Effects of Game-Based Integrative Neuromuscular Training Combined with Conventional Rehabilitation on Children with Spastic Hemiplegia by LU Wenqing, WU Zhihua, GAO Jinghui, LIU Wenjin, HUANG Yan

“…Before and after treatment, BioNeuro biofeedback instrument and Flexcomp Infiniti System surface electromyography analysis system were used to measure and calculate the root mean square (RMS) values of the quadriceps, hamstrings, gastrocnemius and adductor muscles on the affected side under passive stretching; Microfet2 handheld muscle strength tester was used to measure the muscle strength of the hip flexors, hip extensors, knee flexors, knee extensors, ankle dorsiflexors and ankle plantar flexors on the affected side; Gross Motor Function Measure 88 (GMFM-88) scores in dimensions D and E were used to evaluate the gross motor function; Berg Balance Scale (BBS) was used to evaluate the balance function; 10-meter walk test (10MWT) was used to evaluate the walking ability.Results(1) Lower limb RMS: compared with those before treatment, the RMS values of the hamstrings, quadriceps, gastrocnemius and adductor muscles in the affected limb under passive stretching decreased significantly in both groups after treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). …”
