摘要：

Stroke is a common and disabling illness, adversely affecting the quality of life of hundreds of people each year. While there are many therapeutic approaches to stroke patient rehabilitation, encouraging patients to adopt "reflex-inhibiting" patterns of posture is a widely advocated strategy for helping patients to avoid complications of hemiplegia such as spasticity and contractures. However, while the central role of nurses in thus helping patients is recognized, the influence of posture on recovery from stroke has never been evaluated. Prior to undertaking such an evaluative study, texts on stroke patient care were reviewed to clarify the received view about the recommended positioning for patients with hemiplegia. Consensus on some issues was evident (such as positioning the patient with the affected shoulder protracted, spine straight, fingers extended and avoiding external rotation of the affected hip). However, opinion was divided on others and a number of potentially important aspects were ill-covered. This paper integrates a summary of the findings of this review with the physiological rationale for the recommendations. The main areas of agreement are highlighted and issues as yet unanswered are raised for further consideration.
