Fluoxetine Maintains a State of Heightened Responsiveness to Motor Training Early After Stroke in a Mouse Model Basic Sciences
Conclusions— There is a gradient of diminishing responsiveness to motor training over the first week after stroke. Fluoxetine can overcome this gradient and maintain maximal levels of responsiveness to training even 7 days after stroke.

Factors affecting rehabilitation and use of upper limb after stroke: views from healthcare professionals and stroke survivors.
CONCLUSION: The findings indicate that stroke survivors and healthcare professionals have very similar understandings of barriers to UL activity, and positive upper limb rehabilitation behaviors are not always established early in recovery post-stroke. Increased resources and healthcare professional-patient relationships seem key factors to establishing positive perceptions of UL rehabilitation. Addressing psychosocial issues and resource limitations may help sustain engagement with UL rehabilitation. PMID: 30422096 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Physical Activity and Exercise Recommendations for Stroke Survivors: A Statement for Healthcare Professionals From the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association AHA/ASA Scientific Statement
Conclusions— The recommendation from this writing group is that physical activity and exercise prescription should be incorporated into the management of stroke survivors. The promotion of physical activity in stroke survivors should emphasize low- to moderate-intensity aerobic activity, muscle-strengthening activity, reduction of sedentary behavior, and risk management for secondary prevention of stroke.

Motivation, expectations, and usability of a driven gait orthosis in stroke patients and their therapists.
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke user group patients seem quite motivated to train with the DGO and both patients and therapists reasonably believe that this training could improve gait functioning. Therapists are moderately satisfied with the usability of the DGO, but there is room for improvement with respect to usefulness and ease of use. PMID: 27996894 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Psychological and emotional needs, assessment, and support post-stroke: a multi-perspective qualitative study.
DISCUSSION: Stroke patients need better access to psychological support, including information, advice, and peer or social support. More research is required to establish the effectiveness of alternative options to formal psychological support. PMID: 27309492 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The post-stroke upper limb improvement effort survey (IMPETUS): asurvey of individuals with chronic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Participants desired more arm/hand strength, function, and recovery that they perceived they had achieved. Impairment - level factors posed more barriers to arm recovery than socioeconomic ones. Most participants were interested in using arm/hand training devices; the most important device characteristic is functional gain. PMID: 31386604 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Socioeconomic Conditions in Childhood, Adolescence, and Adulthood and the Risk of Ischemic Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— This study supports the hypothesis that unfavorable childhood socioeconomic conditions are related to ischemic stroke risk, independent of established risk factors and socioeconomic status in adulthood, and fosters the idea that stroke prevention needs to begin early in life.

The effect of water-based exercises on balance in persons post-stroke: a randomized controlled trial.
This study examined the effect of water-based exercises compared to land-based exercises on the balance of people with sub-acute stroke. METHODS: In this single-blind randomized controlled study, 32 patients with first-time stroke discharged from inpatient rehabilitation at West Park Healthcare Centre were recruited. Participants were randomized into W (water-based + land; n = 17) or L (land only; n = 15) exercise groups. Both groups attended therapy two times per week for six weeks. Initial and progression protocols for the water-based exercises (a combination of balance, stretching, and strengthening and endur...

Modified Approach to Stroke Rehabilitation (MAStR): feasibility study of a method to apply procedural memory concepts to transfer training.
CONCLUSIONS: Feasibility was demonstrated for an innovative application of procedural memory concepts to stroke rehabilitation. All rehabilitation disciplines were successfully trained. MAStR was well-tolerated and liked by rehabilitation staff and patients. These results support pursuit of a Phase II pilot study. PMID: 29609504 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Feasibility and trend of pulmonary function in a pilot trial of aerobic walking exercise in non-ambulatory stroke survivors.
Conclusions: In non-ambulatory stroke survivors, aerobic walking exercise is feasible and safe. Also, the results are promising and suggest that aerobic walking exercise may improve lung function; more data are needed. PMID: 31622173 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Immediate kinematic and muscle activity changes after a single robotic exoskeleton walking session post-stroke.
Conclusions: EKSO training appears capable of altering gait in people with chronic stroke and a viable intervention to reduce gait dysfunction post-stroke. PMID: 32077382 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Barriers and facilitators to implementing stepped psychological care for people with aphasia: Perspectives of stroke health professionals.
Conclusion Addressing the identified barriers and facilitators to stepped psychological care will improve the viability of implementing this evidence-based framework after post-stroke aphasia. Change may be driven through specialist training for health professionals in communication support; mood assessment and treatments; modification of physical space; and accessible resources.

Effect of a stroke support service in Germany: a randomized trial.
CONCLUSION: An additional stroke support service did not improve physical function, health-related quality of life, depression, somatization, or reinfarcts in stroke patients. Data suggest a lower overall risk of mortality in the intervention group. PMID: 25920942 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
