| Core Tip |
Electromyographic biofeedback demonstrates significant dual benefits in stroke rehabilitation, improving motor function (Fugl-Meyer Assessment: d = 0.79-0.82) and reducing anxiety (Hamilton Anxiety Scale: d = -0.75) compared to conventional therapy alone. The mechanism involves Hebbian plasticity through real-time visual/auditory feedback, creating a virtuous cycle of neuroplastic change and psychological empowerment. Despite implementation challenges (5000-15000 startup costs), the 2-3 weeks faster functional recovery yields 8000-12000 per-patient savings, supporting integration into value-based care models. Optimal protocols involve 45-minute sessions targeting agonist-antagonist pairs 4 times weekly for 8-12 weeks, with future research needed for personalized application in severe stroke cases. |
