Meaningful Functional Change from Physical Therapy Provided in a Student Run Pro-Bono Clinic
The purpose was to determine factors associated with meaningful functional change in patients with chronic stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS) and traumatic brain injury (TBI) during one semester at a student-run, pro-bono, physical therapy (PT) clinic.

Immediate affective responses of gait training in neurological rehabilitation: A randomized crossover trial.
CONCLUSION: Affective responses might be positively influenced by robotic-assisted gait training, which may help to overcome motivational problems during the rehabilitation process in neurological patients. PMID: 28218343 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Telehealth in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation: A Narrative Review
Publication date: May 2017 Source:PM&R, Volume 9, Issue 5, Supplement Author(s): Adam S. Tenforde, Jaye E. Hefner, Jodi E. Kodish-Wachs, Mary A. Iaccarino, Sabrina Paganoni Telehealth refers to health care interactions that leverage telecommunication devices to provide medical care outside the traditional face-to-face, in-person medical encounter. Technology advances and research have expanded use of telehealth in health care delivery. Physical medicine and rehabilitation providers may use telehealth to deliver care to populations with neurologic and musculoskeletal conditions, commonly treated in both acute care ...

Tone-inhibiting insoles enhance the reciprocal inhibition of ankle plantarflexors of post-stroke hemiparetic subjects: an electromyographic study
Spasticity is a common sequela of upper motor neuron pathology, such as cerebrovascular diseases and cerebral palsy. Intervention for spasticity of the ankle plantarflexors in physical therapy may include tone-inhibiting casting and/or orthoses for the ankle and foot. However, the physiological mechanism of tone reduction by such orthoses remains unclarified.

Effects of vestibular rehabilitation on gait performance in poststroke patients: a pilot randomized controlled trial
This study aimed to investigate whether or not vestibular rehabilitation would improve both the vestibulo–ocular reflex and gait performance of patients with poststroke hemiparesis. Twenty-eight patients with stroke were assigned randomly to either an experimental group (N=14) or a control group (N=14). The experimental group performed the conventional physical therapy for 40 min and vestibular rehabilitation for 20 min, as a 60 min session, during the first 3 weeks and then completed only the conventional intervention for 60 min for the following 3 weeks. The control group performed only the 60 min conventiona...

Examining the Effect of Receiving Strategy Training Intervention on Usual Care Practice
We examined the frequencies of directed and guided cues in usual rehabilitation care (occupational therapy and physical therapy) and in strategy training sessions (where guided cues are emphasized).

The Suicidal Outpatient: Balancing Autonomy, Trust, and Responsibilities
The intersection where mental health and rehabilitation care converge can raise ethical questions involving boundaries, duties, and perhaps more importantly, our role in recovery, adjustment, and flourishing. The patient with a stroke-related depression is one prototypical example. We know that damage to specific parts of the brain can cause depressive symptomatology as well as the fact that the adjustment process during rehabilitation itself can impact well-being and a sense of self-efficacy. In this column, we explore a case of when a patient becomes severely depressed and suicidal and expresses this ideation during an o...

Treatment interventions for pusher syndrome: A case series.
CONCLUSIONS: These outcomes provide preliminary evidence of decreased pushing behavior, and improved balance and transfers following a program of interventions designed to improve the functional outcomes of patients with PS. Larger studies are needed to confirm these findings, and whether these interventions are effective for patients with less severe pushing behavior. PMID: 30814367 [PubMed - in process]

Quantifying dosage of physical therapy using lower body kinematics: a longitudinal pilot study on early post-stroke individuals
While therapy is an important part of the recovery process, there is a lack of quantitative data detailing the “dosage” of therapy received due to the limitations on in/outpatient accessibility and mobility. A...

Virtual Reality Augments Movement During Physical Therapy: A Pragmatic Randomized Trial
Objective Virtual reality facilitates physical therapy via improved engagement. Although shown to benefit specific patient populations, such as stroke patients, it is less established in otherwise healthy adults and children receiving outpatient physical therapy. The primary objective was to compare total physical therapy–guided movement supplemented with virtual reality with physical therapy–guided movement alone without virtual reality. Design This pragmatic, randomized, crossover study compared physical therapy–guided movement supplemented with virtual reality with physical therapy–guided movement alo...

Acute Occupational and Physical Therapy for COVID-19 Patients: A Retrospective Cohort Study
In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel coronavirus strain SARS-CoV2 (the virus causing COVID-19) a global pandemic.24 The severity of illness in those exhibiting symptoms ranges from mild (cough, shortness of breath, fatigue) to severe (acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), thrombosis, stroke, and death).4,11 Patients have also acquired acute polyradiculoneuritis (Guillain Barre syndrome) at a disproportionately high rate, contributing to functional limitations that require specialized and intensive rehabilitation.
