ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the treatment of continuous passive motion ( CPM) on lower motor function in pa-tients with stroke.Methods 60 patients were evenly randomized into control group and treatment group .The control group received conventional rehabilitation treatment , while the treatment group received conventional rehabilitation and CPM therapy .They were assessed with modified Ashworth scale ( MAS) ,Fugl-Meyer assessment ( FMA) ( lower limb,hip,knee and ankle) and 10-meter walking time.Results After treatment,the scores of MAS,FMA and 10-meter walking time were both improved when compared with those before treatment (P<0.05),and between the two groups ,the scores of MAS , FMA and 10-meter walking time were much better in the treatment group with signifi-cant difference ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion CPM can alleviate muscle spasms ,and enhance the muscle group coordi-nation on foot .Furthermore,CPM can contribute to the balance and lower limb motor function , and strengthen gait of patients with stroke .
