Abstract

To determine whether misperception of the subjective visual vertical (SVV) underlies balance difficulties in hemiplegic patients. Descriptive study, using a convenience sample. Department of physical medicine of a university hospital. Thirty inpatients with hemiplegia after a hemispheric stroke during the 3 previous months. Not applicable. The SVV was tested while subjects sat in a dark room and were asked to adjust a luminous line to the vertical position. Mean SVV deviation and uncertainty, defined as the standard deviation, were calculated for 8 trials. Balance was assessed by the Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke (PASS) and while patients sat on a laterally rocking platform placed on a Satel force platform. The mean body position and the instability score (Lx), calculated as the length of the course of the center of pressure, were recorded. Functional outcome was also evaluated by the FIM instrument. An abnormal SVV was recorded for 20 of 30 patients. Balance (ie, PASS, Lx) and FIM correlated significantly with SVV tilt (P<.001, P=.01, and P<.001, respectively) and with uncertainty (PASS, P=.006; FIM, P=.003). Verticality misperception was related to poor balance and might be an important element in the assessment of con...Continue Reading

Antifungals (ASM)

An antifungal, also known as an antimycotic medication, is a pharmaceutical fungicide or fungistatic used to treat and prevent mycosis such as athlete's foot, ringworm, candidiasis, cryptococcal meningitis, and others. Discover the latest research on antifungals here.

Brain Ischemia

Brain ischemia is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. Discover the latest research on brain ischemia here.

Acute Stroke

A stroke occurs when blood supply to the brain is interrupted depriving the brain of oxygen and nutrients. This feed focuses cerebrovascular accidents including ischemic and paralytic stroke.
