Stroke sequelae often span multiple domains, including motor, cognitive, and sensory subsystems. Impairments can contribute to difficulty participating in activities of daily living (ADLs) and translate into disability - a concern for patients and occupational therapists alike. The role of ideomotor apraxia (IMA) in stroke rehabilitation is unclear. Thus, the purpose of these two studies is to investigate stroke rehabilitation outcome while considering the presence of ideomotor apraxia. Stroke causes dysfunctional movement patterns arising from an array of potential etiologies. Agreement exists that understanding the patient's functioning serves as the basis for the rehabilitation process and ...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of group speech therapy for individuals with Parkinson Disease (IWPD) in general and to compare outcomes of group treatment delivered face-to-face (FtF) versus delivery via telemedicine (TM). Twenty-seven IWPD received group treatment based on a modified version of LSVT® in either an FtF or TM format.
