Background and purpose: stroke causes damage to the sensory and motor systems and motor and cognitive disabilities due to impaired blood supply to an area in the brain. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of home-based exercise with overload, functional independence, balance, walking and electromyographic changes in acute stroke patients.
method: The statistical population included stroke patients referred to the clinic of Shohdai Eshair Hospital in Khorramabad. The statistical sample consisted of 24 acute stroke patients who were randomly divided into two groups (intervention and control). In two stages of pre-test and post-test (after 12 weeks of training), leaf balance test, measurement of functional independence, dolly walking test and electromyography examination of tibialis anterior muscle and quadriceps femoris muscle were performed in both groups and using independent t-test and SPSS version 26 software was used to analyze the data at a significance level of 0.05p.
Findings: in the balance examination with a significant level (p=0.0001), in the walking test with a significant level (p=0.0001), and in the functional independence test with a significant level (p=0.0001) In the experimental group, the situation was better. Electromyography examination of quadriceps muscle nerve with a significant level (p=0.01)) and tibialis anterior muscle nerve with a significant level (p=0.01) revealed that the muscle amplitude of the control group was better.
Results: The results of this study showed that in addition to clinical exercises, home-based exercises using a weight or weight cuff improve independent performance, walking, and balance in acute stroke patients, which is associated with positive changes in muscle electromyography.
