speed and cadence. However it is not clear if there was improvement in the symmetry, postural sway or balance., Conclusions: Because of the limitations of this systematic review, due to the clinical diversity of the studies and the methodological limitations, 0these results should be considered with caution., (Copyright © 2011 Sociedad Española de Neurología.

- Abstract
Introduction: The ability to drive after a stroke has been recognised by many authors as a sign of independence and it is closely associated with proper social reintegration. However, it remains unclear how the driving ability of an individual who has suffered a stroke should be evaluated, and by whom. Neurorehabilitation can produce improvements in patients who have suffered a stroke, and patients may therefore be able to resume driving at the end of an appropriate neurorehabilitation programme. The aim of this article is to present a literature review in order to highlight current evidence regarding methods for assessing driving ability and therapeutic methods applied in order to recover a patient's ability to drive., Development: A literature search was performed in different databases for the period between 1993 and 2011. Studies were analysed individually based on methods for assessing driving ability and neurorehabilitation measures., Conclusions: If there are any doubts regarding stroke patients' ability to drive, patients should be assessed appropriately. The proper way to assess these patients according to the literature is by employing a multidisciplinary evaluation to determine who is able to take a road test. Neurorehabilitation exercises currently in use may be able to improve driving ability in stroke patients., (Copyright © 2012 Sociedad Española de Neurología. Published by Elsevier Espana.
