Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation for Children With Stroke
Research into neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) for children with cerebral palsy and children post-stroke is limited. However, a recent review suggests that evidence for NMES is sufficient for improvement of gait and muscle strength as well as hand function and walking speed when combined with botulinum toxin and task-specific training.1 NMES is also referred to as electrical stimulation (eStim), functional electrical stimulation (FES), or muscle stimulation.

Where words are powerless to express: Use of music in paediatric neurology
J Pediatr Rehabil Med. 2022 May 16. doi: 10.3233/PRM-200802. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMusic is an art form that strongly affects people and can elicit many different emotions at the same time, including happiness, anxiety, sadness, and even ecstasy. What is it about music that causes such a strong reaction from each of us? Music engages many senses, which in turn can produce a multiplicity of responses and help create more extensive neuronal connections, as well as influence behaviour through structural and functional changes in the brain. Music-based interventions as a therapeutic tool in rehabilitation are becoming ...

A systematic review on extracorporeal shock wave therapy and botulinum toxin for spasticity treatment: a comparison on efficacy
CONCLUSIONS: A beneficial effect on spasticity was found for both treatments: evidence showed that ESWT and BoNT-A can ameliorate spasticity considering parameters such as MAS, MTS, AROM, PROM, UE-FMA, VAS and SFS in post-stroke, multiple sclerosis, and cerebral palsy patients. Further research is required to strengthen the evidence, and more suitable study protocols are highly needed.PMID:35412036 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.22.07136-2
