Background. Recovery of the upper limb (UL) after a stroke occurs well into the chronic
stage. Stroke survivors can benefit from adaptive plasticity to improve UL movement through …

Purpose. There is little guidance on using extrinsic feedback to enhance motor learning after
stroke. This narrative review synthesises research findings and identifies questions …

Purpose. To investigate the effect of different aspects and types of augmented feedback on
motor functions and motor activities of the hemiparetic arm after stroke. Method. Systematic …

Background. A common assumption is that changes in upper limb (UL) capacity, or what an
individual is capable of doing, translates to improved UL performance in daily life, or what an …

Background. Six months after a stroke, the hemiplegic arm often remains compromised.
More innovative approaches to motor rehabilitation are needed. Objective. The authors …

Background. An inability to perform tasks involving reaching is a common problem following
stroke. Evidence supports the use of robotic therapy and functional electrical stimulation …

Objective To investigate the therapeutic interventions reported in the research literature and
synthesize their effectiveness in improving upper limb (UL) function in the first 4 weeks …

Background. During upper limb motor recovery after stroke, the greatest improvements occur
typically in the first 5 weeks poststroke. It is unclear what patients learn during this early …

Background Main claims of the literature are that functional recovery of the paretic upper
limb is mainly defined within the first month post stroke and that rehabilitation services …

This review addresses what is currently known about the time course of skill reacquisition
after stroke. There is growing evidence that the natural logarithmic pattern of functional …
