Evaluation of a self-administered transcutaneous electrical stimulation concept for the treatment of spasticity: a randomised placebo-controlled trial.
CONCLUSIONS: Compliance was low, partly due to deviations related to the garment, complicating the interpretation of the results. Further research should focus on identifying the target population and concomitant rehabilitation strategies. CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: The evaluated concept of multifocal transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES) represents an interesting addition to the existing repertoire of treatments to alleviate muscle spasticity. The evaluated concept allows TES to be self-administered by the patient in the home environment. A more elaborate design of training activities directly related to p...

A survey of the current practice of intramuscular Botulinum toxin injections for hemiplegic shoulder pain in the UK.
CONCLUSIONS: Current UK practice of Botulinum Toxin type A injections for hemiplegic shoulder pain associated with spasticity is highly variable. There are large gaps between current practice and available evidence with regards to muscle selection and doses used. A number of areas for further investigation have been identified to progress current understanding of this intervention. Implications for rehabilitation There are wide variations in practice for this complex intervention and clinicians should consider that their individual decision-making could be based on their own beliefs rather than available evidence. Pectoral...

Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Supplements
The American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine (ACRM) offers an opportunity for members to be the guest editor of a Supplement to its journal, the Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (Archives). The goal of the ACRM supplements is to publish high quality scientific manuscripts, which are thematically organized and of interest to ACRM members and to the general readership of the Archives. We are interested in proposals in all fields of rehabilitation, but especially those of interest to the ACRM membership as indicated by the existence of special interest and networking groups for brain injury, spinal cord in...

Rehabilitees perspective on goal setting in rehabilitation - a phenomenological approach.
CONCLUSION: Rehabilitee commitment to rehabilitation can be supported with equality in communication and presence of relatives, while pain and uncertainty because of changed health limit participation in a goal setting situation. Implications for Rehabilitation Multidisciplinary rehabilitation professionals should be recommended to support the active role of a patient in the goal setting situation. Relatives are recommended to participate in goal setting situation as they are an important support for rehabilitees. Professionals should be recommended to remove obstacles that restrain patient's participation in the goal sett...

The role of Interdisciplinary Teams in Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine.
Authors: Singh R, Küçükdeveci AA, Grabljevec K, Gray A Abstract The increasing complexity of healthcare provision and medical interventions requires collaboration between large numbers of health professionals. The nature of the interactions between team members determines whether the pattern of working is described as multi-, inter- or trans-disciplinary. Such team-working is an important part of the specialty of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine. Grounded in group behaviour theory, team-working demonstrates that joint aims, trust and willingness to share knowledge, can improve patient outcomes, including mor...

Clinical study of combined mirror and extracorporeal shock wave therapy on upper limb spasticity in poststroke patients
Mirror therapy is a simple, inexpensive, and patient-oriented method that has been shown to reduce phantom sensations and pain caused by amputation and improve range of motion, speed, and accuracy of arm movement and function. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a new, reversible, and noninvasive method for the treatment of spasticity after stroke. To investigate the therapeutic effect of the combination of mirror and extracorporeal shock wave therapy on upper limb spasticity in poststroke patients. We randomly assigned 120 patients into four groups: A, B, C, and D. All groups received conventional rehabilitation t...
