Enhanced neural plasticity early after stroke suggests the potential to improve outcomes with intensive rehabilitation therapy. Most patients do not get such therapy, however, due limited access, changing therapy settings, low doses, and poor compliance.To examine feasibility, safety, efficacy of an established telerehabilitation (TR) program initiated during admission inpatient facility (IRF) completed in patient's home.Participants hemiparetic admitted IRF received daily TR targeting arm...
Upper limb actions require intersegmental coordination of the scapula, shoulders, elbows, forearms, wrists, and hand muscles. Stroke hemiparesis, presenting as an impairment intersegmentally coordinated voluntary movement, is associated with altered integrity corticospinal tract (CST) transmission from motor cortex (M1) to Motor evoked potentials (MEPs) elicited by M1 transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) "at rest" muscles, or a backup, during muscle contraction have been used identify CST...
Our study defines a novel electrode placement method called Functionally Adaptive Myosite Selection (FAMS), as tool for rapid and effective during prosthesis fitting. We demonstrate determining that is adaptable towards individual patient anatomy desired functional outcomes, agnostic to the type of classification model used, provides insight into expected classifier performance without training multiple models.
The ability to control each finger independently is an essential component of human hand dexterity. A common observation function impairment after stroke the loss this individuation ability, often referred as enslavement, i.e., unwanted coactivation non-intended fingers in individuated movements. In previous literature, has been attributed several factors, such corticospinal drive, intrusion flexor synergy due upregulations subcortical pathways, and/or biomechanical constraints. These...
