Abstract:
This paper explores the effects of magnetic induction on motion rehabilitation in stroke patients. The extreme low frequency (16 Hz) and low intensity (20 mT) pulsed magnetic field was applied on the affected brain side of 8 stoke patients. The magnetic fieldinduced electroencephalography (EEG) signals in resting state were collected and analyzed. The JebsenTaylor hand function test (JTT) behavioral parameters combined with the simplified FuglMeyer motion function and the modified Barthel index rating scales were utilized to evaluate the rehabilitation effect. The experimental results show that after magnetic induction, the scores of the rating scales were significantly increased and the power of the high frequency rhythm increased upon the motion cortex. The study shows that the magnetic induction technique has positive effect on the rehabilitation of the stroke patient and could be combined with the traditional rehabilitation therapy to assist the neural rehabilitation.
