Abstract
Stroke shows its impact on ability to function independently and on overall quality of life. Along with the motor functions, sensation is also impaired in half of the stroke patients which shows long term affect to use the upper limb in daily life.
The sensory information enters the spinal cord through the dorsal roots. Sensory signals are then carried to higher centres via ascending pathways from one of two systems: they are anterolateral spinothalamic system or the dorsal column-medial lemniscal system.
Somatosensory cortex: the most complex processing of sensory information occurs in the somatosensory cortex, which is divided in to three main divisions primary somatosensory cortex, secondary somatosensory cortex, and posterior parietal cortex. A few studies have reported that static stretching is more effective than neural slump stretching in increasing the range of motion.
Talking about active sensory assessment in which patients actively touch the object and feel it in which proprioception and tactile information are integrated during intended hand movement. As active touch is an essential element in the process of tactile learning after stroke.
In a study about 69% of stroke participants have loss of sensory function in the more affected hand, and 44% in the less affected hand and 20% in both hands according to STI test.
SenAudi Kit is effective in assessing sensory impairments of post-stroke patients of all durations.
