Aerobic Exercise Improves Cognition and Motor Function Poststroke
Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair, 10/29/09
Quaney BM et al. – Cognitive deficits impede stroke recovery. Aerobic exercise (AEX) improves cognitive executive function (EF) processes in healthy individuals, although the learning benefits after stroke are unknown. AEX improved mobility and selected cognitive domains related to motor learning, which enhances sensorimotor control after stroke.

| Chronic stroke survivors performed AEX 3x/wk for 8 wks. Results from our novel study demonstrate that AEX significantly improves the cognitive and motor learning abilities which underlie functional recovery after stroke. Ongoing studies will determine the relationship between neural factors, cognition, physical fitness and stroke recovery. |
