Stroke（中风）
- Orthopaedic Implications:- it is estimated that 50% of hemiplegics can be improved by surgical interventions and can achieve brace free function;
- pts who have had a stroke may cont to improve upto 6 months after their vascular event;
- pts w/ traumatic brain injury may improve upto 18 mo after injury
- to walk independently, the hemiplegic requires:
- adequate balance to stand independently;
- hip flexion to advance the limb;
- normal strength of uninvolved side;
- normal proprioception;
- if the patient does not have these requirements, walking may not be a realistic goal;
- CVA and hip fracture: (see femoral neck and intertroch fractures);
- in the report by Youm T, et al, the authors evaluated 829 patients who sustained a hip fracture;
- of these patients 7.3% had a history ov a CVA;
- the fracture was on the hemiplegic side in 87%;
- authors theorized that due to gluteus medius weakness, patients lean toward the hemiplegic side, increasing the likehood of fracture;
- 89% of patients had a CVA one year or more before hip fracture;
- one year mortality was 11%;
- there was an equal predominance of left and right hemiplegia (ie, there was no evidence that left sided strokes increased risk of hip fracture due to possible spacial disorientation);
- Effect of previous cerebrovascular accident on outcome after hip fracture.
- Managment of Upper Extremity Deformities:
- shoulder:
- ref: Outcomes of the Biceps Suspension Procedure for Painful Inferior Glenohumeral Subluxation in Hemiplegic Patients
- flexor origin slide:
- indicated for patients w/ finger flexion contracture but maintenance of active grasp;
- about 4-5 cm of excursion in flexor tendons is determined by the wrist motion;
- if fingers are contracted into the palm w/ wrist extension but are relaxed when wrist is is flexed, then about 4-5 cm in length are required to release contracture;
- this can be accomplished by the flexor origin release or the flexor slide;
- intramuscular injection of botulinum toxin:
- ref: Intramuscular Injection of Botulinum Toxin for the Treatment of Wrist and Finger Spasticity after a Stroke.

- Intramuscular botulinum toxin-A reduces hemiplegic shoulder pain: a randomized, double-blind, comparative study versus intraarticular triamcinolone acetonide.
- Management of Lower Extremity Deformities:
- knee:
- w/ the hemiplegic, knee and ankle can be immobilized w/ an AKFO and can still ambulate, but they need some hip flexion to clear leg during ambulation;
- foot:
- ankle equinus may cause hallux valgus deformity;
- the underlying equinus deformity should be corrected before an attempted correction of bunion (MTP fusion);
- AFO w/ a wire spring orthosis;
- biomechanics: a mild dorsiflexion assist device and mild medial and lateral control;
- useful in the stroke pt with weak dorsiflexors of foot and unable to keep his foot up to clear the ground in swing;
- reference:
- Adult-onset hemiplegia: changes in gait after muscle-balancing procedures to correct the equinus deformity.
- equinovarus deformity - references:
