Resumen
Introduction Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation
(PNF) is a widely used rehabilitation concept, although its
efficacy has not yet been demonstrated in stroke survivors.
The aim of this systematic review is to identify, assess and
synthesise the potential benefits of using PNF to improve
the activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life (QoL) of
individuals with stroke.
Methods and analysis A systematic electronic search
will be conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL and
PEDro. We will include randomised or quasi-randomised
controlled trials of PNF interventions conducted in stroke
survivors up to April 2017. Two review authors will
independently select relevant studies and will extract
data using the Cochrane handbook for systematic reviews
of interventions approach and the Preferred Reporting
Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols
(PRISMA-P). The methodological quality will be assessed
by using the PEDro scale. Finally, with the permitted
numeric data, we will carry out a meta-analysis.
Ethics and dissemination Ethical considerations will not
be required. Results will be disseminated in a peer-review
journal. This systematic review aims to examine the effects
of PNF (neurophysiological approach) in order to clarify
its efficacy in improving ADL and QoL in the rehabilitation
process of stroke survivors.
