AbstractStroke is a serious health problem with high incidence and mortality, and causes disability in patients. It causes complex problems, one of which is motor disorders, especially the upper extremities. Impaired motor function causes functional limitations and disabilities in stroke patients. Mirror Therapy is a new technique that is simple and able to improve upper extremity function with the concept of visual illusion. This study aimed to describe of the motoric improvement of the upper extremities after the implementation of Mirror Therapy in post-stroke patients. This study was a literature review by searching for articles from databases such as PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. The articles were chosen based on several inclusion and exclusion criteria as well as a feasibility test. The number of articles that was appropriate and reviewed was five. The results of review of the five articles showed that Mirror Therapy was proven to be able to improve the motoric skills of post-stroke patients with an average difference of 13.68 using the Fugl Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) measuring instrument. The most common type of stroke was ischemic stroke (64.6%), and it was more common in males (72.3%) with an average age of 52.84 years. Mirror Therapy could improve the upper extremity motor skills in post-stroke patients. This study is expected to be the basis of action in performing physiotherapy management, especially in improving upper extremity motor skills in post-stroke patients with Mirror Therapy interventions.Keywords : Mirror skills; Motor Therapy; Post stroke

AbstrakStroke merupakan masalah kesehatan yang penting dengan kejadian dan kematian tinggi dan menyebabkan kecacatan pada penderita. Permasalahan yang ditimbulkan kompleks, salah satunya gangguan motorik khususnya ekstremitas atas. Fungsi motorik yang terganggu menyebabkan keterbatasan fungsional dan disabilitas pada pasien stroke sehari-hari. Mirror therapy merupakan teknik baru yang sederhana dan mampu memperbaiki fungsi ekstremitas atas dengan konsep ilusi visual. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran peningkatan motorik ekstremitas atas setelah pemberian mirror therapy pada pasien pasca stroke. Penelitian menggunakan literature review dengan pencarian artikel melalui database seperti PubMed, Science Direct, dan Google Scholar. Artikel diambil berdasarkan kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi, serta dilakukan uji kelayakan. Jumlah artikel yang sesuai dan dilakukan review (n=5). Hasil literature review lima artikel menunjukkan bahwa pemberian mirror therapy terbukti dapat meningkatkan kemampuan motorik ekstremitas atas pasien pasca stroke dengan rata-rata selisih peningkatan sebesar 13,68 menggunakan alat ukur Fugl Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity (FMA-UE). Jenis stroke terbanyak yaitu stroke iskemik 64,6% dan jenis kelamin laki-laki lebih banyak 72,3% dengan karakteristik rata-rata usia 52,84 tahun. Mirror Therapy dapat meningkatkan kemampuan motorik ekstremitas atas pasien pasca stroke. Diharapkan menjadi dasar tindakan dalam melakukan manajemen fisioterapi, mengenai masalah peningkatan kemampuan motorik ekstremitas atas pada pasien pasca stroke dengan intervensi mirror therapy.Kata kunci: Kemampuan motorik; Mirror therapy; Pasca stroke
