Efficiency of telerehabilitation on subacute stroke ambulation: a matched case-control study.
Brain Impair
January 2025
Department of Research and Innovation, Institut Guttmann - Hospital de Neurorehabilitació, Institut Universitari de Neurorehabilitació adscrit a la UAB, Cami Can Ruti s/n, 08916, Badalona, Barcelona, Spain; and Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Bellaterra (Cerdanyola del Vallès), Spain; and Fundació Institut d'Investigació en Ciències de la Salut Germans Trias i Pujol, Badalona, Barcelona, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- Stroke rehabilitation is increasingly needed worldwide, but there's limited evidence comparing telerehabilitation to in-person care.
- A study found that patients with stroke who participated in telerehabilitation showed greater improvements in functional ambulation compared to those who received in-person rehabilitation.
- Despite similar ambulation efficiency between the groups, telerehabilitation emerged as a promising alternative for individuals with moderate stroke severity, especially for those living with a partner at home.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the differences in functional recovery among patients with acute strokes enrolled in a postacute care cerebrovascular disease program.
- It analyzes data from 328 patients, identifying three functional groups based on their recovery: high function, medium function, and low function, noting key factors such as age and gender influencing these groupings.
- Results show that rehabilitation significantly improves outcomes, with many patients transitioning to higher function groups over time, emphasizing the need for tailored rehabilitation strategies.

Department of Rehabilitation, Medical University of Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland.
Introduction And Objective: Surface electromyography (sEMG) measurements are a valid method for sublesional muscle activity following spinal cord injury (SCI). In the literature there are few reports evaluating the effect of robotic assisted gait training (RAGT) on the sEMG properties change in SCI patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of RAGT on observed change of sEMG, and in 64 incomplete SCI patients in the sub-acute stage in relation to functional scales.
