To analyze the effectiveness of the developed technique of «3D audio-visualization» in restoring the motor function of the upper limb in the acute period of stroke.
The study included 20 patients in the acute period of stroke. All patients had impaired motor function of the upper limb in the form of paresis of the proximal muscle groups. The control group was enrolled according to standard methods. The treatment was well tolerated, there were no adverse effects.
In the study group, a more complete restoration of the motor function of the upper limb is observed compared with the control group. There is also a positive effect of the proposed technique on patients in the acute period of stroke.
The prospective and cost effective technique is suggested. It can be also used by the patient in the outpatient rehabilitation phase.
