Efficacy of motor imagery additional to motor-based therapy in the recovery of motor function of the upper limb in post-stroke individuals: a systematic review.
Conclusion. There is evidence showing that MI associated with motor-based therapy is an effective tool in improving the motor function of upper limbs of post-stroke individuals. However, more studies are needed to establish criteria for frequency and duration of intervention, and what better type of MI should be used. PMID: 31264520 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Decision-Making on Referral to Primary Care Physiotherapy After Inpatient Stroke Rehabilitation
Worldwide, stroke is a leading cause of death and disability.1 Although incidence rates are expected to increase over the next few decades, survival rates are expected to improve. Consequently, more stroke survivors will have to learn to live with the consequences. After acute stroke care or rehabilitation, returning home is one of the primary goals for stroke survivors.2 In the Netherlands, 65 % of stroke survivors return home immediately after acute hospital care.3 The remaining 35% continue inpatient rehabilitation in a rehabilitation center (RC) or geriatric rehabilitation center (GRC) before returning home.

Development of a convolutional neural network (CNN) based assessment exercise recommendation system for individuals with chronic stroke: a feasibility study
CONCLUSIONS: This CNN deep-learning model provided time-effective and accurate prediction of clinical assessment results and exercise recommendations. This study provides preliminary evidence to support the use of biomechanical data and AI to assist treatment planning and shorten the decision-making process in rehabilitation.PMID:36189968 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2022.2127669

Executive dysfunction post-stroke: an insight into the perspectives of physiotherapists.
Conclusions: Current results demonstrate that ED has negative implications for physiotherapy rehabilitation post-stroke. Although further interdisciplinary research is warranted, the present results suggest that physiotherapists should be aware of the presence of ED in people post-stroke and develop strategies to minimise the impact of ED on physiotherapy rehabilitation. Implications for Rehabilitation Physiotherapists report a lack of knowledge of ED post-stroke and a requirement for future learning and training regarding the optimal management of people with ED undergoing physiotherapy rehabilitation post-stroke. ED has ...

Physical rehabilitation approaches for the recovery of function and mobility following stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Physical rehabilitation, comprising a selection of components from different approaches, is effective for recovery of function and mobility after stroke. Evidence related to dose of physical therapy is limited by substantial heterogeneity and does not support robust conclusions. No one approach to physical rehabilitation is any more (or less) effective in promoting recovery of function and mobility after stroke. Therefore, evidence indicates that physical rehabilitation should not be limited to compartmentalised, named approaches, but rather should comprise clearly defined, well-described, evidenced-based phys...

Safety and efficacy of co-careldopa as an add-on therapy to occupational and physical therapy in patients after stroke (DARS): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
Publication date: June 2019Source: The Lancet Neurology, Volume 18, Issue 6Author(s): Gary A Ford, Bipin B Bhakta, Alastair Cozens, Suzanne Hartley, Ivana Holloway, David Meads, John Pearn, Sharon Ruddock, Catherine M Sackley, Eirini-Christina Saloniki, Gillian Santorelli, Marion F Walker, Amanda J FarrinSummaryBackgroundDopamine is a key modulator of striatal function and learning and might improve motor recovery after stroke. Previous small trials of dopamine agonists after stroke provide equivocal evidence of effectiveness on improving motor recovery. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of co-careldopa plus routi...

Patients' and therapists' experience and perception of exoskeleton-based physiotherapy during subacute stroke rehabilitation: a qualitative analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with stroke were even more optimistic than therapists toward the experience and benefits of exoskeleton-based gait training during subacute stroke rehabilitation. Future clinical practice should consider the balance between actual and perceived benefits, as well as the potential barriers to integrating an exoskeleton into stroke rehabilitation.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONPowered robotic exoskeletons can be used to provide higher duration and more repetitious walking practice for non-ambulatory patients with stroke.Patients with stroke view exoskeleton-based physiotherapy highly favorably, attributi...

A retrospective study to assess resource utilization and costs in patients with post-stroke spasticity in the United Kingdom.
CONCLUSION: Costs after stroke for patients developing PSS are twice as high compared to patients who do not develop it, with the major driver being the number of hospital admissions. This highlights the need for better recording and closer management of PSS. PMID: 29490512 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effects of the brain-damaged side after stroke on the learning of a balance task in a non-immersive virtual reality environment.
Conclusion: Stroke survivors can learn balance tasks (H1), and the right hemisphere damaged patients demonstrate more errors than those with left hemisphere injury in higher complexity conditions (H2). PMID: 32090670 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Linking of concepts measured by SATIS-Stroke and the PM-Scale to the international classification of functioning, disability and health
CONCLUSION: SATIS-Stroke addresses more issues regarding the domains of Learning and Applying Knowledge, Mobility, Self-Care, Domestic Life, and Major Life Areas, whereas the PM-Scale addresses more issues regarding the General Tasks and Demands, Communication, and Community, Social and Civic Life. Both instruments equally address issues related to Interpersonal Interactions and Relationships.PMID:34605744 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2021.1983908

Motor imagery: a systematic review of its effectiveness in the rehabilitation of the upper limb following a stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Motor imagery, combined with conventional therapy (physiotherapy or occupational therapy), seems to have positive effects on the motor rehabilitation of the upper limb following a stroke. Further research is needed to improve the heterogeneity of the interventions and to evaluate their effectiveness in the long term. PMID: 29480509 [PubMed - in process]
