Using Machine Learning to develop a short-form measure assessing 5 functions in patients with stroke
This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning based short measure (the ML-5F) to assess 5 functions (activities of daily living (ADL), balance, upper extremity (UE) and lower extremity (LE) motor function, and mobility) in patients with stroke.Design: Secondary data from a previous study. A follow-up study assessed patients with stroke using the Barthel Index (BI), Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke (PASS), and Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement (STREAM) at hospital admission and discharge.

Motor Imagery Training on Muscle Strength and Gait Performance in Ambulant Stroke Subjects: A Randomized Clinical Trial
50%-65% of stroke survivors have residual motor deficits; principal among them is hemi paretic gait that limits mobility, increases the risk of falls and promoting sedentary life style. Increased strength in the lower extremity muscles has been shown to be associated with improvements in walking performance. Recently Motor Imagery training (MIT) are enhancing motor learning, neural reorganization and cortical activation in stroke patients. However, efficacy MIT involving lower extremity mobility tasks are limited in stroke rehabilitation.

A Multifaceted Approach to the Enhancement of Motor Recovery After Stroke
Despite aggressive conventional therapy, lasting hemiplegia persists in a large percentage of stroke survivors. This project critically reviewed the rationale behind targeting motor recovery at multiple sites along the motor learning network by combining robotic therapy with pharmacotherapy and virtual reality-based reward learning for stroke survivors.

Combining Robotic & Assistive Technologies To Improve Outcomes: A Pilot Study Quantifying Stroke Rehabilitation
Stroke is the leading causes of long-term disability in the United States. Unfortunately, many survivors experience upper extremity (UE) impairment with few rehabilitation opportunities, secondary to a lack of voluntary muscle control. We developed a novel UE rehabilitation paradigm (TDS-HM) that uses a Tongue Drive System (TDS) to control a robotic device (HandMentor: HM), encouraging active learning through a game-like user interface. We hypothesize TDS-HM training will improve motor performance, reduce UE impairment, and improve quality of life in stroke survivors.

Exoskeleton-assisted Anthropomorphic Movement Training (EAMT) for Post-stroke Upper Limb Rehabilitation: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Stroke is the leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide, and it places a substantial burden on healthcare services and the socioeconomic system.1 More than two-thirds of individuals with stroke have upper extremity motor impairment and functional deficits at hospital admission,2, 3 manifesting as muscle weakness, loss of coordination and abnormal synergies.4 Moreover, upper limb dysfunction leads to long-term limitations in activities of daily living (ADL) and social participation.5 Extensive studies have reported that participants can benefit from high-intensity, task-specific training programs based on motor-le...

Returning to School after Pediatric Stroke
Returning to school after a pediatric stroke can be overwhelming. Brain injury of any kind can have an impact on learning and daily life. Research shows that many students who have had a brain injury benefit from monitoring of academic progress and accommodations in school (1). Your student may need a new school plan after their stroke to help them be successful.

The Reality of Virtual Reality In Stroke Rehabilitation
To design, implement and evaluate the effectiveness of a knowledge translation (KT) strategy to support therapists in acquiring proficiency with the Interactive Rehabilitation Exercise System (IREX; GestureTek) while emphasizing integration of motor learning strategies (MLS) during virtual reality (VR) interventions. VR systems are promising treatment options in stroke rehabilitation because they can incorporate MLS supporting motivating task-oriented practice.

Invited Commentary on Comparison of Robotics, FES, and Motor Learning Methods for Treatment of Persistent Upper Extremity Dysfunction after Stroke: a Randomized Controlled Trial
In this issue of Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Jessica McCabe and colleagues report findings from their methodologically sound dose-matched clinical trial in 39 patients beyond 6 months post stroke. In this phase II trial, the effects of 60 treatment sessions, each involving 3.5 hours of intensive practice plus either 1.5 hours of functional electrical stimulation (FES) or a shoulder-arm robotic therapy, were compared with 5 hours of intensive daily practice alone. Although no significant between-group differences were found on the primary outcome measure of Arm Motor Ability Test (AMAT) and the seconda...

Aphasia-accessible Spatial Neglect Care
To learn whether the Catherine Bergego Scale (CBS) via the Kessler Foundation Neglect Assessment Process, and prism adaptation therapy (PAT; Barrett and Houston, 2019) provided aphasia-accessible spatial neglect care, in a left-handed, Cambodian-speaking stroke survivor (55 years) with right spatial neglect and global aphasia. Right-sided spatial neglect affects up to 50% of left brain stroke survivors, however many are never diagnosed or treated. A therapist can encounter great difficulty instructing people with communication disability (aphasia) during neglect assessment and treatment.
