Objective : This research was to identify the effect that is given to the functions of a patient after an acute patient has gone through self exercise program training to continue exercising on own.
Methods : From the 22 acute brain damage patients who have been diagnosed for less than a month, 11 patients were trained for self exercise program and the other 11 were not trained. The first 11 patients as targets executed self exercise program and the rest of the 11 patients have executed rehabilitation treatment; moreover, each patient`s Manual Function Test (MFT) was re-evaluated. the MFT score rising difference of Rt. Hemiplegia patient and Lt. Hemiplegia patient was analyzed after using the independent sample T black.
Results : The difference in the score of Lt. Hemiplegia patients before and after the self exercise program scored an average of 3.2 to 7.8, increasing by 4.6. The group of targets who have executed the self exercise program had a bigger rise in the average score. This showed significant difference statistically. The difference in the score of Rt. Hemiplegia patients before and after the self exercise program scored an average of 6.83 to 8.67, increasing by 1.84. The group of targets who have executed the self exercise program had a bigger rise in the average score. However, it did not show a significant difference statistically.
Conclusion : The Lt. Hemiplegia patients who have executed self exercise program for acute stroke patients had significant difference in MFT score before and after the program. Thus, when acute Lt. Hemiplegia patients execute the program, it is identified that the program helps in improving the function. However, In the case of Rt. Hemiplegia patients, there was a difference in the average score but it was not a significant difference. It is important to check the whether or not the self exercise program was properly executed.
