Observation of meaningful activities: a case study of a personalized intervention on poststroke functional state.

Background And Purpose: Stroke rehabilitation coordinated by specialist teams and oriented toward functional activities is now common. However, the potential remains for improved outcome, and new methods for improving rehabilitation are being developed. Observation of functional, meaningful activities, via DVD, has been suggested as a technique that may be effective.
