Hand Rehabilitation following Middle Cerebral Artery Stroke

The term “Middle cerebral artery stroke” refers to the sudden onset of a focal neurologic deficit caused by a brain infarction or ischemia in the territory supplied by the MCA. The Middle cerebral artery is the largest cerebral artery by far, and it is the vessel most commonly affected by a cerebrovascular accident. MCA strokes are more common in people who have already had a stroke. Its symptoms include unilateral weakness and/or numbness, facial droop, and speech deficits ranging from mild dysarthria to global aphasia.

It may take some time to recover from an MCA stroke, especially if the entire MCA was blocked, resulting in a large stroke. Long-term recovery and rehabilitation could take months or years. However, with extensive and consistent physical therapy, a good recovery is possible.

With this type of disease, rehabilitation is frequently required to help the brain relearn skills that have been affected by the stroke.

The SIFREHAB-1.0 consists of activities and therapy designed to assist your brain in adapting to the injury caused by a Middle Cerebral Artery Stroke.

This Portable Rehabilitation Robotic Gloves: SIFREHAB-1.0 is intended to assist patients who are unable to attend physical therapy sessions at the hospital in performing their own rehabilitative training safely and independently. As a result, they can fully recover from a stroke.

The device is used to promote full recovery from stroke, hand trauma, cerebral palsy, plastic surgery caused by stroke (cerebral ischemia, cerebral hemorrhage), hand dysfunction, and brain injury. As a result, it is ideal for MCA patients.

Among the device’s various applications, it only provides Mirror therapy training and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) training. Dressing, self-feeding, bathing, laundry, and/or meal preparation are examples of the latter.

In a nutshell, the SIFREHAB-1.0 detects weak conscious hand activity and then boosts it to complete the intended hand movement, thus speeding up the recovery process.

A stroke (regardless of type) is always a medical emergency. If appropriate healthcare is not promoted, it can result in permanent brain damage.

One of these strokes is a Middle Cerebral Artery Stroke, which necessitates extensive physical therapy and extensive rehabilitation activities. The SIFREHAB-1.0 may be the best device for such a lengthy recovery process.
