Acceleration Metrics Are Responsive to Change in Upper Extremity Function of Stroke Survivors / M.A. Urbin in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2015/5 (2015)  

[article]  inArchives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation > 2015/5 (2015) . - p. 854-861 Titre : Acceleration Metrics Are Responsive to Change in Upper Extremity Function of Stroke Survivors Type de document : Article Auteurs : M.A. Urbin ; Kimberly J.

Lang Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p. 854-861 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci Accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC) ; Neurologie ; Rééducation et réadaptation Mots-clés : Accelerometry  Accélérométrie  Neurology  Paresis  Parésie  Stroke Résumé : Objectives To (1) determine whether acceleration metrics derived from monitoring outside of treatment are responsive to change in upper extremity (UE) function; and secondarily to (2) compare metric values during task-specific training and while in the free-living environment, and (3) establish metric associations with an in-clinic measure of movement capabilities. Design Before-after observational study. Setting Inpatient hospital (primary purpose); outpatient hospital (secondary purpose). Participants Individuals (n=8) with UE hemiparesis Intervention The inpatient sample was evaluated for UE movement capabilities and monitored with wrist-worn accelerometers for 22 hours outside of treatment before and after multiple sessions of task-specific training. The outpatient sample was evaluated for UE movement capabilities and monitored during a single session of task-specific training and the subsequent 22 hours outside clinical settings. Main Outcome Measures Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) and acceleration metrics quantified from accelerometer recordings. Results Five metrics improved in the inpatient sample, along with UE function as measured on the ARAT: use ratio, magnitude ratio, variation ratio, median paretic UE acceleration magnitude, and paretic UE acceleration variability. Metric values were greater during task-specific training than in the free-living environment, and each metric was strongly associated with ARAT score. Conclusions Multiple metrics that characterize different aspects of UE movement are responsive to change in function. Metric values are different during training than in the free-living environment, providing further evidence that what the paretic UE does in the clinic may not generalize to what it does in everyday life.

Individual Differences in Working Memory Capacity Predicts Responsiveness to Memory Rehabilitation After Traumatic Brain Injury / Joshua Sandry in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2016/6 (2016)  

[article]  inArchives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation > 2016/6 (2016) . - pp. 1026–1029 Titre : Individual Differences in Working Memory Capacity Predicts Responsiveness to Memory Rehabilitation After Traumatic Brain Injury Type de document : Article Auteurs : Joshua Sandry ; Kathy S. Chiou ; John DeLuca Article en page(s) : pp. 1026–1029 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci Cognition ; Neurologie ; Rééducation et réadaptation ; Troubles de la mémoire Mots-clés : Brain injuries  Lésions encéphaliques  Memory Disorders  Neurology Résumé : Objective To explore how individual differences affect rehabilitation outcomes by specifically investigating whether working memory capacity (WMC) can be used as a cognitive marker to identify who will and will not improve from memory rehabilitation. Design Post hoc analysis of a randomized controlled clinical trial designed to treat learning and memory impairment after traumatic brain injury (TBI): 2 * 2 between-subjects quasiexperimental design (2 [group: treatment vs control] * 2 [WMC: high vs low]). Setting Nonprofit medical rehabilitation research center. Participants Participants (N=65) with moderate to severe TBI with pre- and posttreatment data. Interventions The treatment group completed 10 cognitive rehabilitation sessions in which subjects were taught a memory strategy focusing on learning to use context and imagery to remember information. The placebo control group engaged in active therapy sessions that did not involve learning the memory strategy. Main Outcome Measure Long-term memory percent retention change scores for an unorganized list of words from the California Verbal Learning Test-II. Results Group and WMC interacted (P=.008, ηp2=.12). High WMC participants showed a benefit from treatment compared with low WMC participants. Individual differences in WMC accounted for 45% of the variance in whether participants with TBI in the treatment group benefited from applying the compensatory treatment strategy to learn unorganized information. Conclusions Individuals with higher WMC showed a significantly greater rehabilitation benefit when applying the compensatory strategy to learn unorganized information. WMC is a useful cognitive marker for identifying participants with TBI who respond to memory rehabilitation with the modified Story Memory Technique.
