A 3-day 'stroke camp' addressed chronic disease self-management elements and perceived stress of survivors of stroke and their caregivers reduced: Survey results from the 14 US camps
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke camp is a novel model that addresses CDSMP domains, which may reduce stress in PWS and CG. Larger, controlled studies are warranted.PMID:37004716 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2196468

A phase II randomised controlled trial evaluating the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an education program on speech-language pathologist' self-efficacy, and self-rated competency for counselling to support psychological wellbeing in people with post-stroke aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: The demonstrated feasibility and preliminary efficacy of this online counseling program warrant a future definitive trial.PMID:36440678 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2022.2145736

Barriers and facilitators to implementing stepped psychological care for people with aphasia: Perspectives of stroke health professionals.
Conclusion Addressing the identified barriers and facilitators to stepped psychological care will improve the viability of implementing this evidence-based framework after post-stroke aphasia. Change may be driven through specialist training for health professionals in communication support; mood assessment and treatments; modification of physical space; and accessible resources.

Audiovisual speech segmentation in post-stroke aphasia: a pilot study.
Conclusion: Our findings show that speech segmentation disorder may exist in PWA. This points to the importance of assessing and training speech segmentation after stroke. Further studies should investigate the characteristics of PWA who use visual speech cues during sentence processing. PMID: 31369358 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with speech and language training in early aphasia rehabilitation: a randomized double-blind controlled pilot study.
Conclusions: Inhibitory rTMS applied to the right frontal language homologue is not effective for all poststroke aphasia patients, although it might benefit selected patients. PMID: 23841973 [PubMed - in process]

Therapeutic interventions for aphasia initiated more than six months post stroke: a review of the evidence.
CONCLUSIONS: There is evidence to support the use of a number of treatments for chronic aphasia post stroke. Further research is required to fully support the use of these interventions and to explore the effectiveness of other aphasia interventions in the chronic stage.
