Beliefs of rehabilitation professionals towards guided self-rehabilitation contracts for post stroke hemiparesis.
Conclusions The strategy of asking patients to perform exercises alone, in the practice or at home, is still not accepted by a large proportion of physical therapy professionals as compared with students or with physicians. Most therapists still see a <5-h weekly duration of exercise as sufficient after stroke. Few therapists are ready to utilize the persistence of behavior-induced brain plasticity regardless of age or delay after the lesion.

Descriptive analysis of post-stroke patients in a neurological physical therapy unit
Discussion and conclusionOur results do not show significant differences between the persons < 65 years and the number of outpatient physiotherapy sessions performed, although the resulting values are close to significance. Our results suggest that the PPP is a young person, with a hemorrhagic and left or bilateral stroke.

Sensors, Vol. 23, Pages 712: Perspectives of Motor Functional upper Extremity Recovery with the Use of Immersive Virtual Reality in Stroke Patients
ński
Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability, including loss of hand manipulative skills. It constitutes a major limitation in independence and the ability to perform everyday tasks. Among the numerous accessible physiotherapeutic methods, it is becoming more common to apply Virtual Reality "VR&rdquo;. The aim of this study was to establish whether immersive VR was worth considering as a form of physical therapy and the advisability of applying it in restoring post-stroke hand function impairment. A proprietary application Virtual Mirror Hand 1.0 was used in the research and its effectivenes...

“Sequential multimodality stimulation” for post-stroke-hemineglect: Feasibility and outcome in a pilot randomized controlled trial
ConclusionMultimodality stimulation, in addition to standard physiotherapy, is feasible and potentially results in better neurocognitive and functional recovery following right hemispheric ischemic strokes. However, larger studies are warranted to prove these preliminary observations beyond doubt.

Can You Think Yourself Into A Different Person?
For years she had tried to be the perfect wife and mother but now, divorced, with two sons, having gone through another break-up and in despair about her future, she felt as if she’d failed at it all, and she was tired of it. On 6 June 2007 Debbie Hampton, of Greensboro, North Carolina, took an overdose of more than 90 pills – a combination of ten different prescription drugs, some of which she’d stolen from a neighbor’s bedside cabinet. That afternoon, she’d written a note on her computer: “I’ve screwed up this life so bad that there is no place here for me and nothing I can contr...

Glyn Humphreys obituary
Key figure in cognitive neuroscience whose research helped many stroke victimsWhen the neuropsychologist Glyn Humphreys, who has died suddenly aged 61, took up his first lectureship, at Birkbeck College, London, a student with a background in physiotherapy joined his class. She asked about the implications of David Marr’s theory of visual perception for the understanding of patients who experience visual disturbances after suffering a stroke. This led to a lively discussion and a subsequent visit to a stroke clinic. It proved to be a turning point in Glyn’s research, highlighting the many ways in which brain damage can...

Analyzing the Eye Gaze Behaviour of Students and Experienced Physiotherapists during Observational Movement Analysis
Conclusions: Measuring eye gaze behaviour during OMA using eye tracker technology is feasible. Physiotherapists made more fixations of shorter duration than students. Further investigation of how experienced therapists perform OMA and apply it to clinical reasoning may inform the instruction of OMA.PMID:34456422 | PMC:PMC8370730 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2019-0047
