A brief review of motor imagery and bimanual coordination
Motor imagery is increasingly being used in clinical settings, such as in neurorehabilitation and brain computer interface (BCI). In stroke, patients lose upper limb function and must re-learn bimanual coordination skills necessary for the activities of daily living. Physiotherapists integrate motor imagery with physical rehabilitation to accelerate recovery. In BCIs, users are often asked to imagine a movement, often with sparse instructions. The EEG pattern that coincides with this cognitive task is captured, then used to execute an external command, such as operating a neuroprosthetic device. As such, BCIs are dependent...

Why John Fetterman Needs Closed Captioning Technology After His Stroke
Five months after the Democratic nominee in one of the nation’s most competitive Senate races suffered a stroke, there’s still a lot to learn about his recovery. In the final weeks of the Pennsylvania Senate campaign, a key Republican attack against the state’s lieutenant governor, John Fetterman, has centered on his use of closed-captioning technology, which translates audio into text on a screen in real-time. He relied on the technology during an interview conducted Friday with NBC News, his first in-person, on-camera sit-down since his stroke in May. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] “...

Assessment of Walking Speed and Distance Post-Stroke Increases After Providing a Theory-Based Toolkit
Conclusions: Providing a comprehensive toolkit to hospitals with professional leaders likely contributed to increasing 10mWT and 6MWT administration during inpatient and outpatient stroke rehabilitation. Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A390).

Development of a Berg Balance Scale Short-Form Using a Machine Learning Approach in Patients With Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The BBS-ML seems to be a promising short-form alternative to improve administrative efficiency. Future research is needed to examine the psychometric properties and clinical usage of the 6-item BBS-ML in various settings and samples.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A402).PMID:36047823 | DOI:10.1097/NPT.0000000000000417

Efficacy of sitting balance training with delayed visual feedback among patients with stroke: a randomized crossover clinical trial
Conclusion] Sensory-motor and cognitive learning was facilitated through balance training with delayed visual feedback, and the internal model was updated with the efference copy of error correction. Sensory-motor feedback to visual stimulation can improve postural control, balance, and activities of daily living.PMID:35937630 | PMC:PMC9345753 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.540

Explicit versus implicit lower extremity sensory retraining for post-stroke chronic sensory deficits: a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Sensory rehabilitation treatment by either ESR or IRE led to similar clinically significant changes in the performance of the lower extremity and participation in subjects with sensory loss post-stroke. Both treatment protocols are easy to implement in an outpatient clinic. .CLINICALTRIALS.GOV REGISTRATION: NCT01988220. Implications for rehabilitationStandardized, structured, sensory-focused training can improve balance and gait in subjects with chronic post-stroke sensory impairment.Both explicit and implicit learning-based sensory protocols focused on the lower extremity effectively improved balance, mobilit...

Optimization of machine learning method combined with brain-computer interface rehabilitation system
Conclusion] The images based on Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) index improvement, and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) show that the sensory region of brain movement has become a concentrated activation phenomenon. Besides strengthening the feature extraction method also lets the elbow has an obvious recovery effect.PMID:35527849 | PMC:PMC9057683 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.379

A randomized sham-controlled trial on the effects of dual-tDCS “during” physical therapy on lower limb performance in sub-acute stroke and a comparison to the previous study using a “before” stimulation protocol
ConclusionA single-session of dual-tDCS during PT induced no additional advantage on lower limb performance. The “before” group seemed to induce better acute effects; however, the benefits of the after-effects on motor learning for both stimulation protocols were probably not different.Trial registration Current randomized controlled trials was prospectively registered at the clinicaltrials.gov, registration number: NCT04051671. The date of registration was 09/08/2019.
