Community ambulation of stroke survivors at 6 months follow-up: an observational study on sociodemographic and sub-acute clinical indicators.
CONCLUSIONS: The presence of risk factors and clinical complications delay significantly the walking ability restoration and return to social life. Such status consistently with the patient's compliance must not postpone the rehabilitation relatively, rehabilitation must be facilitated with targeted programs taking care particularly of people with negative indicators for recovery of community ambulation 6 months post-stroke.
CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Early indicators are considerable in order to predict a targeted prognosis and better provide a tailored rehabilitation program.

Cognitive-Motor Interference During Functional Mobility After Stroke: State of the Science and Implications for Future Research
Abstract: Cognitive-motor interference (CMI) is evident when simultaneous performance of a cognitive task and a motor task results in deterioration in performance in one or both of the tasks, relative to performance of each task separately. The purpose of this review is to present a framework for categorizing patterns of CMI and to examine the specific patterns of CMI evident in published studies comparing single-task and dual-task performance of cognitive and motor tasks during gait and balance activities after stroke. We also examine the literature for associations between patterns of CMI and a history of falls, as well ...

Reimagining Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery Across the Care Continuum: Results from a Design-Thinking Workshop to Identify Challenges and Propose Solutions
Systems for stroke rehabilitation and recovery are variable and fragmented; stroke survivors often experience gaps in care with detrimental effects on their recovery. We designed and hosted a multidisciplinary and interactive workshop to discuss challenges facing patients recovering from stroke and brainstorm solutions.Forty one participants including clinicians, researchers, and stroke survivors attended the workshop. Participants were surveyed beforehand about challenges facing stroke recovery and results were tabulated as a word cloud.

The trajectory of pain and pain intensity in the upper extremity after stroke over time: a prospective study in a rehabilitation population
CONCLUSIONS: The proportion of patients reporting upper extremity pain after stroke was considerable, despite a significant decrease in 2.5 years. In patients reporting persistent pain, the intensity did not change over time.PMID:36628499 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2022.2164801

Review of Therapeutic Electrical Stimulation for Dorsiflexion Assist and Orthotic Substitution From the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine Stroke Movement Interventions Subcommittee
This article provides clinicians with information to guide them in the use of electrical stimulation orthotic substitute devices, discusses current research about the use of electrical stimulation orthotic substitute devices for therapeutic and orthotic purposes, and compares the use of electrical stimulation orthotic substitute devices and AFOs. There is insufficient evidence thus far to conclude that walking with an electrical stimulation orthotic substitute device is superior to walking with an AFO, but electrical stimulation orthotic substitute devices may be the optimal choice for some patients.

Self-management: challenges for allied healthcare professionals in stroke rehabilitation - a focus group study.
Conclusion: Professional perceptions and beliefs are important factors to take into account when implementing stroke self-management programmes. Before professionals can enable stroke survivors to self-manage, they first need support in acquiring knowledge and skills regarding post-stroke self-management. Moreover, professionals could benefit from behavioural change models, and professionals recognised that stroke self-management interventions would be most beneficial when delivered post-discharge at people's homes. Implications for Rehabilitation Post-stroke self-management is a learning process with different levels depe...

Longitudinal changes in activity participation in the first year post-stroke and association with depressive symptoms.
CONCLUSIONS: Activity participation improves during the first year of recovery post-stroke in stroke survivors with mild neurological stroke severity and is associated with depressive symptoms over time and at 12-months post-stroke. Implications for rehabilitation Improvements in participation occur in the first 3-months post-stroke and continue to a lesser degree in the first year after stroke. Depressive symptoms are associated with lower participation at 12-months. A multidimensional approach targeting depressive symptoms and increasing participation in the early months post-stroke and throughout the first-year after st...

Understandings stroke in rural Malaysia: ethnographic insights.
Conclusion: Lack of knowledge about stroke and its symptoms was evident in participants' account. Findings emphasize the importance of knowledge based health interventions, especially in health education strategies for stroke survivors to reduce delays to diagnosis and potentially improve health outcomes post-stroke. Implications for rehabilitation Stroke survivors often form explanatory models of stroke that draw from both biomedical and traditional explanations of stroke. Understanding how people derive lay understandings of stroke can contribute towards developing the goals and activities that facilitate recovery and re...

A systematic review of studies investigating the care of stroke survivors in long-term care facilities.
CONCLUSIONS: The care of stroke survivors in LTC facilities is lacking in rehabilitation, stroke specific care and secondary stroke prevention. This needs to be addressed through conducting further research to build a strong body of evidence to influence change in the care of this vulnerable group of patients. Implications for Rehabilitation Care of stroke survivors in long-term care facilities Stroke survivors make up almost a quarter of residents in long-term care facilities. They suffer from functional impairments and many other disabilities as a result of more severe stroke, precluding them from living in their own hom...

Falls and fear of falling after stroke: a case-control study
Conclusions Compared to non-stroke individuals, patients with stroke were significantly more likely to experience recurrent falls and fear of falling. Falls in stroke were not explained by any of the outcome measures used, while fear of falling was predicted by functional ambulation level. This study has identified potentially modifiable risk factor with which to devise future prevention strategies for falls in stroke patients.

Exploring perceptions of stroke survivors and caregivers about secondary prevention: a longitudinal qualitative study.
CONCLUSION: Despite experiencing some barriers, stroke survivors adopted lifestyle changes transitioning through different stages of change. Stroke prevention education and interventions from experts would be helpful later in the rehabilitation phase (once at home) and adopting a patient-family centered approach may assist stroke survivors and their caregivers in the uptake of secondary stroke prevention activities. Implications for rehabilitation Stroke is perceived as a soul searching experience by stroke survivors and their caregivers motivating them to enquire its causes and adopting lifestyle changes to prevent a futu...

Perceived challenges in delivering comprehensive care for patients following stroke: a qualitative study of stroke care providers in Guangdong Province, China.
Conclusions: While comprehensive stroke care has become a priority in China, our study highlights some important gaps in the current provision of stroke care.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONComprehensive integrated stroke care is essential to maximize the effectiveness of stroke services and in China it needs to be further improved.Multidisciplinary stroke care systems should strengthen collaborations across all relevant disciplines and should include a clear role for registered nurses.Follow-up care after discharge needs more engagement with family caregivers.
