ABSTRACT

Stroke is a central nervous system disease that causes partial loss of brain function due to the sudden hematopoietic or bleeding of the brain's blood supply to the brain tissue. Currently, therapeutic interventions for stroke patients include nerve system therapy, Bobath therapy, PNF, task-oriented training, CIMT, mirror therapy, and imagination training as various ways to improve upper limb function. In addition, research on robot therapy for continuous upper extremity training programs has been actively conducted, and recently, treatments using virtual reality systems have been introduced. However, despite the introduction of several treatments, most therapists tend to stick to only the methods they have largely treated. If the therapist is able to accurately recognize each treatment method and apply the appropriate treatment method to various situations, a more qualitative treatment can be applied. Therefore, this study investigates treatments for improving the function of the upper extremities of stroke patients, and seeks to explore the advantages and disadvantages of treatment methods and better use.
