Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation, 09/15/09
Alberts JL et al. – In this review the authors describe a bimanual dexterity task that replicates many daily activities and outline how kinetic analysis of this task may provide insight into diminished bimanual function of patients with stroke and how these variables may be useful in assessing level of recovery and rate of motor recovery associated with behavioral interventions intended to improve upper extremity function. It is argued that the use of objective kinetic measures to quantify hand function may facilitate the clinical adoption of behavioral interventions for stroke, such as constraint–induced movement therapy and other repetitive task practice–based interventions.
