The use of augmented reality for rehabilitation after stroke: a narrative review.
CONCLUSION: AR systems are currently being used for stroke rehabilitation in a variety of ways however the technology is in its infancy and warrants further investigation. A consistent definition of AR must be developed and further research is required to determine the possibilities of using AR to promote practice of occupations in a more contextually relevant environment to enhance motor learning and generalisation to other tasks. This could include using AR to bring the home environment into the hospital setting to enhance practice of prioritised occupations before returning home. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION There is...

Inpatient stroke rehabilitation: prediction of clinical outcomes using a machine-learning approach
In clinical practice, therapists often rely on clinical outcome measures to quantify a patient ’s impairment and function. Predicting a patient’s discharge outcome using baseline clinical information may help c...

Experience of enriched rehabilitation in the chronic phase of stroke.
Conclusion: A therapy program including task-specific training and environmental enrichment may provide late-phase stroke survivors with perceived improvements in functional ability, knowledge insights, perceptions of rehabilitation needs and enriching emotional impacts.Implications for rehabilitationETT is feasible and may lead to perceived improvements in function and a change of mindset, even in the chronic phase after stroke.Trust in the competence of the rehabilitation staff is an important factor in compliance with the high-intensity training in the ETT program.Given the lack of stimulation and socialization among ma...

Correction
In the article by McCabe et  al, Comparison of Robotics, Functional Electrical Stimulation, and Motor Learning Methods for Treatment of Persistent Upper Extremity Dysfunction After Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial, published in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2015;96:981-90 (https://www.archives-pmr.org/ article/S0003-9993(14)01228-3/fulltext), Table 5 contained an error. In the last column (‘Mean Gain Score’), row one (ML Group, FM Score) the value is shown as 11 points on the FM scale.

Neuropsychological profile associated with moyamoya disease: A case report.
CONCLUSIONS: MMD significantly impacts cognition and daily functioning in affected patients. This is further exacerbated by additional vascular incidents requiring surgical intervention. While there is a clear growth of research on MMD, limited information is available on the neurocognitive and neuropsychiatric outcomes of the disease process. Neuropsychological data from the current case study is closely examined to provide a unique example of the lateralized neuropsychological profile and deficit pattern in a historically high functioning individual diagnosed with MMD following a stroke.

Rehabilitation After Complete Hemisensory Loss: Report of Two Cases
The role and function that proprioception plays in movement and motor learning have been debated since the 19th century but can be difficult to isolate and study. Lesions at various points along the proprioceptive pathway result in afferent paresis that can be significantly disabling. Compensatory mechanisms can help with successful rehabilitation and provide an opportunity to study the role of these mechanisms in sensory feedback. Here, we present two cases of adult patients with complete hemisensory loss after a stroke: one patient with a cortical stroke and the other one with a thalamic stroke. First, we see that that m...

Using telerehabilitation to improve cognitive function in post-stroke survivors: is this the time for the continuity of care?
Post-stroke cognitive disorders can affect different domains, depending on typology of stroke and lesion localization, onset time, age and diagnostic tools used. In recent years, telerehabilitation using virtual reality has been used to reduce the healthcare costs encouraging continuity of care. The aim of our study is to evaluate the efficacy of a virtual reality rehabilitation system in improving cognitive function in stroke survivors. Forty patients affected by stroke were enrolled in this study and randomized into either the control or the experimental groups in order of recruitment. The study lasted 6 months, and incl...

Detecting compensatory movements of stroke survivors using pressure distribution data and machine learning algorithms
Compensatory movements are commonly employed by stroke survivors during seated reaching and may have negative effects on their long-term recovery. Detecting compensation is useful for coaching the patient to r...

Feasibility of integrating robotic exoskeleton gait training in inpatient rehabilitation.
CONCLUSION: Integrating Ekso gait training into clinical practice was not seamless but appears feasible. Barriers were addressed within the rehabilitation team and received administrative support in a process lasting several months. Patients enjoyed walking in Ekso and felt secure within the device. Implications for rehabilitation Integrating Ekso gait training into clinical practice during inpatient rehabilitation is feasible. Overcoming barriers to implementation required administrative support and clinician persistence over several months. Patients tolerated Ekso sessions well, without any complications or adverse incid...

Stroke survivors' experiences of occupation in hospital-based stroke rehabilitation: a qualitative exploration.
CONCLUSION: This study provides a preliminary understanding of how stroke survivors experience occupational engagement during rehabilitation. There was an apparent shift in priorities with therapy considered the most important occupation and a strong need expressed for rest and relaxation to be factored into people's days. It appears the increasing activity levels may not always align with people's occupations and that due consideration of this malalignment may further enhance engagement and outcomes. Implications for rehabilitation During hospital-based stroke rehabilitation, stroke survivors prioritized the occupations o...

The feasibility and acceptability of smart home technology using the Howz system for people with stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: The Howz system was feasible and acceptable for stroke survivors. It gave users and their family an enhanced sense of security and peace of mind that help would be at hand if needed. Implications for rehabilitation Although most stroke survivors are elderly and often suffer physical, visual and cognitive disabilities which are often considered as barriers to using smart home technology, this project has demonstrated the well-developed smart home technology is feasible and acceptable. Users were able and willing to engage with the technology (to varying degrees) and had no concerns about invasion of privacy. Th...

The immediate influence of implicit motor learning strategies on spatiotemporal gait parameters in stroke patients: a randomized within-subjects design.
CONCLUSION:: Analogy instructions and environmental constraints can lead to specific, immediate changes in the walking performance and were in general experienced as feasible by the participants. However, the response of an individual patient may vary quite considerably. PMID: 30537847 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
