Effects of gait training using the hybrid assistive limb  ® in recovery-phase stroke patients: A 2-month follow-up, randomized, controlled study.
CONCLUSIONS: The results suggested that a gait training program based on HAL ® may improve independent walking more efficiently than CGT at 1 and 2 months after intervention. PMID: 28222558 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Is there influence of the load addition during treadmill training on cardiovascular parameters and gait performance in patients with Stroke? A randomized clinical trial.
CONCLUSIONS: Load addition on NPLL did not alter cardiovascular parameters and gait training provide better gait performance of subacute stroke patients, which indicates this therapy can be considered useful and safe for these patients. PMID: 28222556 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Are unstable support surfaces superior to stable support surfaces during trunk rehabilitation after stroke? A systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: Trunk training on unstable support surfaces seemed to be superior to stable support surfaces in improving static and dynamic balance. However, more research is necessary, since the risk of bias of the included studies was high. Implications for Rehabilitation Trunk training on unstable surfaces seems to be superior to stable surfaces in improving static and dynamic balance. Physio balls, air cushions, balance pads, and unstable boards are appropriate supports to enhance balance during stroke rehabilitation. Implementing unstable supports early in rehabilitation might be more beneficial. PMID: 28482696 [Pu...

Effect of visuospatial neglect on spatial navigation and heading after stroke
Conclusion The ipsilesional bias arising from VSN influences the modulation of heading in response to obstacles and, along with the adoption of the “riskier” strategies, contribute to the higher number colliders and poor goal-directed walking abilities in stroke survivors with VSN. Future research should focus on developing assessment and training tools for complex locomotor tasks such as obstacle avoidance in this population.

Effectiveness of 7-day versus weekday-only rehabilitation for stroke patients in an acute-care hospital: a retrospective cohort study.
CONCLUSION: This retrospective cohort study demonstrated that extensive therapy can result in functional recovery in patients with cerebral infarctions. Implications for Rehabilitation Early intervention with intensive rehabilitation therapy is important for improving the functional recovery of patients during acute-care hospitalization. Few acute hospitals provide more than 2 h of daily rehabilitation for patients with acute stroke. In a daily clinical practice setting, this clinical study demonstrates a direct relationship between early intervention with intensive rehabilitation therapy and good functional recovery of ...

Efficacy of Robotic-Assisted Gait Training in chronic stroke patients: Preliminary results of an Italian bi-centre study.
CONCLUSIONS: Both rehabilitation treatments do not change the compensatory strategies in chronic patients but the RGT offers to the patients a more intensive and controlled gait training increasing the gait endurance and decreasing spasticity in the lower limb.

Call for human contact and support: an interview study exploring patients' experiences with inpatient stroke rehabilitation and their perception of nurses' and nurse assistants' roles and functions.
CONCLUSION: The findings deepen our understanding of how patients experience inpatient rehabilitation. The patients struggled with existential thoughts and concerns about the future and therefore called for human contact and support from the nursing staff. They perceived the nursing staff as mostly polite and helpful, but were unclear about the nursing staff's function in rehabilitation which, in the patients' perspective, equals physical training. Implications for Rehabilitation Nursing staff need to pay attention to the patients' needs, existential thoughts and concerns during inpatient rehabilitation. Meaningful goals f...

Upper-limb sensory impairments after stroke: Self-reported experiences of daily life and rehabilitation.
CONCLUSION: Stroke survivors perceive that sensory impairment of the upper limb has a highly negative impact on daily life, but specific rehabilitation for the upper limb is lacking. These findings imply that the clinical management of upper limb sensory impairment after stroke requires more attention. PMID: 29068038 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Kinaesthetic ability training improves unilateral neglect and functional outcome in patients with stroke: A randomized control trial.
CONCLUSION: Kinaesthetic ability training provides clinically meaningful improvement in stroke patients with unilateral neglect. It may be useful as an adjunctive therapy for rehabilitation in these patients. PMID: 29209731 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effects of newly developed compact robot-aided upper extremity training system (Neuro-X ®) in patients with stroke: A pilot study.
CONCLUSION: The Neuro-X® training system improves functioning of the upper extremity and cognition in patients with stroke after 6 weeks of training. PMID: 29946738 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Adding electrical stimulation during standard rehabilitation after stroke to improve motor function. A systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionElectrical sensory input can contribute to routine rehabilitation to improve early post-stroke lower-extremity impairment and late motor function, with no change in spasticity. Prolonged periods of sensory stimulation such as TENS combined with activity can have beneficial effects on impairment and function after stroke.

Been there, done that, so what's next for arm and hand rehabilitation in stroke?
CONCLUSIONS: The good news is that there is evidence that we learned from the past and have invented a future that appears to be much more exciting and promising than the past. PMID: 29991146 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Neural Decoding of Robot-Assisted Gait During Rehabilitation After Stroke
Conclusions The Kalman decoder showed increased accuracies as the longitudinal training intervention progressed in the stroke participants. These results demonstrate the feasibility of studying changes in patterns of neuroelectric cortical activity during poststroke rehabilitation and represent the first step in developing a brain-machine interface for controlling powered exoskeletons.

The effect of theta-burst stimulation on unilateral spatial neglect following stroke: a systematic review.
CONCLUSION:: This systematic review found that theta-burst stimulation seems to improve post-stroke unilateral spatial neglect, but because the evidence is limited to a few small studies with varied and inconsistent protocols and use of terminology, no firm conclusion on effectiveness can be drawn.
