Insights into the nature of female sexuality from the perspective of female stroke survivors.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study underline the importance of addressing sexuality as part of rehabilitation and provide some guidance about what might be important to address. Implications for Rehabilitation Sexuality should be addressed by clinicians as part of person-centred rehabilitation. Understanding "the being" and "the doing" of female sexuality is a pre-requisite for understanding female sexuality post-stroke. Idealised constructions of being female formulated pre-stroke may continue to be points of reference for self-assessment post-stroke, hence need to be understood when seeking to support a positive sen...

Five-year follow-up of a cluster-randomized controlled trial of a client-centred activities of daily living intervention for people with stroke.
CONCLUSION:: The client-centred ADL intervention appears to render similar long-term effects as usual ADL interventions for people with stroke, but for significant others signs of depression might be reduced.

Significant others' perspectives on person-centred information and communication technology in stroke rehabilitation - a grounded theory study.
CONCLUSION: Information and communication technology has the potential to facilitate participation in everyday life after stroke. It is important, therefore, to start using information and communication technology in the rehabilitation process after stroke, to bring meaning to everyday life and to support both the stroke survivors and their significant others. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION Integration of information and communication technology in the rehabilitation process after stroke can accommodate several of the significant others´ needs. Educating stroke survivors to use information and communication technology as...

Closeness and life satisfaction six years after stroke for patients and spouses.
CONCLUSION: For the vast majority of people who have had a stroke and their spouses, long-term satisfaction with aspects of "Closeness" decline. The results suggest a need to develop, evaluate and implement programmes that support satisfaction with the different aspects of "Closeness".

Perceived occupational balance in people with stroke.
Conclusion: These results demonstrate the importance of considering occupational balance in the rehabilitation of persons with stroke to support their engagement in a variety of meaningful activities that contribute to health. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION Rehabilitation need to support persons with stroke to monitor their entire patterns of activities and perceived balance to support wider engagement in meaningful activities and promote health. Balance between all kinds of activities in daily life besides work, needs to be considered in the later phase of rehabilitation in persons with stroke. A majority of the particip...

Incidence and potential predictors of early onset of upper-limb contractures after stroke.
Conclusions: Individuals with mild and moderate stroke developed upper-limb contractures three months after the onset of the stroke, with an incidence of 28%. The predictors were the presence of pain and loss of dexterity. These impairments should be earlier targeted during rehabilitation interventions. Implications for rehabilitation The incidence of upper limb contracture 3 months after the stroke is high after mild to moderate stroke. Wrist contractures are the most common upper limb contracture. The presence of pain and loss of dexterity significantly contribute to the development of upper limb contractures. Health pro...

The experience of occupational identity disruption post stroke: a systematic review and meta-ethnography.
Conclusions: Stroke impacts on an individual's occupational identity, compromising the continuity of a stroke survivor's sense of self. However, occupational identity is fluid; this can be used to support individuals to re-invent the occupational self. A conceptual model was developed to support the application of these results in clinical practice. Implications for rehabilitation Occupational identity disruption impacts on stroke survivors' self-value and sense of self continuity. Health care professionals' understanding of stroke survivors experience of occupational identity disruption could contribute to realign stroke ...

Association of formal and informal care with health-related quality of life and depressive symptoms: findings from the Caring for Adults Recovering from the Effects of Stroke study.
Conclusions: Shared care was the most common care configuration for stroke participants, but no significant associations were found between shared care and self-reported outcomes after adjusting for stroke participant characteristics. Further research is needed on the dose of informal and formal care and their coordination to better understand relationships with recovery. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability for adults in the USA and ongoing care is needed for survivors. Informal caregivers such as family members play an important role in recovery in addition to formal care prov...

Need for structured healthcare organization and support for return to work after stroke in Sweden: Experiences of stroke survivors.
CONCLUSION: Tailored rehabilitation content and a structured stepwise return-to-work process facilitated return to work. Insufficient structure within the healthcare system and lack of support in daily life were perceived barriers to return to work, and need to be improved. These aspects should be considered in the return-to-work process after stroke.

Impaired force control contributes to car steering dysfunction in chronic stroke.
Conclusion: Stroke impairs the steering ability of the paretic hand. Although grip strength and force control of the paretic hand are diminished after stroke, only grip force control predicts steering accuracy. Deficits in grip force control after stroke contribute to functional limitations in performing skilled tasks with the paretic hand.Implications for rehabilitationDriving is an important goal for independent mobility after stroke that requires motor capability to manipulate hand and foot controls.Two prominent stroke-related motor impairments that may impact precise car steering are reduced grip strength and grip for...

Patients self-reported versus objective clinical measures of improvement of upper limb capacity after stroke: Are they matching?
CONCLUSION: The match between observational and self-reported measures of upper limb capacity is not dependent on the timing of assessment post-stroke. Assessment of both observational and self-reported measures may help to recognize possible over- or under-estimation of improvement in upper limb capacity post-stroke.

Patterns of cognitive-motor dual-task interference post stroke: an observational inpatient study at hospital discharge.
CONCLUSIONS: Cognitive-motor dual-task interference on gait speed is highly prevalent in ambulatory stroke survivors with mild cognitive-linguistic impairments at hospital discharge. Variability in cognitive-task performance under dual-task conditions has implications for the reliability of dual-task assessment after stroke.
CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Assessment of dual-task walking is feasible as a predischarge evaluation of attention-demanding mobility function after stroke.

Systematic review of guidelines to identify recommendations for upper limb robotic rehabilitation after stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review has identified many opportunities to modernize and otherwise improve stroke patients' upper limb robotic therapy. Rehabilitation assisted by robot or electromechanical devices for stroke needs to be improved in clinical practice guidelines in particular in terms of applicability.
