O Comprometimento Motor Ipsilesional em pacientes pós-AVC e as Especificidades dos Hemisférios Cerebrais. 2018. 30f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Fisioterapia) - Faculdade de Ciências da Saúde do Trairi, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Santa Cruz, 2018.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/34086The objectives of the study were to analyze if there is compromise in the reach and grip on the ipsilesional side and to verify if the group of lesion in the left hemisphere has bigger deficits in the reach, and the group of lesion in the right hemisphere greater deficits in the grip, in order to correlate the hemisphere affected with the observed damage. Patients with chronic strokes (n: 14) participated in the study, forming two groups, the lesion in the left hemisphere (n: 6) and the lesion in the right (n: 8) that underwent a single evaluation. The instruments used were Fugl-Meyer, Box and block test (BBT), Reach Performance Scale-RPS, Manual Dynamometry and Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). BBT demonstrated a difference between the ipsilateral side and the affected side in both groups. In the near Reach-Target there was no difference between the affected side and the less affected side in both cerebral hemispheres, whereas in the Reach-target distant presented statistical difference. Between the two groups the BBT did not present significance regarding the scores obtained in the manual grip evaluation. In the Reach, in the near target and distant target and also in the dynamometry it was observed correlations already expected, in relation to the greater degree of commitment to the contralesional side. As a conclusion, it was not possible to verify the relationship between the commitments and the hemispheric specializations and the hypothesis of a greater degree of impairment of reach in individuals with left lesion and greater prehension deficit in those who suffered the injury in the right hemisphere.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Stroke.
