Abstract
A long-term, comparison-group outcome trial with a partial crossover design was carried out on the effects of electromyographic biofeedback (EMGBF) plus physiotherapy (PT) vs. PT alone in the treatment of the hemiplegic upper limb in stroke patients who were at least 6 mo. beyond the onset of their disability. Both the experimental and the control groups benefitted from their treatment, but EMGBF was shown to have an additional effect, both in the experimental patients, and in the control patients when they switched over to the experimental treated condition.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
