Revisiting the Concept of Minimal Detectable Change for Patient-Reported Outcome Measures
Phys Ther. 2022 Jun 6:pzac068. doi: 10.1093/ptj/pzac068. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInterpreting change is a requisite component of clinical decision making for physical therapists. Physical therapists often interpret change using minimal detectable change (MDC) values. Current MDC formulas are informed by classical test theory and calculated with group-level error data. This approach assumes that measurement error is the same across a measure's scale and confines the MDC value to the sample characteristics of the study. Alternatively, an item response theory (IRT) approach calculates separate estimates of measurement e...

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...

Clinical properties of the 6-clicks and Functional Status Score for the ICU in a hospital in the United Arab Emirates
CONCLUSION: Both instruments demonstrate good responsiveness in adults hospitalized in the United Arab Emirates. The FSS-ICU exhibited several advantages in performance which suggests greater clinical utility than the 6-clicks. Minimal important differences were generated, which has not before been reported for the 6-clicks.PMID:35613651 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2022.04.008

Recent Advances in the Neural Control of Movements: Lessons for Functional Recovery
Phys Ther Res. 2021 Sep 29;25(1):1-11. doi: 10.1298/ptr.R0018. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTWe review the current views on the control and coordination of movements following the traditions set by Nikolai Bernstein. In particular, we focus on the theory of neural control of effectors - from motor units to individual muscles, to joints, limbs, and to the whole body - with spatial referent coordinates organized into a hierarchy with multiple few-to-many mappings. Further, we discuss synergies ensuring stability of natural human movements within the uncontrolled manifold hypothesis. Synergies are organized within the neural contr...

Gluteus Maximus Muscle Activation Characteristics During a Chair-Rise in Adults With Chronic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Despite apparent unilateral muscle weakness post-stroke, bilateral decreases in gluteus maximus activation magnitudes and compounding onset deficits of the paretic extremity were observed during chair-rising. Further research is needed to determine whether interventions maximizing bilateral activation magnitudes and improving temporal activation congruency during chair-rising will carry over to functional gainsVideo Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A387).PMID:35561104 | DOI:10.1097/NPT.0000000000000404

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 5814: Effects of Robot-Assisted Gait Training with Body Weight Support on Gait and Balance in Stroke Patients
This study investigated the effects of robot-assisted gait training with body weight support on gait and balance in stroke patients. The study participants comprised 24 patients diagnosed with stroke. Patients were randomly assigned to four groups of six: robot A, B, C, and non-robot. The body weight support (BWS) for the harness of the robot was set to 30% of the patient’s body weight in robot group A, 50% in robot group B, and 70% in robot group C. All experimental groups received robot-assisted gait training and general physical therapy. The non-robot group underwent gait training using a p-bar, a treadmil...

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
