The Role of Personalized Virtual Reality in Education for Patients Post Stroke —A Qualitative Case Series
Background: Education is essential to promote prevention of recurrent stroke and maximize rehabilitation; however, current techniques are limited and many patients remain dissatisfied. Virtual reality (VR) may provide an alternative way of conveying complex information through a more universal language. Aim: To develop and conduct preliminary assessments on the use of a guided and personalized 3D visualization education session via VR, for stroke survivors and primary caregivers. Methods: Four poststroke patients and their 4 primary caregivers completed the 3D visualization education session as well as pre- and postintervention interviews.

Feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of the phone based interventions under nurse guidance after stroke (pings) in ghana
PINGS is a clinical trial to evaluate a nurse-led mHealth technology - centered approach to maintaining BP control among recent stroke survivors with hypertension in Ghana. PINGS involves domiciliary BP self-monitoring, mobile phone consultations, phone alerts as reminders, and patient education via text messages. We assessed the feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of PINGS from the perspective of health workers in general - not necessarily working in stroke rehabilitation.

Cardiovascular Risk Profile and Cognitive Function in Young, Middle-Aged, and Elderly Subjects Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— In this large population–based cohort, a worse overall cardiovascular risk profile was associated with poorer cognitive function. This association was already present in young adults aged 35 to 44 years.

Family Conferences in Stroke Rehabilitation: A Literature Review
Conclusions: Much more can be done within the multidisciplinary team to ensure that the information needs of patients and families are catered for during their inpatient admission and on their return to the community. Additional research and trials of interventions by established rehabilitation services will allow for improved and more informed clinical practice (including cost effectiveness), enhanced knowledge of caregiver needs, and essentially more positive outcomes for rehabilitation patients and their families. Research may be able to develop best practice guidelines to ensure reduced caregiver stress and anxiety dur...

Effects of Early Exercise Engagement on Vascular Risk in Patients with Transient Ischemic Attack and Nondisabling Stroke
The objective of this study was to conduct a randomized, parallel-group clinical trial assessed the efficacy of a health-enhancing physical activity program (exercise and education) on vascular risk factors and aerobic fitness in patients who have experienced a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or nondisabling stroke. Sixty patients (69 ± 11 years) completed a baseline (BL) vascular risk stratification and aerobic fitness examination (cycle test) within 2 weeks of symptom onset. Subjects were then randomized to either an 8-week, twice weekly exercise program or to a usual-care control (CON) group. Postintervention (PI) ...

A Q-Methodology Study of Patients' Subjective Experiences of TIA.
Conclusions. Five of the eight factors confirmed existing research on the impact of TIA, but three new issues emerged: deep-seated anxiety, denial and constructive optimism. The emerging perspectives highlight areas to target in the management of TIA and could inform health education messages, patient information, individualised caremanagement, and enhancement of coping strategies. With development, the findings could be used as a basis for psychometric risk assessment of TIA patients. PMID: 22848864 [PubMed]

Fitness and cognition in the elderly: The Austrian Stroke Prevention Study
Conclusions: Higher Vo2max is associated with better global cognitive function and with better performance in the cognitive domains of memory, executive function, and motor skills in the middle-aged and elderly. The association is not mediated by the presence of white matter lesions, lacunes, and brain atrophy.

Dabigatran and Warfarin are Both Used for Stroke-prevention in Patients with AF but their Side effects Differ
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – Dabigatran and warfarin offer similar stroke-prevention efficacy in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), but their side effect profiles differ, according to a systematic review and meta-analysis of real-world clinical practice. “There could be many reasons for the differences in our findings, such as differences in the quality of evidence of...

Comment: Telemedicine training during stroke fellowship
In 2009, the American Heart Association recommended the implementation of telemedicine within stroke systems of care.1 Telestroke services have expanded throughout the United States, and have led to improvements in access to care, recombinant tissue plasminogen activator utilization, and cost-effectiveness. Medical trainees must be educated to utilize these new technologies and health care delivery models. There is limited information on the training of telemedicine providers and what education is necessary. A recent article recommended telemedicine-related enhancements to Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Educati...

A physical sign of stroke sequel on the skeleton of Leonardo da Vinci?
Scholars generally state that Leonardo da Vinci died in 1519 at age 67 of recurrent stroke. One finding may confirm this medical hypothesis: in 1863, the grave of Leonardo was discovered in the Saint-Florentin chapel of Amboise (France), with the skeleton of an old man, tiny fragments of white hair, 8 remaining teeth, and the upper right arm blocked over the skull1 (figure).
