High-intensity interval training in stroke rehabilitation.
The objectives of this narrative review are to (1) propose a framework for categorizing HIT protocols; (2) summarize the safety and effectiveness evidence of HIT among healthy adults and people with heart disease and stroke; (3) discuss theoretical mechanisms, protocol selection, and safety considerations for poststroke HIT; and (4) provide directions for future research.

Does participation in standardized aerobic fitness training during inpatient stroke rehabilitation promote engagement in aerobic exercise after discharge? A cohort study.
Conclusion: Participation in an inpatient fitness program did not increase participation in physical activity after discharge in individuals with stroke. A new model of care that encourages patients to pursue physical activity after discharge and reduces the potential barriers to participation should be developed. PMID: 24722043 [PubMed - in process]

Accuracy of Emergency Medical Services-Reported Last Known Normal Times in Patients Suspected With Acute Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— EMS-reported LKN times were largely congruent with neurologist-determined times. Focused EMS training regarding wake-up stroke symptoms may further improve accuracy.

Feasibility of dual-task gait training for community-dwelling adults after stroke: a case series.
We examined single and dual-task performance in four different dual-task combinations at baseline, after 6 and 12 sessions, and if possible, at 1-month followup. Feasibility was assessed by asking participants to rate mental and physical fatigue, perceived difficulty, anxiety, and fear of falling at the end of each session. Five of the seven participants demonstrated reduced dual-task cost in gait speed in at least one of the dual-task combinations after the intervention. Analysis of the patterns of interference in the gait and cognitive tasks suggested that the way in which the participants allocated their attention betwe...

Combining rTMS and Task-Oriented Training in the Rehabilitation of the Arm after Stroke: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.
Conclusions. Preliminary evidence suggests that an rTMS protocol potent enough to induce transient increases in cortical excitability of the lesioned hemisphere is feasible but did not show promising results as an adjunct to task-specific training. This trial is registration with Clinical Trials.gov NCT00850408. PMID: 24363954 [PubMed]

Body weight-supported treadmill training is no better than overground training for individuals with chronic stroke: a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSIONS: Future studies should investigate the effectiveness of intensive interventions of durations greater than 10 days for improving gait, balance, and mobility in individuals with chronic stroke. PMID: 25467394 [PubMed - in process]

Does Respiratory Muscle Training Improve Cough Flow in Acute Stroke? Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Respiratory muscle function and cough flow improve with time after acute stroke. Additional inspiratory or expiratory respiratory muscle training does not augment or expedite this improvement. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.controlled-trials.com. Unique identifier: ISRCTN40298220.

Intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of ultrasonographic measurements of acromion-greater tuberosity distance in patients with post-stroke hemiplegia.
CONCLUSION: Ultrasonographic measurement of AGT distance demonstrates excellent intra-rater reliability for a novice rater. Inter-rater reliability of ultrasonographic measurement of AGT also demonstrates good reliability between novice and experienced raters. PMID: 26653884 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The use of virtual reality for balance among individuals with chronic stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: Overall, VR interventions compared to conventional rehabilitation had significant improvements. The meta-analyses also suggest that the Nintendo(®) Wii Fit balance board may not be effective, although further confirmatory studies are necessary. Results should be interpreted with caution due to differences in therapy intensities and effect sizes within the included studies. PMID: 27309680 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The effect of a whole-body vibration therapy on the sitting balance of subacute stroke patients: a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that WBV therapy led to improvement of the recovery in balance recovery for subacute stroke patients. Because the WBV therapy was as effective as conventional physical therapy, we can consider a WBV therapy as a clinical method to improve the sitting balance of subacute stoke patients.

POWER training in chronic stroke individuals: differences between responders and nonresponders.
CONCLUSION: The potential for POWER training to enhance general locomotor function was confirmed. Baseline paretic knee strength/power may be an important factor in how an individual responds to this style of training. The lack of change within the non-responders emphasizes the contribution of factors other than lower extremity muscle power improvement to locomotor dysfunction.

Rehabilitation methods for reducing shoulder subluxation in post-stroke hemiparesis: a systematic review.
Conclusion No technique could effectively reduce the subluxation and facilitate the upper limb recovery. Further studies integrating the usual motor training and the subluxation rehabilitation are warranted. Future trials using more precise and valid tool such as ultrasonography are also needed.

The improvement in respiratory function by inspiratory muscle training is due to structural muscle changes in patients with stroke: a randomized controlled pilot trial.
CONCLUSION: Inspiratory muscle training was effective in improving respiratory function and inducing structural changes, especially in the affected diaphragm. PMID: 29061084 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A single session of moderate intensity walking increases brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the chronic post-stroke patients.
Conclusions This study suggests a potential mechanism for the beneficial effects of exercise as a component of recovery from stroke, and provides the basis for future studies that will elucidate the specific parameters for clinical applications. PMID: 29078742 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
