Abstract

|
Objective: In this study, we have tried to find out the effect of improved postural alignment in sitting posture and trunk control through somatosensory training.
Methods: We selected single left hemiplegia with stroke patients in hospital, who have a problem with visual neglect and somatosensory function. To compare result of before and after, we used several assessment tools such as albert cancellation test, star cancellation test, house and clock test for visual neglect, somatosensory test and total TIS, static TIS, dynamic TIS and coordinative TIS. We applied somatosensory training focused on functional activity.
Researchs: We reached out results as follows. 1) We compared changes in before and after training and found that there was relationship among assessment outcomes. Especially, cutaneous sense, performance time of albert cancellation test and cancellation test, and static TIS showed relationship in patient.
Conclusion: Somatosensory training influenced on visual perception, postural alignment and on trunk control. Especially, somatosensory training offered static trunk control ability more than before.
