Objectives :
The purpose of this study is to investigate the relation of pillow height for stroke patients.
Methods：
One hundred fourteen stroke patients were enrolled in this clinical study. The height of pillow was measured from the datum surface to occipital protuberance after 5 minutes in supine position. This study is an attempt to analyse the relation between the pillow height and the angle of cervical spine to shoulder joint, and compare the result with normal subjects.
Results：
The average height of pillow was 11.32±2.66cm, and this value is much higher than 5.0±10cm which is claimed to be the ideal height from some previous studies, and also greater than 10.1cm which is the average pillow height from other related studies. Logistic regression was used to determine the influence of various elements, and one where the group was divided into male and female seemed to show significant difference on the pillow height, where preceding diseases seemed to have no effect either on the pillow height nor the curvature of the cervical spine, which had the average value of 32.03±6.04°.
Conclusions：
This results suggest that stroke patients use higher pillows than normal subjects. More studies are required about the effect of pillow height on cerebral blood flow and stroke, and the method of measuring the pillow height and the curvature of cervical spine.
