Patients With Greater Stroke Severity and Premorbid Disability Are Less Likely to Receive Therapist Consultations and Intervention During Acute Care Hospitalization.
CONCLUSIONS: Approximately 1 in 4 participants with acute stroke received neither a consultation nor an intervention. Efforts to improve the delivery of acute care therapy services are needed to optimize care for these people. PMID: 31390013 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Benefits of an interdisciplinary stroke clinic: addressing a gap in physical therapy at post-stroke neurology follow-up
CONCLUSION: A significant number of post-acute stroke survivors were found to be appropriate for additional rehabilitation when assessed clinically by a neurologic physical therapist in an ISC. The measures that most closely correlated with this in-person clinical evaluation were 10MWT and SF-SIS.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONAn interdisciplinary stroke clinic can improve communication and identify people post-stroke who have not reached their full recovery potential.In a pilot study, a significant number of post-acute stroke survivors were found to be appropriate for additional rehabilitation when assessed clinically by ...

Relative Aerobic Load of Daily Activities After Stroke
CONCLUSION: Individuals after stroke experience a high relative aerobic load during cyclic daily-life activities, despite adopting a slower movement pace than peers with no impairments. Perhaps individuals after stroke limit their movement pace to operate at sustainable relative aerobic load levels at the expense of pace and economy.IMPACT: Improving aerobic capacity through structured aerobic training in a rehabilitation program should be further investigated as a potential intervention to improve mobility and functioning after stroke.PMID:37172129 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzad005

Participation in Community Walking Following Stroke: The Influence of Self-Perceived Environmental Barriers.
CONCLUSIONS: Avoidance of features within some, but not all, environmental dimensions was associated with self-reported frequency of community walking following stroke suggesting that some environmental features may limit community walking more than others.

Vascular Elasticity and Grip Strength Are Associated With Bone Health of the Hemiparetic Radius in Chronic Stroke: Implications for Rehabilitation.
CONCLUSIONS: Both the integrity of the vasculature and muscle strength were significantly associated with the bone strength index at the hemiparetic radius diaphysis among people with chronic stroke. The results may be useful in guiding rehabilitative programs for enhancing bone health in the paretic arm following a stroke. PMID: 23431208 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Stroke Impact Scale Version 2: Validation of the French Version.
CONCLUSIONS: The French SIS version presents good psychometric properties, except for ceiling effect. This is the first stroke-specific questionnaire evaluating perceived health after stroke to be validated in France, and could be useful for further investigations of HRQoL after stroke.

Adherence of physical therapy with clinical practice guidelines for the rehabilitation of stroke in an active inpatient setting.
CONCLUSION: This audit provides an initial picture of the current adherence of physical therapy assessment and management with the stroke physical therapy guideline at a tertiary rehabilitation hospital in the state of Qatar. An evaluation of the guideline adherence and practice variations helps to fine tune the physical therapy care to a highest possible standard of practice. Implications for Rehabilitation  • An evaluation of the guideline adherence and practice variations helps to fine tune the rehabilitation care to the highest possible standard of practice.     • Proper assessments of the relationshi...

Predictors of Return To Driving after Stroke (P03.157)
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with higher FIM cognition and lower extremity Motricity Index scores at admission to inpatient rehabilitation are more likely to return to driving at six months. This model could be used by rehabilitation professionals to help counsel patients and their families and focus treatment goals.Supported by: American Academy of Neurology, NIH National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, HealthSouth Corporation, Washington University McDonnell Center for Systems Neuroscience, and the Foundation for Barnes-Jewish Hospital.Disclosure: Dr. Aufman has nothing to disclose.

Abstract 100: Effects of time to Physical Therapy Order on Length of Stay and Discharge NIH Stroke Scale Scores in an Acute Stroke Unit Poster Session I
Conclusions: Ideally, stroke patients should be evaluated for physical therapy services within 24 hours of a PO. Shortage of PT staff in a busy health care facility may impact how soon patients can be seen. Although the current pilot study did not reveal significant changes in LOS, and NIHSS scores of stroke patients at discharge irrespective of whether patients were seen by physical therapists ≤ or >48 hours after a PO, severity of the stroke, previous history of stroke or TIAs, and other co-morbidities that could have confounded the results were not examined. Future study design will take into account these potenti...

Functional Principal Component Analysis as a new methodology for the analysis of the impact of two rehabilitation protocols in functional recovery after stroke
Conclusions: FPCA is a method which may be used to provide greater insight into the analysis of the rehabilitation process than that provided by conventional parametric methods. So, by using the whole curves as basic data parameters, subtle differences in the rehabilitation process can be found.FPCA represents a future aid for the fine analysis of similar physiotherapy techniques, when applied in subjects with a huge variability of functional recovery, as in the case of post-stroke patients.

Modeling factors predictive of functional improvement following acute stroke
Conclusion Functional status prior to stroke and motivation are predictive of functional outcome at 3 months and 6 months poststroke. We have provided a formula that can be used to predict a patient’s progress and then set treatment goals and programs accordingly.
