The German DRG system defines specialized treatments through a set of minimal requirements, the documentation of which and its assessment by external specialists of the medical service of the statutory health insurance causing frictions between rehabilitation hospitals and the medical service. It is especially problematic to make a clear distinction between nursing care and treatment. To reduce frictions and interface problems, a catalogue of acts of therapy performed by nurses was agreed for neurological early rehabilitation in Baden-Württemberg. This Elzach concept and catalogue describe therapeutic nursing in neurological rehabilitation and increase transparency and accountability both for providers and cost carriers.

Polyphenylalanine-Baicalein Nanomicelles Reduce Nerve Cell Apoptosis and Inflammation to Enhance Neuroprotection and Poststroke Rehabilitation.

Cerebral ischemic stroke, neuronal death, and inflammation bring difficulties in neuroprotection and rehabilitation. In this study, we developed and designed the ability of natural lactoferrin-polyethylene glycol-polyphenylalanine-baicalein nanomicelles (LF-PEG-PPhe-Bai) to target and reduce these pathological processes, such as neurological damage and cognitive impairment in the stages of poststroke. Nanomicelles made from biocompatible materials have improved bioavailability and targeted distribution to afflicted brain areas.

Introduction: Post-stroke movement disorders are common, especially upper limb dysfunction, which seriously affects the physical and mental health of stroke patients. With the continuous development of intelligent technology, robot-assisted therapy has become a research hotspot in the upper limb rehabilitation of stroke patients in recent years. Many scholars have also integrated robot-assisted therapy with other interventions to improve rehabilitation outcomes.

Patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) may develop depression, which can affect their rehabilitation. However, the underlying mechanism of depression in SCI patients remains unclear. Previous studies have revealed increased p38 MAPK phosphorylation in the rat hippocampus after SCI, accompanied by depression-like behaviors.

Tetanus is a rare but life-threatening neurological disorder caused by neurotoxins produced by . Although mortality rates have significantly decreased with modern intensive care, severe cases remain challenging due to prolonged Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stays, complications, and rehabilitation barriers. We report the case of an 81-year-old male with a history of hypertension and femoral neck fracture who developed severe tetanus following a contaminated forehead laceration.
