Physical therapy interventions for the correction of equinus foot deformity in post-stroke patients with triceps spasticity: A scoping review
ConclusionsThis scoping review summarized available primary literature based on PT treatments for the correction of EFD. By highlighting the remaining gaps in knowledge, it provides a reference for future studies on this pathology. Further investigations are necessary to pinpoint the best dosage and delivery methods. Future studies should investigate whether early rehabilitation programs started during the acute phase might help prevent or limit the development of secondary deformities.

Why John Fetterman Needs Closed Captioning Technology After His Stroke
Five months after the Democratic nominee in one of the nation’s most competitive Senate races suffered a stroke, there’s still a lot to learn about his recovery. In the final weeks of the Pennsylvania Senate campaign, a key Republican attack against the state’s lieutenant governor, John Fetterman, has centered on his use of closed-captioning technology, which translates audio into text on a screen in real-time. He relied on the technology during an interview conducted Friday with NBC News, his first in-person, on-camera sit-down since his stroke in May. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] “...

Changes in cerebral blood flow before, during, and after forward and backward walking in stroke patients trained using virtual reality walking videos with deliberately induced inaccuracies in walking speed estimations
Conclusion] In the backward walking condition, greater activation of the right prefrontal cortex was observed during and immediately after the VR training. Watching VR may have led to inaccurate walking-speed estimations, necessitating postural control (which may be attributed to the activation of the prefrontal cortex) during walking.PMID:36213187 | PMC:PMC9535245 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.668

Assessment of Walking Speed and Distance Post-Stroke Increases After Providing a Theory-Based Toolkit
Conclusions: Providing a comprehensive toolkit to hospitals with professional leaders likely contributed to increasing 10mWT and 6MWT administration during inpatient and outpatient stroke rehabilitation.

Gluteus Maximus Muscle Activation Characteristics During a Chair-Rise in Adults With Chronic Stroke
Conclusions: Despite apparent unilateral muscle weakness post-stroke, bilateral decreases in gluteus maximus activation magnitudes and compounding onset deficits of the paretic extremity were observed during chair-rising. Further research is needed to determine whether interventions maximizing bilateral activation magnitudes and improving temporal activation congruency during chair-rising will carry over to functional gains Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A387).

A Novel Mobilization Criteria Checklist 12 to 24 Hours After Intravenous Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke
This study describes the development and utilization of a novel mobilization criteria checklist that can guide clinical decision making to safely initiate very early mobilization for patients with acute ischemic stroke within 12 to 24 hours after intravenous (IV) thrombolysis. Methods: The evidence was examined, and risk factors for hemorrhagic transformation and considerations for initiating or terminating mobility within the first 12 to 24 hours were identified. The information was formatted into a mobilization criteria checklist for use in a case study 12 to 24 hours after tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), an I...
