Effect of imagery perspective on occupational performance after stroke / Dawn M. NILSEN in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 66/3 (mai-juin 2012)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 66/3 (mai-juin 2012) . - p. 320-329 Titre : Effect of imagery perspective on occupational performance after stroke : a randomized controlled trial Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Dawn M. NILSEN ; Glen Gillen ; et al. ; Theresa DIRUSSO Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p. 320-329 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Accident cérébrovasculaire  Psychothérapie Résumé : OBJECTIVE. This preliminary study sought to determine whether the imagery perspective used during mental practice (MP) differentially influenced performance outcomes after stroke. METHOD. Nineteen participants with unilateral subacute stroke (9 men and 10 women, ages 28–77) were randomly allocated to one of three groups. All groups received 30-min occupational therapy sessions 2*/wk for 6 wk. Experimental groups received MP training in functional tasks using either an internal or an external perspective; the control group received relaxation imagery training. Participants were pre- and posttested using the Fugl-Meyer Motor Assessment (FMA), the Jebsen–Taylor Test of Hand Function (JTTHF), and the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). RESULTS. At posttest, the internal and external experimental groups showed statistically similar improvements on the FMA and JTTHF (p < .05). All groups improved on the COPM (p < .05). CONCLUSION. MP combined with occupational therapy improves upper-extremity recovery after stroke. MP does not appear to enhance self-perception of performance. This preliminary study suggests that imagery perspective may not be an important variable in MP interventions.

Using mirror therapy in the home environment / Dawn M. NILSEN in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 68/3 (mai-juin 2014)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 68/3 (mai-juin 2014) Titre : Using mirror therapy in the home environment : a case report Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Dawn M. NILSEN ; Theresa DIRUSSO Année de publication : 2014 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Accident cérébrovasculaire  Réhabilitation  Mouvement corporel Résumé : OBJECTIVE: Mirror therapy (MT) is a potential intervention to improve function after stroke. How to apply this intervention in practice is not clear. This case report illustrates the feasibility and effectiveness of a self-administered home-based MT program. METHOD: A home-based MT program was practiced over 5 wk. The participant was encouraged to use MT for 30 min 5*/wk. Therapist contact occurred 1*/wk to monitor performance. An independent evaluator administered three outcome measures pre- and postintervention: Upper Extremity Sensory and Pain sections of the Fugl-Meyer Assessment; Jebsen-Taylor Test of Hand Function, and the Manual Ability Measure-20. RESULTS: The participant engaged in a mean of 39.23 (+7.44) min of MT per day and used a variety of the recommended activities. Change scores indicated improvement on all of the included outcome measures. CONCLUSION: This case report suggests that a predominantly self-administered home-based MT program is feasible and effective at improving function after stroke.
