Constraint-induced movement therapy and massed practice. [PDF]
To the Editor: Van der Lee and coworkers 1 reported that Constraint-Induced Movement (CI) therapy, compared with bimanual neurodevelopmental treatment (NDT), results in clinically insignificant improvements in the function of the more-impaired arm of persons with chronic stroke.

Constraint‐induced movement therapy (CIMT): Pediatric applications [PDF]
AbstractThe purpose of this article is to describe theoretical and research bases for constraint‐induced movement therapy (CIMT), to discuss key features and variations in protocols currently in use with children, and to review the results of studies of efficacy.

The social organization in constraint-induced movement therapy
Ethnographic data were collected at two rehabilitation facilities conducting ongoing research to evaluate functional and neurological outcomes of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT). Our findings indicate that several patterns of behavior occur during participant/therapist interaction in therapy sessions: coaching, cheerleading, reminding ...

Critique of Home Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy Trial [PDF]
Enhancing recovery from stroke with effective rehabilitation interventions remains an elusive goal.1 Although intensive rehabilitation therapies such as constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) show promise,2 the intervention has not been deployed in routine clinical practice.

Introduction/Background: Task-oriented training is a therapeutic approach based on the system theory of motor control. Constraint-induced movement therapy improves upper extremity function in stroke by increasing the use of their affected upper limb. The

Current knowledge on selected rehabilitative methods used in post-stroke recovery [PDF]
Understanding brain plasticity after stroke is important in developing rehabilitation strategies. Active movement therapies show considerable promise but their individual application is still not fully implemented.

Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy for Upper Extremities in People With Stroke [PDF]
In people who have had a stroke, upper limb paresis affects many activities of daily life. Reducing disability is therefore a major aim of rehabilitative interventions. Despite preserving or recovering movement ability after stroke, sometimes people do not fully realise this ability in their everyday activities.
