Physical rehabilitation approaches for the recovery of function and mobility following stroke.
BACKGROUND Various approaches to physical rehabilitation may be used after stroke, and considerable controversy and debate surround the effectiveness of relative approaches. Some physiotherapists base their treatments on a single approach; others use a mixture of components from several different approaches. OBJECTIVES To determine whether physical rehabilitation approaches are effective in r...
متن کاملRobotic approaches for rehabilitation of hand function after stroke.
The goal of this review was to discuss the impairments in hand function after stroke and present previous work on robot-assisted approaches to movement neurorehabilitation. Robotic devices offer a unique training environment that may enhance outcomes beyond what is possible with conventional means. Robots apply forces to the hand, allowing completion of movements while preventing inappropriate ...
متن کاملFunctional recovery after rehabilitation for cerebellar stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Relatively few data exist concerning functional recovery after ischemic and hemorrhagic cerebellar stroke. We studied patients admitted to a rehabilitation hospital after cerebellar stroke to quantify recovery after rehabilitation therapy and to identify variables that predicted functional outcome. METHODS This study was a retrospective review of consecutive cases admit...
متن کاملStroke recovery and rehabilitation.
One of the most exciting areas of stroke research is our increasing understanding of the brain’s plasticity and the ability of rehabilitation to influence neurological recovery and subsequently impact clinical outcomes. Pomeroy and Tallis1 note, “The recent revolution in our understanding of the nervous system as being soft-wired, of the potential for recovery through reorganization and of the ...
متن کاملSleep and Motor Learning: Implications for Physical Rehabilitation After Stroke
Sleep is essential for healthy brain function and plasticity underlying learning and memory. In the context of physical impairment such as following a stroke, sleep may be particularly important for supporting critical recovery of motor function through similar processes of reorganization in the brain. Despite a link between stroke and poor sleep, current approaches to rehabilitative care often...
