RESUMO
Our aim was to explore the influence of sleep and circadian preference on upper extremity (UE) rehabilitation in stroke patients after constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in a cross-sectional retrospective observational study. Forty-three patients were selected to complete questionnaires on circadian preference, sleep quality, excessive daytime sleepiness, and risk of obstructive sleep apnea. They had undergone a 10-day standard CIMT program without medical complications and with normal to minimal cognitive dysfunction. All pre- and postrehabilitation scores (patient perception of the quantity and quality of use of the affected UE and self-quantification of motor ability) were analyzed retrospectively. All patients had improved perception of the quantity and quality of use of the affected UE and self-quantified motor ability. Patients with an evening-type chronotype demonstrated less improvement than those with morning and intermediate types. In addition, patients with poor sleep quality showed less improvement in functional ability than those with good sleep quality. Circadian preferences and sleep quality impacted the improvements in motor performance of patients with stroke after CIMT rehabilitation. This is the first study to suggest that rehabilitation sessions must respect the circadian preferences of patients and that sleep quality can affect outcomes. Future studies should investigate the relationship and mechanisms between circadian preference and poor sleep quality and rehabilitation outcomes on a larger scale.

OBJECTIVES: To translate PMAL-R and adapt for the Brazilian culture; analyze the reliability and the internal consistency of the Brazilian version. METHOD: Translation of PMAL-R to the Portuguese-Brazil and back translation. The back-translated version was revised by the authors of the scale. The final version was administered to a sample of 24 patients with spastic hemiparesis CP between 2-8 years. RESULTS: The reliability intra and inter-rater were suitable (how often = 0.97 and 0.98, how well = 0.98 and 0.99 respectively) and so the internal consistency (0.98). CONCLUSION: The Brazilian version of PMAL-R has adequate internal consistency, reliability intra and inter raters and can be used to assess the spontaneous use of the upper limb of children with CP type spastic hemiparesis, aged 2-8 years.

ABSTRACT The standardized instrument developed to assess the use of the affected upper limb in children with cerebral palsy (CP) is the Pediatric Motor Activity Log Revised (PMAL-R). Objectives To translate PMAL-R and adapt for the Brazilian culture; analyze the reliability and the internal consistency of the Brazilian version. Method Translation of PMAL-R to the Portuguese-Brazil and back translation. The back-translated version was revised by the authors of the scale. The final version was administered to a sample of 24 patients with spastic hemiparesis CP between 2–8 years. Results The reliability intra and inter-rater were suitable (how often = 0.97 and 0.98, how well = 0.98 and 0.99 respectively) and so the internal consistency (0.98).

RESUMO A Pediatric Motor Activity Log-Revised (PMAL-R) é um instrumento padronizado desenvolvido para avaliar o uso do membro superior afetado em crianças com paralisia cerebral (PC). Objetivos Traduzir a PMAL-R e fazer sua adaptação transcultural para o Português do Brasil; analisar a confiabilidade e a consistência interna da versão brasileira. Métodos Tradução e retrotradução da PMAL-R. A versão retrotraduzida foi revista pelos autores da escala; a versão final foi administrada a uma amostra de 24 pacientes com PC do tipo hemiparesia espástica entre 2–8 anos. Resultados Adequada confiabilidade intra e inter-avaliadores (frequência = 0,97 e 0,98, qualidade = 0,98 e 0,99, respectivamente), assim como a consistência interna (0,98). Conclusão A versão brasileira da PMAL-R apresenta consistência interna e confiabilidade intra e inter examinadores adequadas, sendo válida para avaliar o uso espontâneo do membro superior de crianças com PC do tipo hemiparesia espástica, com idade entre 2–8 anos.

ABSTRACT Objective To determine if the original protocol of Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT), is adequate to reverse the nonuse of the affected upper limb (AUL) in patients with Cerebral Palsy (CP) in adulthood. Method The study included 10 patients diagnosed with CP hemiparesis had attended the adult protocol CIMT, from January/August 2009/2014. Results Average age 24.6 (SD 9.44); MAL average pretreatment How Often (HO) = 0.72 and How Well (HW) = 0.68 and post-treatment HO = 3.77 and HW = 3.60 (p ≤ 0.001) and pretreatment WMFT average = 21.03 and post-treatment average = 18.91 (p = 0.350). Conclusion The constraint-induced movement therapy is effective to reverse the nonuse learn of the AUL in adult patients with CP.
RESUMO Objetivo Determinar se o protocolo original da Terapia por Contensão Induzida (TCI), é adequado para reverter o não uso do membro superior afetado (MSA) em pacientes com Paralisia Cerebral (PC) na fase adulta. Método Foram incluídos no estudo 10 pacientes com diagnóstico de PC hemiparéticos que haviam realizado o protocolo adulto da TCI, no período de janeiro/2009 a agosto/2014. Resultados Média de idade 24,6 (DP 9,44); MAL média pré-tratamento Quantidade (QT) = 0,72 e Qualidade (QL) = 0,68 e no pós-tratamento QT = 3,77 e QL = 3,60 (p ≤ 0,001) e WMFT média pré-tratamento = 21,03 e média pós-tratamento = 18,91 (p = 0,350). Conclusão A terapia por contensão induzida é eficaz para reverter o não uso do MSA em pacientes adultos com PC.
