What Do Motor “Recovery” and “Compensation” Mean in Patients Following Stroke?
TLDR
This Point of View describes the problem and offers a solution in the form of definitions of compensation and recovery at the neuronal, motor performance, and functional levels within the framework of the International Classification of Functioning model.Abstract:
There is a lack of consistency among researchers and clinicians in the use of terminology that describes changes in motor ability following neurological injury Specifically, the terms and definitions of motor compensation and motor recovery have been used in different ways, which is a potential barrier to interdisciplinary communication This Point of View describes the problem and offers a solution in the form of definitions of compensation and recovery at the neuronal, motor performance, and functional levels within the framework of the International Classification of Functioning modelread more

Journal ArticleDOI
Motor recovery after stroke: a systematic review
TL;DR: Although the existing evidence is limited by poor trial designs, some treatments do show promise for improving motor recovery, particularly those that have focused on high-intensity and repetitive task-specific practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stroke Care 2: Stroke rehabilitation
TL;DR: There is evidence to support rehabilitation in well coordinated multidisciplinary stroke units or through provision of early supported provision of discharge teams and promising interventions that could be beneficial to improve aspects of gait include fitness training, high-intensity therapy, and repetitive-task training.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasticity during stroke recovery: from synapse to behaviour.
Timothy H. Murphy,Dale Corbett +1 more
TL;DR: Evidence from animal models suggests that a time-limited window of neuroplasticity opens following a stroke, during which the greatest gains in recovery occur, and how to optimally engage and modify surviving neuronal networks is studied.

TL;DR: Integration of information across disciplines should enhance opportunities for the translation of neuroplasticity and circuit retraining research into effective clinical therapies.

TL;DR: There is strong evidence for PT interventions favoring intensive high repetitive task-oriented and task-specific training in all phases poststroke, and suggestions for prioritizing PT stroke research are given.

Interrater Reliability of a Modified Ashworth Scale of Muscle Spasticity
TL;DR: The relationship between the raters' judgments was significant and the reliability was good, and it is believed these results to be positive enough to encourage further trials of the modified Ashworth scale for grading spasticity.

The post-stroke hemiplegic patient. 1. a method for evaluation of physical performance.
TL;DR: The findings in this study substantiate the validity of ontogenetic principles as applicable to the assessment of motor behaviour in hemiplegic patients, and foocus the importance of early therapeutic measures against contractures.
