Abstract
Purpose This study was aimed that the cognitive therapeutic exercises (CTE) benefit on motor function in patients with basal ganglia stroke. Methods The subjects assigned to a right hemiplegia group (RHG) and left hemiplegia group (LHG) and performed the CTE 5 times a week for 4 weeks. Manual functional test (MFT), Korean-Modified Barthel Index (K-MBI) and Sensory Function Test (SFT) were used to assess motor functions of basal ganglia. Results There were significant differences in MFT in non-hemi side (MFT_nh), K-MBI and SFT in the RHG and in K-MBI in the LHG. Conclusion The subjects with the RHG more were improved in most assessments than that of theLHG. As a whole, the CTE influenced the basal ganglia functions.
