How effective and safe are current interventions for sexual dysfunction following stroke? A Cochrane Review summary with commentary
CONCLUSIONS: The effectiveness of current rehabilitation interventions for SD following stroke remains uncertain due to the low quality of evidence and limited sample size. Further studies with improved methodology should investigate rehabilitation interventions for SD in stroke survivors to improve their quality of life.PMID:35342059 | DOI:10.3233/NRE-228017

Symmetry Is Associated With Interlimb Coordination During Walking and Pedaling After Stroke
We examined these associations: (1) propulsive symmetry with interlimb coordination during walking, (2) work symmetry with interlimb coordination during pedaling, and (3) work symmetry and interlimb coordination with clinical impairment. Methods: Nineteen individuals with chronic stroke and 15 controls performed bilateral, lower limb pedaling with a conventional device and a device with a bisected crank and upstroke assistance. Individuals with stroke walked on a split-belt treadmill. Measures of symmetry (%Propulsionwalk, %Workped) and interlimb phase coordination index (PCIwalk, PCIped) were computed. Clinical eva...

Treatment of Vestibular Disorders (Inner Ear Balance Problems): How Does Your Physical Therapist Treat Dizziness Related to Inner Ear Balance Problems?
Dizziness is very common, but it is never normal. Dizziness can make performing daily activities, work, and walking difficult. Inner ear balance problems can make people dizzy when they turn their head, which can cause problems during walking and make people more likely to fall. Most of the time dizziness is not from a life-threatening disease. Often, dizziness is related to a problem of the vestibular (or inner ear balance) system. Vestibular disorders can be caused by infections in the ear, problems with the immune system, medications that harm the inner ear, and rarely from diabetes or stroke because of a lack of blood ...

Use of an EMG-Controlled Game as a Therapeutic Tool to Retrain Hand Muscle Activation Patterns Following Stroke: A Pilot Study
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke survivors could successfully use the EMG-controlled games to train control of muscle activation patterns. While the nonparetic limb EMG was used in this study to create target EMG patterns, the system supports various means for creating target patterns per user desires. Future studies will employ training with the EMG-controlled games in conjunction with functional task practice for a longer intervention duration to improve overall hand function.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A379).PMID:3...

Effective physical therapy activities to improve the supine-to-seated transfer time in stroke patients: an observational pilot study
Conclusion] The results suggested that other activities exerted a similar effect as moderate therapeutic activities in the Brunnstrom recovery stage 6 group and were more effective than high therapeutic activities in reducing the time required to sit up from the supine position.PMID:35291476 | PMC:PMC8918106 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.187

Factors that Influence the Clinical Implementation of Aerobic Exercise in Stroke Rehabilitation: a Theory-Informed Qualitative Study
CONCLUSION: Strategies to support implementation of AEx in stroke rehabilitation should incorporate knowledge and skills; the provision of clinical decision-making tools; access to expert consultation; the roles and social influence of the interprofessional team and formal and informal leaders; and supportive processes adapted to the local context.IMPACT: Results from this study will inform the development of a clinical implementation toolkit to support clinical uptake of AEx in the stroke rehabilitation setting.PMID:35194641 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzac014
