Learning new movement skills is a critical factor in the treatment of certain motor disorders. Thus, the treatment of children with congenital atrophy of the biceps (arthrogryposis) uses an innovative technique involving autotransplantation of donor muscles, which begin to take over the role of the non-functioning biceps. After the operation, these patients are faced with a unique situation – it becomes possible to perform movement patterns that had never been performed before surgery. Execution of new movements may not always be associated solely with the effects of the surgical procedure, but may also be linked with the neuroplastic rearrangements required in the central nervous system. The present study addressed changes in the most marked neurodynamic component of cerebral activity – the α rhythm – in the context of learning new motor patterns in children after this surgery. The study showed that in some patients, significant progress in motor skills correlates with an abrupt increase in power in the EEG α range. This may indicate that the α rhythm may also be a biomarker and predictor of the efficacy of muscle autotransplant surgery in the treatment of arthrogryposis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
