Effects of performing a lateral-reaching exercise while seated on a tilted surface for severe post-stroke pusher behavior: A case series.
Conclusion: The lateral sitting exercise reduced severe PB in all patients; however, sitting balance and trunk performance did not improve in 1 patient. Future studies to examine the adaptability of this task and long-term effects are needed. PMID: 33345722 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Assessing the efficacy of different upper limb hemiparesis interventions on improving health-related quality of life in stroke patients: a systematic review.
CONCLUSION: The review demonstrates the need for upper limb intervention studies to focus on QOL as a primary outcome measure in addition to the functional outcomes currently used. PMID: 23611858 [PubMed - in process]

Effects of Exercise Therapy on Balance Capacity in Chronic Stroke: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— This systematic review and meta-analysis showed that balance capacities can be improved by well-targeted exercise therapy programs in the chronic phase after stroke. Specifically, balance and/or weight-shifting and gait training were identified as successful training regimens.

Improving Access to Thrombolysis and Inhospital Management Times in Ischemic Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—An interactive and multifaceted training program targeting emergency professionals was significantly associated with an increased access to thrombolysis, especially within 4 hours and 30 minutes.Clinical Trial Registration—URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT02814760.

Neuroimaging Identifies Patients Most Likely to Respond to a Restorative Stroke Therapy Clinical Sciences
Background and Purpose—Patient heterogeneity reduces statistical power in clinical trials of restorative therapies. Valid predictors of treatment responsiveness are needed, and several have been studied with a focus on corticospinal tract (CST) injury. We studied performance of 4 such measures for predicting behavioral gains in response to motor training therapy.Methods—Patients with subacute-chronic hemiparetic stroke (n=47) received standardized arm motor therapy, and change in arm Fugl-Meyer score was calculated from baseline to 1 month post-therapy. Injury measures calculated from baseline magnetic resonance imagin...

Vagus Nerve Stimulation Enhances Stable Plasticity and Generalization of Stroke Recovery Basic Sciences
Conclusions—This study provides the first evidence that VNS paired with rehabilitative training after stroke (1) doubles long-lasting recovery on a complex task involving forelimb supination, (2) doubles recovery on a simple motor task that was not paired with VNS, and (3) enhances structural plasticity in motor networks.

Improving balance with wobble board exercises in stroke patients: single-blind, randomized clinical trial.
Conclusions: Wobble board exercises, when combined with the conventional physiotherapy, are safe and effective in restoring functional balance in patients with hemiplegia following ischemic strokes. PMID: 31348727 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Locomotor training intensity after stroke: Effects of interval type and mode.
Conclusions: Both short and long-interval HIIT elicit high intensities but emphasize different dosing parameters. From these preliminary findings and previous studies, we hypothesize that overground and treadmill short-interval HIIT could be optimal for improving gait speed and overground long-interval HIIT could be optimal for improving gait endurance.

Verbal feedback enhances motor learning during post-stroke gait retraining.
CONCLUSIONS: Addition of individualized verbal feedback (FF+PT) to a single session of gait training may enhance within- and across-session learning of targeted gait variables in people post-stroke, and merits more investigation. PMID: 32942960 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Validation of an immersive virtual reality system for training near and far space neglect in individuals with stroke: a pilot study.
CONCLUSIONS: Positive effects of the immersive VR program for far space neglect are suggested by the results of the present pilot study. However, further studies with rigorous designs are needed to validate its clinical effectiveness. PMID: 28701101 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Past, present, and future of stroke in middle‐income countries: the Brazilian experience
ConclusionsThe evolution of stroke care in Brazil over the last decade is a pathway that exemplifies the challenges that middle‐income countries have to face in order to improve stroke prevention, treatment and rehabilitation. The reported Brazilian experience can be extrapolated to understand the past, present, and future of stroke care in middle‐income countries.

Does Comprehensive Stroke Center Recommended Nurse Training Result in Earlier In-Hospital Stroke Recognition? (P2.324)
Conclusions:There was a delay in initiation of stroke alert in areas where staff did not receive extra training per CSC guidelines, though this did not reach significance due difference in sample size. Expanding the CSC training to all staff would benefit hospital-wide stroke alerts. More data is needed to confirm this.Disclosure: Dr. Gregath has nothing to disclose.

Leadership of Certified Stroke Center Programs (P3.126)
CONCLUSION: In this first survey of certified stroke center leadership, we found that the vast majority of sites were lead by a neurologist, and nearly 1/3rd by a vascular neurologist. As greater numbers of vascular neurologists are trained and board-certified, their numbers in stroke center leadership may increase.Disclosure: Dr. Ramirez has nothing to disclose.

Prehospital stroke scales in urban environments: A systematic review
Conclusions: Prehospital stroke scales varied in their accuracy and missed up to 30% of acute strokes in the field. Inconsistencies in performance may be due to sample size disparity, variability in stroke scale training, and divergent provider educational standards. Although LAPSS performed more consistently, visual comparison of graphical analysis revealed that LAPSS and CPSS had similar diagnostic capabilities.
