- Abstract
Authors studied sensorimotor reactions in 60 patients with stroke in the early stage of rehabilitation and in 20 healthy people. The evaluation of sensorimotor reactions using the "Sensoneck" system and functional independence with the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) scale was performed in the beginning of early stage of rehabilitation and at the discharge from the hospital. Most of patients became functionally independent though no statistically significant correlations between the FIM scores and "Sensoneck" scores were found to the end of rehabilitation. During early rehabilitation, the quality of motion performance improved slightly, and sensorimotor reactions improved statistically significantly (p<0.05).
