We introduce the contents of the ninth international biophilia rehabilitation Academy (IBRA) holding on 29-30 September 2011. Prof. Mieczyslaw Pokorski, Medical Research Center of Polish Academy of Sciences had assumed the position of chairman of the 9th IBRC.
We introduced contents characteristic of our studies, besides an announcement of each country society. The author as a person in charge of the clinical study reported as the first one. We examined Brain activity using the functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) by performing motivative and passive exercise (PEX) on the lower extremities, including the Randomized Control Trial for the gropes.
Focusing on each encephalic motor area (the encephalic place which manages a movement), we compared the result depending on official multiplex approval of the change of OxyHb (hemoglobin which is carrying oxygen). As for comparing passive movement performed by a physiotherapist and motivative exercise, the motivative exercise for knee bending and stretching exercises shows brain broadly active (P<0.05).
We summarized that the motivative exercise enabled to substitute for the passive exercise by the physical therapist.
When said simply, we could show the motivative exercise can substitute for the passive exercise. Other researches are also interesting.
Please read the proceedings shown in the reference1) for details.
