Characteristics of peer-based interventions for individuals with neurological conditions: a scoping review
CONCLUSION: Various peer-based interventions exist, each with its own definition of what it means to be a peer. Research using rigorous methodology is needed to determine the most effective interventions. Clear definitions of each program component are needed to better understand the outcomes and mechanism of action within each intervention.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONRehabilitation services can draw on various peer support interventions to add experiential knowledge and support based on shared experience to enhance outcomes.Fulfilling the role of peer mentor may be beneficial and could be encouraged as part of the reha...

Self-management interventions to improve mobility after stroke: an integrative review
CONCLUSION: There is some evidence that self-management interventions help to improve mobility outcomes post-stroke. Heterogeneity of data in the studies made meta-analysis impossible. Most of the identified studies examined the feasibility and fidelity of the interventions and further research is warranted to examine the efficacy of these interventions to improve functional mobility post-stroke.Implications for rehabilitationSelf-management interventions can improve mobility-related outcomes, which are considered a priority goal for many stroke survivors.Survivors valued their participation in self-management integrated c...

Incentives for Uptake of and Adherence to Outpatient Stroke Rehabilitation Services: A Three-Arm Randomized Controlled Trial
Objective: To determine if rehabilitation uptake and adherence can be increased by providing coordinated transportation (increased convenience) and eliminating out-of-pocket costs (reduced expense).Design: Three-arm randomized controlled trialSetting: Stroke units of two Singapore tertiary hospitalsParticipants: Singaporeans or permanent residents aged ≥21 years who were diagnosed with stroke and discharged home with physician's recommendation to continue outpatient rehabilitation.Interventions: A Transportation Incentives arm (T), which provides free transportation services, a Transportation& Sessions Incentives arm (T&...

What is "usual care" in the rehabilitation of upper limb sensory loss after stroke? Results from a national audit and knowledge translation study
CONCLUSION: Sensory assessment protocol use has increased over time while sensory-specific training has remained stable. Sensory rehabilitation in the context of everyday activities is a common treatment approach. Clinical trial registration number: ACTRN12615000933550IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONOnly a small proportion of upper limb assessments conducted with stroke patients focus specifically on sensation; increased use of standardised upper limb assessments for sensory loss is needed.Stroke patients assessed as having upper limb sensory loss frequently do not receive treatment for their deficits.Therapists typically u...

mHealth technologies used to capture walking and arm use behavior in adult stroke survivors: a scoping review beyond measurement properties
CONCLUSIONS: This provides an initial foundation for a field experiencing rapid growth, new opportunities and the promise that mHealth technologies affords for envisioning a better future for stroke survivors. We synthesized findings into a set of recommendations for clinicians and clinician-scientists about how best to choose mHealth technologies for one's individual objective.Implications for RehabilitationRehabilitation professionals are encouraged to consider the measurement properties of those technologies that are used to monitor functional locomotor and object-interaction skills in the stroke survivors they serve.Mu...

Practical guidance on use of TEARS-Q to diagnose post-stroke emotionalism
CONCLUSION: TEARS-Q reliably identifies those who need no further post-stroke emotionalism assessment, those who need further assessment to clarify diagnosis, and those who almost certainly have post-stroke emotionalism and may benefit from intervention.PMID:34134538 | DOI:10.1177/02692155211024801
