Assessment of the 4-meter walk test test-retest reliability and concurrent validity and its correlation with the five sit-to-stand test in chronic ambulatory stroke survivors
(Gait & Posture, 2023)Background: The 4-meter walk test (4-MWT) is a widely used measure to assess gait speed in the elderly but has not been validated for stroke survivors to date. Objectives: To assess the test-retest ... -
The effectiveness of additional core stability exercises in improving dynamic sitting balance, gait and functional rehabilitation for subacute stroke patients (CORE-Trial): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021) -
Immediate effects of TECAR therapy on gastrocnemius and quadriceps muscles with spastic hypertonia in chronic stroke survivors: a randomized controlled trial
(Biomedicines, 2023)Background: The aim of this study was to assess changes in muscle properties after a single session of capacitive and resistive energetic transfer (TECAR) therapy on spastic gastrocnemius and quadriceps ... -
Influence of core-stability exercises guided by a telerehabilitation app on trunk performance, balance and gait performance in chronic stroke survivors: a preliminary randomized controlled trial
(International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022)Stroke is one of the main causes of disability. Telerehabilitation could face the growing demand and a good strategy for post-stroke rehabilitation. The aim of this study is to examine the possible ... -
Respiratory muscle strength training and neuromuscular electrical stimulation in subacute dysphagic stroke patients: a randomized controlled trial
(Clinical Rehabilitation, 2016)Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of inspiratory/expiratory muscle training (IEMT) and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to improve dysphagia in stroke. Design: Prospective, single-blind, ... -
Telerehabilitation for balance rehabilitation in the subacute stage of stroke: a pilot controlled trial
(NeuroRehabilitation, 2022)BACKGROUND:Telerehabilitation has been proposed as an effective strategy to deliver post-stroke specific exercise. OBJECTIVE:To assess the effectiveness and feasibility of core stability exercises guided ... -
The effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy to reduce lower limb spasticity in stroke patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation, 2019)Objective: To assess the effectiveness of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) to reduce lower limb spasticity in adult stroke survivors. Data Sources: A systematic review of Medline/Pubmed, CENTRAL, ...
