Adding electrical stimulation during standard rehabilitation after stroke to improve motor function. A systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionElectrical sensory input can contribute to routine rehabilitation to improve early post-stroke lower-extremity impairment and late motor function, with no change in spasticity. Prolonged periods of sensory stimulation such as TENS combined with activity can have beneficial effects on impairment and function after stroke.

Assessing and treating pain associated with stroke, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury and spasticity. Evidence and recommendations from the Italian Consensus conference on Pain in Neurorehabilitation.
ian Consensus Conference on Pain in Neurorehabilitation (ICCPN) Abstract Pain is a common and disabling symptom in patients with stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS), cerebral palsy (CP), spinal cord injury (SCI) and other conditions associated with spasticity, but data on its prevalence, and natural history, as well as guidelines on its assessment and treatment in the field of neurorehabilitation, are largely lacking. The Italian Consensus Conference on Pain in Neurorehabilitation (ICCPN) searched and evaluated current evidence on the frequency, evolution, predictors, assessment, and pharmacological and non-pharmacolo...

A cohort study of the association between psychosocial factors and pain in patients with Spinal Cord Injury and Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Psychosocial factors are associated with pain early after stroke and SCI. Psychosocial factors are also associated with pain outcomes several months after stroke and SCI. This highlights the importance of psychosocial factors in both of these populations and their relationship with pain outcomes. PMID: 31796705 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Current practice of outpatient rehabilitation services in patients with mobility-impaired paralysis due to stroke or spinal cord injury: a qualitative interview study in Germany
CONCLUSION: Areas of improvement identified focused on: setting rehabilitation goals towards participation, training therapists on evidence-based treatments and shared decision-making, updating the outpatient service catalogue, and implementing coordination actions. Implementation of these recommendations should be evaluated.PMID:37732606 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2023.2259301

Measures used to assess impact of providing care among informal caregivers of persons with stroke, spinal cord injury, or amputation: a systematic review.
Conclusions: There is a wide variety of impact of caregiving measures. The present study provided a detailed overview of what is known about clinimetric characteristics of 18 different measures repeatedly used in research. The overview provides clinicians a guidance of appropriate measure selection. PROSPERO registration: CRD42018094796 IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION Clinicians should be aware that information about measure development and clinimetric properties for most measures used to assess impact of informal caregiving is incomplete. Most supporting evidence was found for the Zarit Burden Interview Short Form, Caregi...

End-user and clinician perspectives on the viability of wearable functional electrical stimulation garments after stroke and spinal cord injury.
Conclusions: The insights obtained from end-users and clinicians provide guidelines to optimize the development of novel FES-garments, and strategies for bringing the device to the market. The themes identified can serve to inform other rehabilitation and assistive technology developers with processes and ideas on how to meet these groups' needs. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION Participants with neurological paralysis have interest and critical views on new rehabilitation and assistive technology, and the repercussions of using new technologies to address their function, health and wellbeing. The FES-garment design present...

Effect of Wheelchair Stroke Pattern on Upper Extremity Muscle Fatigue
Conclusions This data demonstrates that the SC wheelchair propulsion pattern appears to be more fatiguing to shoulder muscles than the P propulsion pattern. However, more data would need to be collected to find a significant difference.
