Estimating the Proportion of Heart Failure Admissions Potentially Eligible for Hospital at Home
Hospital at home (HaH) is an emerging care model where patients requiring hospitalization receive inpatient-level care at home. Services include twice daily nursing visits with laboratory collection, intravenous medications, patient education, and other acute care services. Current regulations also require daily physician or advanced practice provider visits and other hospital services such as radiology and physical therapy. Programs sometimes require patients to have a certain level of independence or a caregiver to provide support between nursing visits. (Source: Journal of Cardiac Failure)

Can cerebellar theta-burst stimulation improve balance function and gait in stroke patients? A randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Physical therapy is able to improve the functional recovery in hemiplegic patients after stroke, but the cerebellar iTBS can facilitate and accelerate the recovery, particularly the balance function and gait. Cerebellar iTBS could be an efficient and facilitative treatment for patients with stroke.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Cerebellar iTBS provides a convenient and efficient treatment modality for functional recovery of patients with stroke, especially balance function and gait.PMID:38577727 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.24.08307-2 (Source: European Journal of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine)
