Self-perceived postural balance correlates with postural balance and anxiety during the first year after stroke: a part of the randomized controlled GOTVED study
TL;DR: Patients with mild stroke can accurately assess their confidence in performing daily activities without falling and VESD does not substantially affect the correlation between self-confidence in postural Balance and observer assessed postural balance and is safe to use as an alternative to standard discharge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sitting up and transferring to a chair: two functional tests for patients with stroke.
TL;DR: Sitting up on a examination table and transferring from an examination table to a chair seem to be reliable timed clinical tests of mobility in stroke research.

Recovery of arm function during acute to chronic stage of stroke quantified by kinematics.
