Effectiveness of Syrebo's Glove Rehabilitation Program in a Patient With Middle Cerebral Artery Infarct: A Case Report.

In India, stroke is a significant health concern, with an estimated prevalence of around 1.54% in adults over 20 years old. The incidence of stroke in India varies regionally but is generally high due to factors like hypertension and lifestyle changes. Ischemic strokes comprise the majority, particularly in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory. MCA stroke presents with diverse symptoms such as weakness, speech difficulties, and vision problems, emphasizing the need for comprehensive rehabilitation. Physiotherapy plays a vital role in addressing these challenges, focusing on strength, coordination, mobility, and independence through tailored interventions. Additionally, soft robotic gloves, such as Syrebo's rehabilitation, offer promising advancements in neurorehabilitation by enhancing motor recovery and functional abilities, particularly in improving grip strength and hand functionality, thus improving outcomes for stroke patients. This case describes a 66-year-old female presenting with sudden left-sided weakness, slurred speech, and facial deviation indicative of bilateral MCA territory infarct. After admission requiring ventilation and medication, imaging confirmed the diagnosis. Following stabilization, she underwent neurophysiotherapy for rehabilitation. Neurological examination revealed deficits in muscle tone, reflexes, cranial nerve function, language, and swallowing. Outcome measures indicated progress in rehabilitation. The case underscores the significance of timely diagnosis and personalized rehabilitation in optimizing outcomes for MCA territory stroke patients.
