Secondary Analysis of Walking Activities during the Acute Stroke Hospital Stay and Cerebrovascular Health
CONCLUSIONS: Physical activity during the hospital stay post-stroke may support cerebrovascular health after discharge. Prospective studies are needed to support this finding.PMID:35910593 | PMC:PMC9327803 | DOI:10.1097/CPT.0000000000000196

Effects of virtual reality in the early-stage stroke rehabilitation: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
CONCLUSION: VR is a feasible approach and demonstrates comparable effectiveness in functional outcomes with conventional rehabilitation in patients with stroke at the early-stage. Further research focusing on the application of VR in acute stroke survivors with adequate sample size, additional follow-up evaluation and valid outcome measures are warranted.PMID:35801290 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2094302

Patient and therapist perspectives on physical therapy outcome measures and engagement after stroke: A case study
CONCLUSION: Patients valued the objective results of outcome measures and were encouraged by measurable changes. Maximizing the use of physical therapy outcome measures may improve patient engagement and support relational autonomy.PMID:35786128 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2092801

Immediate effect of different ankle-foot orthosis functions with the same dorsiflexed setting of initial ankle joint angle on walking ability in individuals with chronic stroke: a randomized crossover trial
Conclusion] In individuals with chronic stroke, ankle-foot orthosis function may be less important than the dorsiflexed setting of initial ankle joint angle in the ankle-foot orthosis.PMID:35784608 | PMC:PMC9246403 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.485

Italian translation and transcultural validation of an assessment tool for community ambulation in stroke survivors: the modified Functional Walking Categories (mFWC)
CONCLUSIONS: The Italian mFWC offers a valid tool for measuring community ambulation in stroke patients. Our work provides a validated and a cross-cultural adapted Italian version of the mFWC to accurately measure community ambulation both in clinical and research settings in Italy.PMID:35775498 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2094303

Two Balance Measures as Poststroke Predictors of Ambulation Status at Discharge From Inpatient Rehabilitation
This study aimed to (1) determine whether the Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke (PASS) and the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) can predict an individual's IRF discharge poststroke gait category and (2) establish cut-off scores for these assessments to better forecast gait category upon discharge. Methods: A total of 180 individuals with an admitting stroke diagnosis were assessed with both balance measures and the 10-m walking test at admission and discharge from inpatient rehabilitation. Participants were stratified by gait speed into 4 groups (nonambulators: 0 m/s; household ambulators: 0.8 m/s). Results: Both ...

Physical Activity After Transient Ischemic Attack or Mild Stroke Is Business as Usual
Conclusion: Information about the necessity to engage in recommended physical activity levels requires tailoring to the needs of the people with TIA or mild stroke. Helpful information in combination with support and strategies may guide how to navigate factors preventing engagement and might influence the low level of physical activity prevalent in this population.

Use of an EMG-Controlled Game as a Therapeutic Tool to Retrain Hand Muscle Activation Patterns Following Stroke: A Pilot Study
Conclusions: Stroke survivors could successfully use the EMG-controlled games to train control of muscle activation patterns. While the nonparetic limb EMG was used in this study to create target EMG patterns, the system supports various means for creating target patterns per user desires. Future studies will employ training with the EMG-controlled games in conjunction with functional task practice for a longer intervention duration to improve overall hand function.
