Factors influencing the amount of therapy received during inpatient stroke care: an analysis of data from the UK Sentinel Stroke National Audit Programme.
CONCLUSION: The amount of stroke therapy is associated with unmodifiable patient-related characteristics and modifiable organizational factors in that more therapy was associated with higher therapy and nurse staffing levels, specialist stroke rehabilitation services, timely therapy assessments, and the presence of weekend and early discharge services.

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 ...

Available apps for stroke telerehabilitation during corona virus disease 2019 confinement in Spain.
CONCLUSIONS: There are few specific Apps for the Stroke rehabilitation of sensory-motor impairments, and with important limitations that prevent their incorporation into clinical practice. The creation and adaptation of Apps for health professionals such as physiotherapists and occupational therapists and their users are recommended. Implications for rehabilitation It is necessary to create and adapt specific telerehabilitation tools to address sensory-motor disorders. Telerehabilitation should be introduced in the clinical practice of physiotherapy and occupational therapy. Telerehabilitation via App can be a solution, ea...

Is early rehabilitation a myth? Physical inactivity in the first week after myocardial infarction and stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This study provides the first objective data on physical activity levels of acute MI patients. While they were more active than acute stroke patients, the difference was largely attributable to walking ability. Implications for rehabilitation In the first week after myocardial infarction, patients spent about half the day physically inactive (even though 81% were able to walk independently). Similar levels of inactivity were seen in a comparable cohort of acute stroke patients, suggesting that environmental factors play an important role. There appears to be wide scope for increasing levels of physical rehabil...

Predicting fitness-to-drive following stroke using the Occupational Therapy - Driver Off Road Assessment Battery.
CONCLUSION: The three cognitive subtests from the Occupational Therapy - Driver Off Road Assessment Battery and potentially one of the physical tests have good predictive validity for client fitness-to-drive. These tests can be used to screen client suitability for proceeding to an on-road test following stroke. Implications for Rehabilitation: Following stroke, drivers should be counseled (including consideration of local legislation) concerning return to driving. The Occupational Therapy - Driver Off Road Assessment Battery can be used in the clinic to screen people for suitability to undertake on road assessment. Scores...

Stroke self-management and the role of self-efficacy.
Conclusions: Engagement in a stroke-specific self-management program can improve client-perceived occupational performance and satisfaction. Self-efficacy was shown to be a mediating variable to occupational performance improvements. Future research should explore further the facilitatory strategies of self-efficacy during stroke self-management programs to maximize rehabilitation outcomes. Implications for rehabilitation Multi-modal self-management programs are recommended as effective for improving client-perceived occupational performance of people who have experienced stroke. Returning to valued occupations, goal setti...
