A foot drop compensation device based on surface multi-field functional electrical stimulation—Usability study in a clinical environment [PDF]

, 2019
Functional electrical stimulation applies electrical pulses to the peripheral nerves to artificially achieve a sensory/motor function. When applied for the compensation of foot drop it provides both assistive and therapeutic effects.

Robot-aided neurorehabilitation [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Rehabilitation Engineering, 1998
Our goal is to apply robotics and automation technology to assist, enhance, quantify, and document neurorehabilitation. This paper reviews a clinical trial involving 20 stroke patients with a prototype robot-aided rehabilitation facility developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, (MIT) and tested at Burke Rehabilitation Hospital,

Effects of a single mental chronometry training session in subacute stroke patients – a randomized controlled trial

BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2020
Background Motor imagery training might be helpful in stroke rehabilitation. This study explored if a single session of motor imagery (MI) training induces performance changes in mental chronometry (MC), motor execution, or changes of motor excitability.

Action Observation for Neurorehabilitation in Apraxia [PDF]

, 2019
Neurorehabilitation and brain stimulation studies of post-stroke patients suggest that action-observation effects can lead to rapid improvements in the recovery of motor functions and long-term motor cortical reorganization.

Ictal–interictal continuum and status epilepticus: Two sides of the same coin? A prospective magnetic resonance imaging study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Status epilepticus (SE) is the most severe expression of seizures, encompassing both SE with prominent motor symptoms and nonconvulsive SE (NCSE). Ictal–interictal continuum (IIC), an electroencephalographic phenomenon, is characterized by periodic discharges (PD), spike‐and‐waves or sharp‐and‐waves (SW), or lateralized rhythmic ...

Neurorehabilitation with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation for Post-stroke Motor Recovery: A Three-arm Randomized Controlled Trial

Neurologia Medico-Chirurgica
We conducted a three-arm randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of upper-extremity motor recovery among post-stroke patients. Subacute post-stroke patients (n = 69) were randomly assigned into 3 groups: rehabilitation alone, rehabilitation ...

Short-Term Memory Impairment and Left Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex Dysfunction in the Orthostatic Position: A Single Case Study of Sinking Skin Flap Syndrome

Case Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2015
We describe the case of a patient who underwent craniectomy for hemorrhage of the left parietal lobe. Three weeks later, orthostatic memory impairment was detected as initial symptom of sinking skin flap syndrome (SSFS).

Using an upper extremity exoskeleton for semi-autonomous exercise during inpatient neurological rehabilitation- a pilot study

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2018
Background Motor deficits are the most common symptoms after stroke. There is some evidence that intensity and amount of exercises influence the degree of improvement of functions within the first 6 months after the injury.
