Abstract

Background: Motor Imagery training is a cognitive process in which an internal representation of amovementis activated in working memory. The movement is mentally rehearsed, without any physical activity. Task-specific training emphasizes the repetitive practice of skilled movement to enhance functional abilities in Hemiparesis. Objectives: To investigate whether Task Specific Training preceded by Motor Imagery or Task Specific Training alone was more effective for facilitating Sit to Stand in patients with Stroke. Methods: Thirty male patients with Stroke were selected from the Cairo University Outpatient Clinic; the median age of participants was 54. 5 3. 51 years and they were divided equally into two groups. Patients in study group A (n = 15) received Motor Imagery training for 15 minutes followed by Task Specific Training for 45 minutes, as well as a selected physical therapy program 3 times per week for 6 weeks. The control group B (n = 15) received Task Specific Training for 45 minutes, as well as a selected physical therapy program 3 times per week for 6 weeks. The Fugl-Meyer section of the lower extremity (FMA-LE), Timed up and go test (TUG), and Biodex Balance system were assessed before and after treatment. Results: The results were highly significant for all variables including FMA-LE, TUG and Biodex Balance system in favor of the study group, post treatment. (P = 0. 0004, P = 0. 0001 and P = 0. 0001, respectively). Conclusions: Motor Imagery training results in greater improvement in Sit to Stand ability when used in conjunction with Task Specific Training, rather than Task Specific Training alone.
