Relationship between gait profile score and clinical assessments of gait in post-stroke patients
CONCLUSION: Multivariate linear models show that the Gait Profile Score seems to be an independent linear predictor of balance performance in patients with chronic stroke, and Gait Variable Scores on the sagittal plane may help clinicians to investigate acquired compensatory strategies.PMID:33710352 | DOI:10.2340/16501977-2809

Patients' experiences of self-administered electrotherapy for spasticity in stroke and cerebral palsy: A qualitative study
Conclusion: The qualitative approach used in this study elicited complementary information that was not evident from the previous RCT. This included statements regarding increased mobility, reduced spasticity, reduced use of medication, and problems related to using the treatment concept.PMID:34935050 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v53.1131

Functional electrical stimulation and ankle foot orthoses provide equivalent therapeutic effects on foot drop: A meta-analysis providing direction for future research.
CONCLUSION: Functional electrical stimulation and ankle foot orthoses have an equally positive therapeutic effect on walking speed in non-progressive central nervous system diagnoses. The current randomized controlled trial evidence base does not show whether this improvement translates into the user's own environment or reveal the mechanisms that achieve that change. Future studies should focus on measuring activity, muscle activity and gait kinematics. They should also report specific device details, capture sustained therapeutic effects and involve a variety of central nervous system diagnoses. PMID: 29227525 [PubMe...
