Group-based circuit training to improve mobility after stroke: a cross-sectional survey of German and Austrian physical therapists in outpatient settings
CONCLUSION: German and Austrian PTs do not yet use GCT in outpatient physical therapy for stroke. Almost half of PTs, however, employ task-oriented training as recommended across guidelines. A detailed, theory-driven and country-specific evaluation of barriers to GCT uptake is necessary to inform implementation.PMID:37424481 | DOI:10.3233/NRE-230010

Effectiveness of physical therapy interventions on post-stroke spasticity: An umbrella review
CONCLUSION: Findings suggest that PT should prioritize a combination of active strategies over passive interventions, but further studies are needed prioritizing analyses of the movement system in managing post-stroke spasticity in conjunction with medical therapies.PMID:36806522 | DOI:10.3233/NRE-220275

Benefits of Specialized Subacute Stroke Rehabilitation in a Skilled Nursing Facility: Comparison to Nationwide Outcomes
To characterize the benefits of specialized, multi-disciplinary, neuro-intensive rehabilitation provided to individuals with stroke in a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) evaluating change in Minimum Data Set (MDS) functional outcomes and discharge location. A descriptive comparison to national SNF data for individuals with stroke reported by the American Physical Therapy and American Occupational Therapy Association's “Therapy Outcomes in Post-Acute Care Settings” (TOPS) study is presented.

Effect of gait distance during robot training on walking independence after acute brain injury
This study aimed to determine whether the distance of gait training using a hybrid assistive limb (HAL) is related to the improvement of walking independence in patients with acute brain injury. This was an exploratory, observational study. Thirty patients having hemiplegia (functional ambulation category, FAC score ≤ 2) with acute stroke or after brain tumor surgery were included. Patients performed 4 sessions of gait training using HAL (60 min/session), 1-3 sessions/week, combined with conventional physical therapy. The gait distance achieved in the four training sessions using HAL was measured. FAC score was measured ...

Effect of Dual-Task Training on Gait and Balance in Stroke Patients: An Updated Meta-analysis
Objective The main purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of dual-task training on gait and balance improvement in stroke patients. Design The PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, CINAHL, CNKI, Wan Fang, and VIP databases were searched from inception to January 28, 2021, for randomized controlled trials investigating the effect of dual-task training on gait and balance intervention in stroke patients. Results A total of 17 studies with 575 stroke patients that compared the efficacy and safety of dual-task training with those of conventional physical therapy or single-task training ...

Effects of Different Montages of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Haemodynamic Responses and Motor Performance In Acute Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
CONCLUSION: MFV was not modulated following active or sham groups. However, dual-tDCS was more efficient in improving motor performance than other groups, especially for lower-limb performance, with after-effects lasting at least 1 month.PMID:36036644 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v54.3208
