Effect of using an 8-figure shoulder brace on arm swing angle and gait parameters in chronic stroke patients: a pilot randomized controlled study
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that 8-FSBTT training, combined with standard physiotherapy, improved Arm swing angle, gait speed, cadence, and both side stride lengths in the chronic stroke patients.PMID:37651200 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2253626

Physical Therapy Combined with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy: Treatment Practice Considering the Effect of Reducing Upper Limb Spasticity on Gait
Phys Ther Res. 2023;26(2):44-49. doi: 10.1298/ptr.R0025. Epub 2023 May 30.ABSTRACTWe perform physical therapy combined with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in stroke patients with hemiplegia in the maintenance phase with the intent of improving the support of paralyzed leg. In gait evaluation in patients with hemiplegia, it is important to assess elements related to coordination carefully. rTMS therapy is effective in alleviating the tension of upper limbs. As rTMS helps upper-limb swing to become evident during gait, it makes trunk rotation necessary for left-right coordination appear more easily. As a...

The potential of wearable technology to support stroke survivors' motivation for home exercise - Focus group discussions with stroke survivors and physiotherapists
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke survivors' use of wearable technology to promote home exercise will depend as much on their trust in the professional and relational competence of the physiotherapist as the technical issues of an app. The potential benefits of wearable technology for cooperation between stroke survivors and physiotherapists and as a tool for rehabilitation were highlighted.PMID:37246716 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2023.2217987

Efficacy of robot-assisted and virtual reality interventions on balance, gait, and daily function in patients with stroke: A systematic review and network meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Compared to robot-assisted training and conventional therapy, robot-assisted training combined virtual reality was most likely the best intervention in balance, and virtual reality might be the most helpful in improving daily function for stroke patients. Further studies are needed to clarify the specific efficacy of robot-assisted training combined virtual reality and virtual reality on gait.PMID:37119954 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2023.04.005

A Comparison of Three Common Rehabilitation Interventions Used to Improve Cardiovascular Fitness after Stroke: An Overview of the Literature
CONCLUSION: Physiotherapy has the potential to enhance the CVF of stroke patients. However, effective interventions and long-term effects remain debatable.PMID:37082188 | PMC:PMC10113054 | DOI:10.1155/2023/4350851

Relationship between motor performance and cortical activity of older neurological disorder patients with dyskinesia using fNIRS: A systematic review
Conclusion: Most of the reviewed studies reported poor motor performance and increased cortical activation of PD, stroke and multiple sclerosis older patients. The external motor performance such as step speed were analyzed only. The design and results were not comprehensive and profound. More than 5 weeks walking training or physiotherapy can contribute to motor function promotion as well as cortices activation of PD and stroke patients. Thus, further study is needed for more statistical analysis on the relationship between motor performance and activation of the motor-related cortex. More different type and program spor...

Motor imagery brain –computer interface rehabilitation system enhances upper limb performance and improves brain activity in stroke patients: A clinical study
This study compared the efficacy of Motor Imagery brain-computer interface (MI-BCI) combined with physiotherapy and physiotherapy alone in ischemic stroke before and after rehabilitation training. We wanted to explore whether the rehabilitation effect of MI-BCI is affected by the severity of the patient’s condition and whether MI-BCI was effective for all patients. Forty hospitalized patients with ischemic stroke with motor deficits participated in this study. The patients were divided into MI and control groups. Functional assessments were performed before and after rehabilitation training. The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FM...

Effect of home-based, overground robotic-assisted gait training on vascular health in people with chronic stroke
Overground robotic-assisted gait training (O-RAGT) has been shown to improve clinical functional outcomes in people living with stroke. The purpose of this study was to identify whether a home-based O-RAGT program, in combination with usual care physiotherapy, would demonstrate improvements in vascular health in individuals with chronic stroke, and, whether any changes in vascular outcomes would be sustained 3 months after completing the program. Thirty-four participants with chronic stroke (between 3 months and 5 years post-stroke) were randomized to either a 10-week O-RAGT program in combination with usual care physiothe...
