Abstract

|
| Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is used for the rehabilitation of motor function after stroke. The aim of this review was to investigate its effect on persons-reported outcomes of health status (PROsHS) compared with conventional therapy. The study was a systematic review and meta-analysis registered in PROSPERO (CRD42019142279). Five databases PubMED, PEDro, OTSeeker, CENTRAL and Web of Science were searched. Randomized controlled trials were included if they assessed PROsHS. Mean scores of PROsHS, sample size and dose of CIMT and control groups interventions were extracted. The result was analyzed using qualitative and quantitative syntheses. Nine studies (n = 558) were included in the review. From the result, CIMT significantly improved PROsHS postintervention. However, postintervention, there was no statistically significant difference between groups for the upper limb [Mean difference (MD) = 6.67, 95% confidence interval (CI) = -2.09 to 15.44, P = 0.14] and the lower limb (MD = -1.86, 95% CI = -16.29 to 12.57, P = 0.80). Similarly, there was no statistically significant percentage of variation across studies, upper limb (I-2 = 0%, P = 0.92) and lower limb (I-2 = 0%, P = 0.86). For the lower limb at follow-up, there was no statistically significant difference between groups (MD = 0.97, 95% CI = -13.59 to 15.53, P = 0.90). When upper and lower limbs studies were pooled, there was no statistically significant difference between groups postintervention (MD = 0.22, 95% CI = -0.15 to 0.58, P = 0.24) and at follow-up (MD = 0.03, 95% CI = -0.43 to 0.49, P = 0.90). CIMT improves PROsHS after stroke. However, it is not superior to conventional therapy based on the current literature. |
