Neurodevelopmental outcome after neonatal perforator stroke
AimTo assess outcome after neonatal perforator stroke in the largest cohort to date. MethodSurvivors from a cohort of children diagnosed with neonatal perforator stroke using cranial ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging were eligible for inclusion. Recovery and Recurrence Questionnaire score, presence of cerebral palsy (CP), and crude outcome were assessed, specifically (1) the ability to walk independently, (2) participation in regular education, and (3) the presence of epilepsy. ResultsThirty‐seven patients (20 males, 17 females) aged 3 to 14 years (mean age 8y) were included in the study: 14 with isolated single ...

Academic outcome in pediatric ischemic stroke.
Abstract An important cause of acquired brain injury in children, pediatric ischemic stroke can cause sequelae across a wide range of cognitive domains, including verbal reasoning and processing speed. As a result, survivors are especially vulnerable to academic difficulties and face unique challenges compared to their peers. Despite this knowledge, pediatric stroke remains an understudied neurological condition, and its impact on school functioning poorly understood. The present clinical study addressed academic outcome in this population using a multifaceted approach. Patients were recruited for participation fr...

Executive behavior and functional abilities in children with perinatal stroke and the associated caregiver impact.
Abstract Perinatal stroke is the most common form of stroke in childhood and is followed by a variety of outcomes, with many children experiencing specific functional and neuropsychological deficits. The association of these outcomes with the psychosocial impact caregivers face is not well documented. The goal of our pilot study was to examine caregivers' perception of executive behavior and functional abilities among children with perinatal stroke, and how these outcomes impact the caregivers. We administered three questionnaires to primary caregivers of children with perinatal stroke to obtain caregiver-reported...

How Handwriting Behaviors During Problem Solving Are Related to Problem-Solving Success in an Engineering Course
Publication date: Available online 27 April 2019Source: Contemporary Educational PsychologyAuthor(s): Thomas F. Stahovich, Timothy Van Arsdale, Richard E. MayerAbstractIf we carefully observe the spatial and temporal organization of students' pen strokes as they solve an engineering problem, can we predict their ability to achieve the correct answer? To address this question, 122 college students were asked to solve exam problems in an engineering course using a smartpen that recorded their writing as digitized timestamped pen strokes. The pen stroke data was used to compute a collection of 10 metrics characterizing variou...

Clinical and training practices: A survey of pediatric neuropsychologists serving inpatient rehabilitation
Child Neuropsychol. 2021 Nov 1:1-25. doi: 10.1080/09297049.2021.1993809. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeuropsychologists in inpatient pediatric rehabilitation settings collaborate with an interdisciplinary team to educate, evaluate, and provide intervention to patients with acquired brain injury and their families, but there are no known studies that describe or define these clinical services. Thirty-one neuropsychologists in pediatric inpatient rehabilitation settings completed an online survey. Neuropsychologists (68.2% female; 86.4% with PhD versus PsyD) from the U.S. and Canada, who represented 22 pediatric inpatient ...

COVID-19 mental health impact among children with early brain injury and associated conditions
This study describes the impact of COVID-19 among a clinical research sample of children with early brain injury and associated conditions. Between March 2020 and March 2021, 64 children and their parents participated. Children ranged in age between 3 and 14 years (M = 6 years, 3 months; SD = 2 years, 4 months) with a range of diagnoses (i.e., neonatal stroke, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), congenital heart disease (CHD) and preterm birth (<32 weeks)). The abbreviated CoRonavIrus Health Impact Survey (CRISIS) was completed by parents as part of their child's routine intake for neuropsychological services. Questi...
