Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Andreia S P Sousa"
Andreia S P Sousa's research focuses on the intersection of physical therapy and digital health, particularly leveraging technology such as machine learning applications and telemonitoring to improve rehabilitation outcomes in various populations, including those recovering from shoulder injuries and stroke.
Recent studies by Sousa have explored the effectiveness of scapular therapeutic exercises for shoulder pain relief, characterized physical activity levels and cardiovascular risks within educational communities, and investigated biomechanical variables related to gait in post-stroke individuals.
The findings suggest that innovative approaches in physical therapy, including home-based solutions and machine learning tools, can enhance rehabilitation efficacy, while highlighting the importance of understanding kinematics and neuromuscular responses in both post-stroke patients and individuals with chronic conditions.
