Current practice of outpatient rehabilitation services in patients with mobility-impaired paralysis due to stroke or spinal cord injury: a qualitative interview study in Germany
CONCLUSION: Areas of improvement identified focused on: setting rehabilitation goals towards participation, training therapists on evidence-based treatments and shared decision-making, updating the outpatient service catalogue, and implementing coordination actions. Implementation of these recommendations should be evaluated.PMID:37732606 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2023.2259301

Telerehabilitation Following Stroke
Stroke remains a major cause of disability. Intensive rehabilitation therapy can improve outcomes, but most patients receive limited doses. Telehealth methods can overcome obstacles to delivering intensive therapy and thereby address this unmet need. A specific example is reviewed in detail, focused on a telerehabilitation system that targets upper extremity motor deficits after stroke. Strengths of this system include provision of daily therapy associated with very high patient compliance, safety and feasibility in the inpatient or home setting, comparable efficacy to dose-matched therapy provided in-clinic, and a holisti...

Integrating Cardiac Rehabilitation in Stroke Recovery
Stroke remains a top contributor to long-term disability in the United States and substantially limits a person ’s physical activity. Decreased cardiovascular capacity is a major contributing factor to activity limitations and is a significant health concern. Addressing the cardiovascular capacity of stroke survivors as part of poststroke management results in significant improvements in their endurance, fu nctional recovery, and medical outcomes such as all-cause rehospitalization and mortality. Incorporation of a structured approach similar to the cardiac rehabilitation program, including aerobic exercise and risk fact...

Spatial Neglect is Not a Visual Field Defect: A Guide for Clinicians
Visual field defect and spatial neglect may occur simultaneously or separately after a stroke. People with these conditions often experience significant disability and reduced quality of life. Understanding the differences between them will help guide screening, assessments, and treatment approaches in rehabilitation.

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.

Meeting the need for post-stroke vision care in Australia: a scoping narrative review of current practice
CONCLUSION: Further research is needed into current Australian post-stroke vision care to accurately assess whether the needs of stroke survivors are being met. Available evidence indicates that in Australia, there is a requirement for well-defined protocols for vision screening, education, management, and referral of stroke survivors.Implications for RehabilitationPost-stroke vision care in Australia is unstandardised, which may cause inequities in vision care provision to Australian stroke survivors in different regions and/or care facilities.Education and training pertaining to stroke-related vision conditions for strok...

Medication Management After Stroke
After your stroke, doctors will prescribe specific medications. It is very important that you take your medications every day. To do this, you must get your medications from the pharmacy, organize your medications, correctly read and understand the medication label, and remember to take your medications.1 This is called medication management.

Empowering Stroke Survivors: Understanding The Role of Multidisciplinary Rehabilitation
Stroke is 1 of the leading causes of disability worldwide, with someone having a stroke every 40 seconds in the United-States.1 A stroke can occur by clot that interrupts blood flow in the brain. It can also be caused by a burst of a blood vessel that causes bleeding in the brain. There are also other unknown causes of stroke which occur less frequently. A stroke causes brain cells to die as they no longer receive oxygen and nutrients from the blood. Some of the most common risk factors of stroke are high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart diseases, diabetes, smoking, physical inactivity, and obesity.

Do social determinants influence post-stroke aphasia outcomes? A scoping review
CONCLUSIONS: Research on SDOHs and aphasia outcomes is in its infancy. Given SDOHs are modifiable and operate over a lifetime, and aphasia is a chronic condition, there is a pressing need to understand the role of SDOHs on aphasia outcomes in the long term.Implications for rehabilitationResearch on the role of Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) and aphasia outcomes is in its infancy.The role of SDoHs has been mainly investigated in relation to language outcomes.Little is known about the SDoHs on activity, participation, and quality of life outcomes.Rehabilitation professionals should consider the potential influence of i...
