Systematic review of high-level mobility training in people with a neurological impairment.

Aim: The objective of this paper was to systematically review the efficacy of interventions targeting high-level mobility skills in people with a neurological impairment.

Methods: A comprehensive electronic database search was conducted. Study designs were graded using the American Academy of Cerebral Palsy and Developmental Medicine (AACPDM) system and methodological quality was described using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale.

Frequency and characteristics of goal attainment following BoNT-A injection for management of spasticity.

Purpose: To determine which Goal Attainment Scale (GAS) goals are commonly achieved in patients with upper limb and/or lower limb spasticity following Botulinum Neurotoxin Type A (BoNT-A) injection.

Method: Adults who attended a Spasticity Management Clinic for upper and/or lower limb BoNT-A injection were included in this prospective cohort study. Goals were set by participants and/or carers in conjunction with the therapist using the GAS, prior to injection and reviewed at one month following the injection.
