Ipsilateral Motor Deficit in Patients with Unilateral Brain Damage

Recently, several investigations revealed that after unilateral brain damage, movement abnormalities were exposed on the ipsilateral side as well as the upper extremity contralateral to the damaged hemisphere. Even the motor abilities had significantly recovered from ipsilateral motor deficits on not only simple sensoriomotor function, also clinical assessments since subacute stage, although could not completely returned. Such motor deficits were detected in a diversity of motor tasks depending on the interhemispheric specialization, further in clinical evaluation and a daily of activities. In the clinical features, muscular weakness, sensory loss and impaired manual dexterity were observed. In a laboratory experiment, there were increasing evidences that the kinematic processing deficits was founded in various-specific motor tasks, which ranged from simple basic element to complex tasks, such as tapping task, step-tracking, goal directional aiming task, and iso(and non-)directional interlimb coordination. In the point of view, the manifest understanding in related to ipsilateral deficits provide the clinicians with an important information for scientific management about brain injured patient's prognosis and therapeutic guidelines.
