Escala de análise motora: desenvolvimento de um protocolo de controle motor para hemiplegia

Abstract

The purpose of this study is the development of a protocol of motor control more sensitive and quantified and analyze its viability in hemiplegics patients. This study was accomplished in 5 (five) hemiplegics patients of “Universidade de Cruz Alta”, between 50 to 80 years of age. The work feasibility has 3 (three) examiners who checked over and applied the protocol. The use of protocol by the examiners presented an important faithfulness; because according to an analysis of variation there were no statistically significant differences (p<0,85;0,71;0,19; 0,93; 0,75; respectively) in the measure of motor control in patients (cases 1,2,3,4 and 5). In relation of scale comparison whit the closeness and distant tests, the connection was significant, mainly whit the distant test, showing that the distant return is more important and that there was a general improvement in the patient, since the closeness movement can be compensated by the trunk. Due to this, the Scale of Motor Evaluation is sensitive to measure differences in the motor control of people and showing that different examiners can use the protocol whithout having a subjectivity and qualitative analysis beyond getting an analysis about the efficiency of treatment.
