文摘目的 探讨前庭电刺激对脑卒中患者侧倾功能障碍的疗效。方法 2023年2月至10月,选取南京医科大学第一附属医院脑卒中侧倾患者30例,随机分为对照组(n=15)和试验组(n=15)。对照组接受常规康复训练与前庭伪电刺激,试验组接受常规康复训练与前庭电刺激,共2周。干预前后分别采用侧倾行为评估量表(SCP)、主观视觉垂直感知(SVV)、线段划消试验(LCT)、星消试验(SCT)、Berg平衡量表(BBS)、Holden功能性步行分级(FAC)和Barthel指数(BI)进行评估。结果 干预后,除对照组SVV方向性和稳定性以及SCT外,两组其余指标均改善(|t|> 2.461, Z> 3.000, P <0.05),且试验组SCP、SVV稳定性、LCT和FAC均优于对照组(|t|> 2.189, Z=-2.862, P <0.05);干预前后差值比较,除LCT外,试验组均大于对照组(|t|> 2.382, P <0.05)。相关性分析显示,SCP与SVV方向性和稳定性、SCT、BBS、BI评分以及FAC均相关(|r|> 0.381, P <0.05)。结论 前庭电刺激能改善脑卒中患者的侧倾、平衡、步行功能和日常生活活动能力,可能与改善空间认知功能障碍,特别是垂直感知有关。
