Users' experiences of intensive robotic-assisted gait training post-stroke - "a push forward or feeling pushed around?"
CONCLUSIONS: The gait training intervention including RAGT was considered demanding but appreciated. Support and concrete, individual feedback was crucial for motivation, whilst the lack of variation was a barrier. Results encourage further development of exoskeletons that are comfortable to wear and stimulate active participation by enabling smoothly synchronised movements performed during task-specific activities in different environments. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONWhen provided in a suitable context, the mental and physical challenges of intensive robotic-assisted gait training can be both inspiring and motivating....

A scoping review of the feasibility, acceptability, and effects of physiotherapy delivered remotely
CONCLUSIONS: Remote physiotherapy is safe, feasible, and acceptable to patients. Its effects are comparable with traditional care at lower cost.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONRemote physiotherapy is safe, feasible, and acceptable to patients with comparable effects to in-person care.Remote delivery increases access to physiotherapy especially for those who cannot travel to a treatment facility whether due to distance or disability.Remote physiotherapy may increase adherence to exercise by reminding patients when and how to exercise.Remote physiotherapy does not suit everyone, thus a hybrid system with both in-person and re...

The effect of a trunk stabilization exercise program using weight loads on balance and gait in stroke patients: A randomized controlled study
This study may be used as a basic material for an effective trunk stabilization exercise method for stroke patients and might be of significance as an intervention method for stroke patients requiring long-term treatment.PMID:36155536 | DOI:10.3233/NRE-220143

Intra- and inter-rater reliability of the Italian Fugl-Meyer assessment of upper and lower extremity
CONCLUSIONS: The Italian version of the FMA showed to be a reliable instrument that can therefore be recommended for clinical and research purposes.Implications for rehabilitationThe FMA is the gold standard for assessing stroke patients' sensorimotor impairment worldwide.The Italian Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) and Lower Extremity (FMA-LE) is substantially reliable within and between two raters at the item, subtotal, and total score level in patients with sub-acute stroke.The use of FMA in the Italian context will provide an opportunity for international comparisons and research collaborations.PMID:36...
