Effect of crossed-education using a tilt table task-oriented approach in subjects with post-stroke hemiplegia: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Compared with tilt table or conventional training alone, crossed-education using task-oriented training on a tilt table may result in improvements in arm function and maximal grip strength in persons with chronic hemiplegia post-stroke. PMID: 30221305 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Opportunities and challenges in secondary stroke prevention: a mixed methods study.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings highlight the ongoing challenges with achieving risk factor control after stroke and the potential to utilise health information technology to engage stroke survivors in self-management of their risk factors. Implications for rehabilitation Clinicians should be knowledgeable of the challenges that stroke survivors face in managing their risk factors after stroke and the role that they can play in providing tailored education. BP continues to be poorly controlled after stroke and there is opportunity for improvement. Stroke survivors and their families are receptive to using health information te...

The ABCs for Nutrition Poststroke: An Evidence-Based Practice Guide for Rehabilitation Professionals
Rehabilitation professionals are trained to assist patients to recover and cope with functional limitations after a stroke. However, there are limited resources and medical education geared toward preparing rehabilitation professionals to integrate nutritional care into stroke care. Experts suggest that all rehabilitation professionals should be trained in evidence-based nutritional approaches for patients after a stroke.1,2 The purpose of this document is to educate rehabilitation professionals on best nutritional practices poststroke.

Therapists' perspectives on adapting the Stepping On falls prevention programme for community-dwelling stroke survivors in Singapore.
CONCLUSIONS: Rehabilitation therapists describe challenges in addressing fall prevention within a stroke context, and findings highlight the need for a structured, stroke-specific fall prevention programme rather than a more general approach to education and training. Contextual components identified provide valuable inputs towards the development of a culturally relevant fall prevention programme for stroke survivors in Singapore. Implications for Rehabilitation Stroke survivors living in the community are at a high risk of falls. A structured and culturally relevant fall prevention programme for community-living stroke s...

Recovery and compensation after robotic assisted gait training in chronic stroke survivors.
CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that the proposed training induced mainly a functional change rather than an improvement of the quality of gait. Implication for Rehabilitation Gait re-education is a primary goal in stroke rehabilitation. Nowadays several robotic devices for gait rehabilitation are used in the clinical practice, but their effectiveness is controversial, especially for chronic survivors. After a 20-session training with an endpoint robot the chronic stroke survivors showed an improvement in overground gait speed. The increased gait speed was mainly due to functional changes of the temporal parameters and...

Informing pediatric rehabilitation: Language-based neuropsychological profile following traumatic brain injury and stroke secondary to arteriovenous malformation.
CONCLUSIONS: This study represents an initial step in understanding the language-based neuropsychological outcomes of children diagnosed with sTBI compared to those with stroke secondary to AVM, which will help inform the rehabilitation process. With this knowledge, clinicians, families, and educators will be better equipped to provide informed individual rehabilitation programs, recommendations, and education for children and adolescents with brain injuries.

Determining the Needs of Family Caregivers of Stroke Patients During Inpatient Rehabilitation Using Interview, Art, and Survey.
Abstract The purpose of this study is to explore the needs of family members at the bedside of stroke patients (n = 12) admitted to an inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF). Family members' needs were determined through semistructured interviews, "Draw a Bridge" art therapy technique, and the Family Inventory of Needs. Family members described a family-centered approach to care that addressed the following needs: assistance with preparing for discharge, staff caring for family members, communication about the plan of care and what to expect postdischarge, and trusting the care provided by IRF staff. Art therapy ...

The clinical utility and construct validity of the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery (NIHTB-CB) in individuals with disabilities.
A State-of-the-Science conference on measurement with disability populations recommended “...the development of cognitive and psychosocial outcome measures, using computer-adaptive testing...that are low in respondent burden and valid across patient populations,” (Clohan et al., 2007, p. 1537). Following this recommendation, the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) prioritized the development of measures of cognitive functioning for individuals with disabilities, noting that measures of cognitive functioning “have not been developed for systemic application in th...

Uncorrected versus demographically-corrected scores on the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery in persons with traumatic brain injury and stroke.
Objective: The association between demographic characteristics and neurocognitive performance is well established; however, clinicians may have difficulty selecting when to use uncorrected versus demographically corrected scores. We compared these score types in individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and stroke, on the National Institutes of Health Toolbox—Cognition Battery (NIHTB-CB). Research Method: Adults with TBI and stroke were demographically matched to controls, and completed the NIHTB-CB. Published “corrected scores” are adjusted for age, education, sex, and race/ethnicity; “uncorrected scores” we...
