Cognitive-Motor Interference During Functional Mobility After Stroke: State of the Science and Implications for Future Research
Abstract: Cognitive-motor interference (CMI) is evident when simultaneous performance of a cognitive task and a motor task results in deterioration in performance in one or both of the tasks, relative to performance of each task separately. The purpose of this review is to present a framework for categorizing patterns of CMI and to examine the specific patterns of CMI evident in published studies comparing single-task and dual-task performance of cognitive and motor tasks during gait and balance activities after stroke. We also examine the literature for associations between patterns of CMI and a history of falls, as well ...

Reimagining Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery Across the Care Continuum: Results from a Design-Thinking Workshop to Identify Challenges and Propose Solutions
Systems for stroke rehabilitation and recovery are variable and fragmented; stroke survivors often experience gaps in care with detrimental effects on their recovery. We designed and hosted a multidisciplinary and interactive workshop to discuss challenges facing patients recovering from stroke and brainstorm solutions.Forty one participants including clinicians, researchers, and stroke survivors attended the workshop. Participants were surveyed beforehand about challenges facing stroke recovery and results were tabulated as a word cloud.

Review of Therapeutic Electrical Stimulation for Dorsiflexion Assist and Orthotic Substitution From the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine Stroke Movement Interventions Subcommittee
This article provides clinicians with information to guide them in the use of electrical stimulation orthotic substitute devices, discusses current research about the use of electrical stimulation orthotic substitute devices for therapeutic and orthotic purposes, and compares the use of electrical stimulation orthotic substitute devices and AFOs. There is insufficient evidence thus far to conclude that walking with an electrical stimulation orthotic substitute device is superior to walking with an AFO, but electrical stimulation orthotic substitute devices may be the optimal choice for some patients.

Functional Recovery of the Paretic Upper Limb After Stroke: Who Regains Hand Capacity?
Conclusions: Even patients with minimal proximal shoulder and elbow control of the upper paretic limb on admission in a rehabilitation center have a fair chance of regaining some hand capacity in the long-term after stroke, whereas patients without such proximal arm control have a much poorer prognosis for regaining hand capacity.

Impact of Anxiety on Health-Related Quality of Life After Stroke: A Cross-Sectional Study
Conclusions: Anxiety has a negative effect on HRQOL of stroke survivors, independent from depression. Interventions for anxiety should improve stroke survivors' quality of life.

Is Pain Associated With Suicidality in Stroke?
Conclusions: These findings should alert clinicians that the early identification and treatment of pain may reduce suicide risk in patients with stroke.

Empowering stroke survivors: understanding the role of multidisciplinary rehabilitation Impact of stroke
Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide, with someone having a stroke every 40 seconds in the United-States[1]. A stroke can occur by clot that interrupts blood flow in the brain. It can also be caused by a burst of a blood vessel that causes bleeding in the brain. There are also other unknown causes of stroke which occur less frequently. A stroke causes brain cells to die as they no longer receive oxygen and nutrients from the blood. Some of the most common risk factors of stroke are high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart diseases, diabetes, smoking, physical inactivity, and obesity[2].

Proof-of-Principle Pilot Study of Oropharyngeal Air-Pulse Application in Individuals With Dysphagia After Hemispheric Stroke
Conclusions: Oropharyngeal air-pulse trains can be applied in individuals with swallowing impairment. Air-pulse application is associated with increased resting swallowing rates in some individuals with dysphagia secondary to hemispheric stroke. Further research should extend this proof-of-principle study by examining the efficacy of oropharyngeal air-pulse application in terms of improved swallowing and related outcomes in dysphagic stroke through a large randomized trial.

Reliability and Concurrent Validity of Four Square Step Test Scores in Subjects With Chronic Stroke: A Pilot Study
Conclusion: FSST is an easy-to-administer clinical test with good intrarater and interrater reliability in persons with chronic stroke to assess dynamic standing balance. FSST times of 11 seconds are able to differentiate between persons with chronic stroke and healthy adults older than 50 years. The correlation of FSST times with standing balance and functional mobility measures requires further research with a larger sample size.

Inpatient Stroke Rehabilitation Lengths of Stay in Canada Derived From the National Rehabilitation Reporting System, 2008 and 2009
Conclusions: FIM motor function scores at admission along with age and geographic region best predicted rehabilitation LOS. These variables explained 20% of the variation in LOSs. Despite regional differences in LOSs, patient characteristics were similar between regions. Other nonpatient factors not captured in these data may contribute to a greater extent in determining stroke rehabilitation LOS.

Rethinking the Continuum of Stroke Rehabilitation
Abstract: Suffering a stroke can be a devastating and life-changing event. Although there is a large evidence base for stroke rehabilitation in the acute and subacute stages, it has been long accepted that patients with stroke reach a plateau in their rehabilitation recovery relatively early. We have recently published the results of a systematic review designed to identify all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) where a rehabilitation intervention was initiated more than 6 months after the onset of the stroke. Of the trials identified, 339 RCTs met inclusion criteria, demonstrating an evidence base for stroke rehabilitati...

Young Stroke: Resources for Patients, Their Families, and Caregivers for Long-Term Community Living
Approximately 1 in 10 strokes occurs in adults younger than 50 years of age (young stroke).1 In the United States, hospitalizations resulting from to ischemic stroke (most common type of stroke) among young adults are increasing.2,3 Although having a stroke at any age can result in lifelong physical, visual, emotional, and thinking changes that significantly affect the lives of the survivors, their families, and caregivers, young stroke survivors experience additional challenges. Young stroke survivors often still have to take care of their families, work to ensure their financial security, and be active members of their social communities.
