A study was conducted to test the effectiveness of a newly designed dynamic splint in reducing the passive component of hypertonus. Splinting and P-ROM exercise were compared among eight elderly subjects matched by age and sex with hemiparesis, one year after cerebrovascular accident. Spring-weighted scale measurements of the passive force of the wrist from 0 degrees flexion/extension towards flexion were used as dependent measures. Measurements were taken three days per week for six weeks. Data demonstrated that a significant reduction of hypertonus occurred among the splinted group but not the P-ROM group. A further comparison with previously published data on the effects of static splinting demonstrated that dynamic splinting led to a greater reduction of hypertonus than static splinting and P-ROM exercises.
进行了一项研究，以测试一种新设计的动态夹板在降低张力亢进被动成分方面的有效性。在八名年龄和性别匹配、患有偏瘫且脑血管意外发生一年后的老年受试者中，比较了夹板固定和被动关节活动度锻炼的效果。采用弹簧秤测量从0度屈伸到屈曲时手腕的被动力，作为相关测量指标。每周测量三天，持续六周。数据表明，夹板固定组的张力亢进显著降低，而被动关节活动度锻炼组则未降低。与先前发表的关于静态夹板效果的数据进一步比较表明，动态夹板比静态夹板和被动关节活动度锻炼能更有效地降低张力亢进。
