Community ambulation of stroke survivors at 6 months follow-up: an observational study on sociodemographic and sub-acute clinical indicators.
CONCLUSIONS: The presence of risk factors and clinical complications delay significantly the walking ability restoration and return to social life. Such status consistently with the patient's compliance must not postpone the rehabilitation relatively, rehabilitation must be facilitated with targeted programs taking care particularly of people with negative indicators for recovery of community ambulation 6 months post-stroke. CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Early indicators are considerable in order to predict a targeted prognosis and better provide a tailored rehabilitation program.

Correlates of participation six months after stroke in an Italian population: results from the RIPS (Post-Stroke Intensive Rehabilitation) Study
CONCLUSIONS: In our cohort of patients addressing postacute stroke rehabilitation, prestroke participation levels were on average good, while they were severely reduced six months after stroke for all the considered items except reading and making trips. Higher FAI at follow-up was independently associated with a higher functional level and no cognitive impairment at follow-up, with lower stroke severity in the postacute phase, as well as a higher anamnestic participation score.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Our results suggest that investigating prestroke participation may be highly relevant to predict, and possibly addr...

Post-stroke rehabilitation in Italy: inconsistencies across regional strategies.
Conclusion: The study highlights the issue that, in Italy, delivery of post-stroke rehabilitation services is not uniform nation-wide and varies substantially across regions. The lack of a comprehensive postacute stroke strategy is a major obstacle to service availability. Clinical Rehabilitation Impact: The study results advocate the need for a consistent and comprehensive strategic planning of post-stroke rehabilitation in Italy.

Systematic review of guidelines to identify recommendations for upper limb robotic rehabilitation after stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review has identified many opportunities to modernize and otherwise improve stroke patients' upper limb robotic therapy. Rehabilitation assisted by robot or electromechanical devices for stroke needs to be improved in clinical practice guidelines in particular in terms of applicability.

Redefining a minimal assessment protocol for stroke rehabilitation: the new "Protocollo di Minima per l'ICtus" - PMIC2020
CONCLUSIONS: The PMIC2020 provides an updated tool for the multidimensional rehabilitation assessment of the stroke patient, at any stage of the rehabilitation pathway; it aims to provide a shared minimum set of variables defining patient's needs and outcomes across different rehabilitation facilities and settings.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: The PMIC2020 identifies patient's needs, outcomes, and predictors of response to specific interventions in Stroke rehabilitation and provide ground for a highly needed Stroke Registry.PMID:34042407 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.21.06638-7
