Abstract: Objective To investigate the effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation(TMS) in patients with cerebral infarction.Methods Sixty patients who suffered cerebral infarction were assigned to experiment group and control group(30 cases each group). Both groups received rehabilitation therapy. Experiment group received TMS. Ten days were one period of treatment. Fugl-Meyer scores, Barthel Index, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) scores were recorded before treatment and after treatment.Results NIHSS scores:experiment group decreased from 6.57±2.66 to 4.01±2.83, control group decreased from 6.29±3.00 to5.10±2.43; Barthel Index:experiment group increased from 47.33±14.31 to 60.83±18.53, control group increased from 45.50±13.91 to53.67±15.97; Fugl-Meyer scores:experiment group increased from 38.20±24.01 to 58.40±29.57, control group increased from 37.53 ±23.8 to 49.60±29.77. Before treatment, there was no statistic difference between two groups on NIHSS scores, Barthel Index and Fugl-Meyer scores(P>0.05). After treatment, there was significant difference between two groups on NIHSS scores, Barthel Index and Fugl-Meyer scores (P<0.01).Conclusion TMS can improve limb function in patients with cerebral infarction and increase the ability of daily living.
