IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 16925: Effect of Treadmill Training with Visual Biofeedback on Selected Gait Parameters in Subacute Hemiparetic Stroke Patients
Conclusions: The treadmill with visual biofeedback as conventional gait training has resulted in a significant improvement in parameters such as step length, walking speed, static balance, and a reduction in the use of locomotion aids. However, the achieved improvement in gait parameters is still not in line with the physiological norm.

'We don't have to do it together': a qualitative study of physiotherapists' and patients' perceptions about collaborative goal setting in Nigeria
CONCLUSIONS: Though rarely practiced, participants agreed that collaborative goal setting could be beneficial. Both the physiotherapists and patients require education on how to appropriately collaborate in setting goals of rehabilitation.PMID:36447440 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2152645

Examining the factors associated with functional capacity of community-dwelling older adults using the ICF framework: a cross-sectional study from the Frailty in Brazilian Older Adults Study (FIBRA)
CONCLUSION: Functional capacity of older adults is associated with some non-modifiable factors, such as age and sex. The modifiable factors must be addressed by health professionals and policymakers in the geriatric area, especially depression, obesity, physical inactivity, and social support.PMID:35659442 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2079574

Development of strategies to support home-based exercise adherence after stroke: a Delphi consensus
Conclusion We developed a framework of comprehensive strategies to assist clinicians in supporting exercise adherence among stroke survivors. It provides practical methods that can be deployed in both research and clinical practices. Future studies should explore stakeholders’ experiences and the cost-effectiveness of implementing these strategies.

What is "usual care" in the rehabilitation of upper limb sensory loss after stroke? Results from a national audit and knowledge translation study
CONCLUSION: Sensory assessment protocol use has increased over time while sensory-specific training has remained stable. Sensory rehabilitation in the context of everyday activities is a common treatment approach. Clinical trial registration number: ACTRN12615000933550IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONOnly a small proportion of upper limb assessments conducted with stroke patients focus specifically on sensation; increased use of standardised upper limb assessments for sensory loss is needed.Stroke patients assessed as having upper limb sensory loss frequently do not receive treatment for their deficits.Therapists typically u...

Mirror Therapy for Lower-Extremity Hemiparesis: A Knowledge Translation Study Using an Educational Module to Change Physiotherapists' Perceptions
Conclusions: Therapists' knowledge of and attitudes toward MT for LE stroke rehabilitation changed favourably after participating in a 1-hour educational module. The module also led some therapists to make a change in practice at 3 months.PMID:34456438 | PMC:PMC8370691 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2020-0002

Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in Stroke Rehabilitation: Benefits and Clinical Utility Perceived by Physiotherapists and Individuals with Stroke
Conclusions: Both physiotherapists and patients described the benefit of having CPET available to support them as they participated in exercise in a stroke rehabilitation setting. Physiotherapists would benefit from having educational tools to support their interpretation and application of test results, and patients would benefit from improved communication and education to support their understanding of the relevance of CPET to their rehabilitation goals. Future research should explore these findings in other stroke rehabilitation settings.PMID:34456420 | PMC:PMC8370738 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2019-0070
