The implications of the Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations for design and allocation of rehabilitation after hospital discharge: a problematization.
CONCLUSION: An alternate vision of post-discharge rehabilitation could help resolve this tension. Post-discharge rehabilitation could be envisioned as a self-management intervention. Rather than primarily an expert-driven process of measuring impairment and applying procedures aimed at normalization, rehabilitation would be considered facilitation of self-management with the goal of reengaging in forms of participation that comprise a satisfying life. Implications for Rehabilitation Implicit assumptions within best practice guidelines powerfully influence recommendations. These ideas are difficult to examine because they s...

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...

Sensory Modulation and Participation in Daily Occupations in Stroke Survivors : Modulation sensorielle et participation aux occupations quotidiennes chez les survivants d'un AVC
Can J Occup Ther. 2021 Oct 9:84174211047372. doi: 10.1177/00084174211047372. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBackground. Stroke may alter sensory modulation and restrict participation in daily occupations. Although studies highlight the relationship between altered sensory modulation and reduced participation, this relationship in stroke survivors has not been studied enough. Purpose. To examine the prevalence of altered sensory modulation among stroke survivors; to compare sensory modulation and participation between stroke survivors and healthy controls; to estimate the relationship between sensory modulation and participa...

Trends in the Incidence and Risk Factors of Pregnancy-Associated Stroke
The objective of this review is to summarize studies on time trends of PAS in relation to trends in the prevalence of stroke risk factors in pregnant women. Seven retrospective national healthcare register-based cohort studies from the US, Canada, UK, Sweden, and Finland were identified. Five studies from the US, Canada, and Finland reported an increasing trend of PAS. Potential biases include more sensitive diagnostics and improved stroke awareness among pregnant women and professionals toward the end of the study period. However, the concurrent increase in the prevalence of several stroke risk factors among pregnant wome...

Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations: Virtual Stroke Rehabilitation Consensus Statement 2022
Am J Phys Med Rehabil. 2022 Jun 29. doi: 10.1097/PHM.0000000000002062. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe 7th edition of the Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations (CSBPR) for Rehabilitation and Recovery following Stroke includes a new section devoted to the provision of virtual stroke rehabilitation. This consensus statement utilizes GRADE methodology and AGREE II principles. A literature search was conducted using PUBMED, EMBASE and COCHRANE databases. An expert writing group reviewed all evidence and developed recommendations, as well as consensus-based clinical considerations where evidence was insufficient for a...

Relationships between long-term residential exposure to total environmental noise and stroke incidence
CONCLUSION: The results suggest that total environmental noise is associated with incident stroke, which is consistent with studies on transportation noise and other CVD.PMID:35900388 | DOI:10.4103/nah.nah_34_21
