Abstract：Objective To explore the effects of image therapy(MT)combined with proprioceptive neuromuscular fa-cilitation(PNF)on limb function recovery in stroke patients with hemiplegia.Methods 68 patients with hemiplegia were se-lected from June 2022 to December 2023 and divided into observation group(36 cases)and control group(32 cases)accord-ing to treatment methods.The observation group was treated with PNF combined with MT,and the control group was treated with PNF for 6 weeks.After treatment,the efficacy of the two groups was compared.Limb function[Fugl-Meyer Motor Func-tion Rating Scale(FMA),Motor Function State Scale(MSS)],walking balance ability[Berg Balance Scale(BBS),10 m Maximum walking speed],neurological function[National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)],and activity of daily living[Modified Barthel Index(MBI),Functional Independence Measure(FIM)].Results After treatment,the total ef-fective rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group(P＜0.05).After treatment,FMA-upper limb,FMA-lower limb,MSS,BBS,MBI,FIM scores and 10 m maximum walking speed in observation group were higher than those in control group,and NIHSS scores were lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion MT combined with PNF has a significant effect on the recovery of limb function in stroke patients with hemiplegia,and can effectively im-prove the limb motor function,balance ability,nerve function and the ability of daily living.
