Early imaging correlates of subsequent motor recovery after stroke.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether functional magnetic resonance imaging activation obtained in the first few days after stroke correlates with subsequent motor recovery. METHODS Twenty-three patients with hemiparesis after first-time stroke were scanned at 2.0 +/- 0.9 days while performing a simple motor task. We defined recovery as the change in Fugl-Meyer score from time of scan to approximate...
متن کاملCardiovascular complications and acute ischemic stroke after the treatment with epinephrine in an anaphylactic patient
Anaphylaxis is a serious clinical condition that can affect all ages and many systems (skin, gastrointestinal system, respiratory and cardiovascular systems). There are a few case reports of cardiac and cerebrovascular complications due to the anaphylaxis and/or the treatment with epinephrine. A 69-year-old female patient with known coronary artery disease (CAD), coronary artery bypass graft (C...
متن کاملFunctional Exercise and Physical Fitness Post Stroke: The Importance of Exercise Maintenance for Motor Control and Physical Fitness after Stroke
It is argued that all stroke patients, indifferent of disability, have the same possibility to improve with training. The aim of the study was to follow and register functional improvements in two groups with different functional capacities at baseline for a period of 36 months. Stroke patients were recruited and divided into groups related to their functional status at baseline. During the acu...
متن کاملStroke and drivers' job fitness
Introduction: Stroke is considered a relatively common disease in developing societies. This disease is one of The most important causes for sudden non-cardiac incapacity. On the other hand, the disease can naturally occur in working age and in drivers. Therefore evaluation the fitness for work in a driver with a history of stroke can be a major challenge for the occupational health and r...
متن کاملEfficacy of Feedback-Controlled Robotics-Assisted Treadmill Exercise to Improve Cardiovascular Fitness Early After Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cardiovascular fitness is greatly reduced after stroke. Although individuals with mild to moderate impairments benefit from conventional cardiovascular exercise interventions, there is a lack of effective approaches for persons with severely impaired physical function. This randomized controlled pilot trial investigated efficacy and feasibility of feedback-controlled robo...
