Summary
This case report shows that using viscoelastic materials in rehabilitation nursing may improve upper limb function and independence after stroke. Further research is needed to confirm these findings in larger patient groups.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Rehabilitation Medicine
- Biomedical Engineering
Background:
- Upper limb impairment post-stroke significantly impacts functional independence and quality of life.
- Conventional sensorimotor rehabilitation strategies are recommended, but evidence for viscoelastic materials is limited.
