Background and Purpose. Observation of action with intention-to-imitate (OTI) might enhance motor recovery. This early phase trial investigated whether OTI followed by physical practice (OTI + PP) enhanced the benefits conventional therapy (CPT) on upper limb recovery after stroke. Methods. Participants were 3 to 31 days poststroke. They had substantial paresis ability imitate their ipsilesional arm. After baseline measures, participants randomized either PP in addition CPT or only. Outcome...

Background: Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability worldwide. Timely and adequate rehabilitation crucial for post-stroke recovery, but access limited due to an overburdened healthcare system, medical personnel shortages, insurance barriers. Rehabilitation especially stroke survivors in rural low-income regions. Innovative solutions like telerehabilitation are needed expand access. This study examines current practices, costs, global models, as well barriers utilization. Methods:...

Introduction Feedback is essential for the development and enhancement of processes. Everyone who participates in research should have opportunity to provide feedback on their experiences. This may be more pertinent those with aphasia, can face barriers participation across a language-loaded process. Their as means shaping inclusive practices.Within United Kingdom (UK), National Institute Health Research (NIHR) Clinical Networks (CRNs) conduct an annual "Participant Experience Survey"...

Background Symptoms of transient ischemic attack are believed to fully resolve within 24 h onset. Emerging evidence suggests that there may be prolonged functional and psychological impact, although studies have not been able robustly identify whether these the effect or changes usually associated with ageing. We describe trajectories disability risk anxiety depression among patients seen at clinics over 12 months, compared healthy controls. Methods Thirty across England participated. A...

Functional Strength Training (FST) could enhance recovery late after stroke. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility a subsequent fully powered, randomized controlled trial. designed as randomized, observer-blind Both interventions were provided for up one hour day, four days week, six weeks. Evaluation points before randomization (baseline), weeks intervention (outcome), and thereafter (follow-up). took place in participants' own homes. Participants (n = 52) mean 24.4 months...

Abstract The importance of patients’ active involvement in neuro‐rehabilitation after acquired brain injury has been consistently emphasised recent years. However, most approaches fail to show how ‘active participation’ is practically enacted, focusing on individualised explanations patient choice and behaviours, or notions inherent traits. Using actor‐network theory ( ANT ) as a sensitising concept, we investigated practices, asking participation shaped through biological socio‐material...

Rationale Functional Strength Training may enhance motor function of people who are more than six months post stroke. Aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy enhancing upper and lower limb with FST explore participants' views (expectations experiences) FST, determine what cost-effectiveness data collect in a subsequent Phase III trial. Design Randomized, observer-blind trial embedded qualitative investigation ( n = 6, purposive sampling). Study Participants 58), five years after stroke...
