Stroke rehabilitation treatment: Evaluation of combined application of SGT-700 apparatus and fluoxetine

A combined therapy of early rehabilitation, SGT-700 apparatus and fluoxetine was used for the treatment of stroke in this study. 206 Cases of patients with stroke were selected based on the diagnostic standard. ADL of patients was evaluated with Barthel index (BI) and the nervous functional deficiency of the patients was evaluated with SSS. There were no significant differences in ADL and SSS scores among group A, B, C and D before the treatment. The scores of patients after the treatment in the different groups were compared with those before the treatment in them and the differences were significant. The comparison in ADL and SSS scores between group B and Group A, and the comparison in ADL and SSS scores between group C and group B were significantly different. The comparison in ADL and SSS scores between group D and group C was significantly different. The results suggests that the combined application of fluoxetine and the therapeutic apparatus can produce a satisfactory curative effect on patients with stroke, and improve the patients´ nervous functional deficiency and the ability of daily life.
