There is an abundance of research in the management of patients post-stroke but many therapists struggle with how to integrate this new knowledge into practice. In this course, therapists will learn how to integrate the latest evidence and recommendations related to locomotor training, neuroplasticity, high-intensity training, dual-task training, outcome measures, prediction of gait recovery, motor learning, and more! Participants will apply newly learned information using video cases across the continuum of care.
Objectives
- Perform and interpret common outcome measures across the ICF model to help track and document patient improvements.
- Utilize prediction models, which can aid in establishing diagnosis and prognosis across the continuum of care.
- Apply intensity principles to multiple types of interventions.
- Apply key concepts of motor learning, that are critical for improving outcomes post-stroke.
- Describe effective long-term management strategies for individuals post-stroke including secondary prevention and wellness.
*Attendees will be required to identify their level of knowledge regarding outcome measures (e.g. gait speed, Berg balance scale, Fugl Meyer Upper extremity) and interpretation of literature (e.g. MCID, p-values, and Clinical practice guidelines) prior to attending. This will allow the instructor to gear the course toward the learners’ needs.
