ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To investigate the effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in recovery of lower limb dysfunction in patients poststroke. PARTICIPANTS ANDMETHODS:
Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Medline, ISI web of knowledge, EBSCO, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature and Scopus.RESULTS:
Fifteen trials with 385 patients were included. Results showed that rTMS had a significant effect on balance (standard mean difference [SMD] = .38; 95% confidence interval [CI], .07 .69; I2â¯=â¯51%) and mobility (SMD -.67; 95% CI, -1.08 -.26; I2â¯=â¯72%). However, rTMS had no significant immediate effects on the lower limb subscale of the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA-L) (SMDâ¯=â¯.01; 95% CI, -.29 .31; I2â¯=â¯0%). Continued effects of rTMS was also found to be significant during the follow-up period (SMDâ¯=â¯.46; 95% CI, .09 .84; I2â¯=â¯14%).CONCLUSION:
rTMS was found to result in positive effects on mobility, balance and long-term prognosis of FMA-L. However data indicated that there is insufficient evidence for the effectiveness of rTMS in improving lower limb function.Palabras clave
