Daily Vibrotactile Stimulation Exhibits Equal or Greater Spasticity Relief Than Botulinum Toxin in Stroke
There are over 100 million people living with chronic stroke worldwide,1 20%-45% of whom are affected by upper limb spastic hypertonia (spasticity and hypertonia).2-4 Spastic hypertonia results in muscle contractions that resist voluntary movement and can leave the limb in a contracted position. Over time, spastic hypertonia leads to contractures that can permanently immobilize joints.5 In the upper limb, spastic hypertonia can impair hand use, dressing, sleep, hygiene, and comfort.6

Daily vibrotactile stimulation from a wearable device exhibits equal or greater spasticity relief than botulinum toxin in stroke
There are over 100 million people living with chronic stroke worldwide [1], 20-45% of whom are affected by upper limb spastic hypertonia (spasticity and hypertonia) [2, 3, 4]. Spastic hypertonia results in muscle contractions that resist voluntary movement and can leave the limb in a contracted position. Over time, spastic hypertonia leads to contractures that can permanently immobilize joints [5]. In the upper limb, spastic hypertonia can impair hand use, dressing, sleep, hygiene, and comfort [6].

Feasibility and acceptability of the Resilient Living program among persons with stroke or brain tumor and their family caregivers
CONCLUSION: The study confirms prior research suggesting that interventions targeting resilience are feasible, but larger studies with more rigorous methods are needed to appreciate the influence of resilience interventions in persons with brain disorders and their caregivers. Further research is needed to identify the characteristics of those most likely to benefit from resilience interventions and the optimal timing of such interventions.PMID:36617758 | DOI:10.3233/NRE-220127
