  1. 6. Shoulder pain after stroke: prevalence, contributing factors and consequences in daily life

    Författare :Ingrid Lindgren; Rehabiliteringsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; sensory thresholds; range of motion; arm motor function; outcome; Stroke; shoulder pain; life satisfaction; participation; activities of daily living;

    Sammanfattning : Post stroke shoulder pain, PSSP, is a common type of pain after stroke, but still further knowledge of this condition is needed. An increased knowledge of prevalence, contributing factors and impact on the individual’s life could enhance the possibility to find more effective treatments and therefore more studies are needed.

  2. 7. Virtual reality based kinematics for assessment of post-stroke upper limb function

    Författare :Netha Hussain; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; stroke; motion analysis; upper extremity; arm function; kinematics; virtual reality; outcome assessment; rehabilitation; recovery of function; task performance and analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The main scope of this thesis was to develop a method for assessing the upper limb sensorimotor function following stroke using virtual reality-based technique. The studies reported in this thesis included 67 individuals extracted from the SALGOT (Stroke Arm Longitudinal Study at the University of Gothenburg) cohort and 43 healthy controls. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Clinical Findings and Outcome after Stroke. Including a Translational Stem Cell Therapy Perspective

    Författare :Hossein Delavaran; Lund Neurologi; []
    Nyckelord :stroke; recovery; outcome; cognitive function; Upper extremity motor impairment; Stem cell therapy;

    Sammanfattning : Background and Purpose: Stroke is one of the dominant causes of death and adult disability in the world. There is a need for novel therapeutic approaches to improve functional recovery and outcome after stroke, and experimental studies have shown that stem cell-based therapies (SCT) hold much potential in this regard.

  4. 9. Aphasia in acute stroke

    Författare :Ann Charlotte Laska; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Acute stroke; aphasia; atrial fibrillation; depression; drug treatment; prognosis; speech and language therapy;

    Sammanfattning : Aphasia is a language impairment due to a brain lesion, usually in the left hemisphere, and is a common symptom in acute stroke. The aims of this thesis were to evaluate aphasia in acute stroke patients, to assess spontaneous language recovery, to evaluate the test instruments, to evaluate the efficacy of drug treatment, and speech and language therapy for recovery of aphasia, and to assess the possibility to reliable identify depression in aphasic patients.

  5. 10. Postural balance, anxiety and motor function after stroke, at a very early supported discharge with continued rehabilitation

    Författare :Lena Rafsten; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stroke; Rehabilitation; Postural balance; Physical therapy; Upper extremity; Anxiety;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate postural balance, anxiety and motor function the first year after stroke and whether postural balance, anxiety and motor function was different at the intervention of Very Early Supported Discharge (VESD) com-pared to routine discharge during the first year post stroke.
