Results: Observation participants differed in functional ability whereas stroke survivor interviewees were all ambulant. Six themes related to sedentary behaviour after stroke were generated: (1) sedentary behaviour levels and patterns after stroke; (2) the physical and social environment in the stroke service and in the home; (3) standing and movement capability after stroke; (4) emotion and motivation after stroke; (5) caregivers’ influence on, and role in influencing stroke survivors’ sedentary behaviour; and (6) intervening to reduce sedentary behaviour after stroke. Capability, opportunity and motivation were influenced by the impact of the stroke and caregivers’ inclination to support sedentary behaviour reduction. Stroke survivors reported being more sedentary than they were pre-stroke due to impaired balance and co-ordination, increased fatigue, and reduced confidence in mobilising. Caregivers inclination to support stroke survivors to reduce sedentary behaviour depended on factors including their willingness to withdraw from the caregiver role, and their perception of whether the stroke survivor would act on their encouragement. Conclusions: Many stroke survivors indicate being open to reducing sedentary behaviour, with appropriate support from stroke service staff and caregivers. The findings from this study have contributed to an intervention development process using the Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) approach to develop strategies to reduce sedentary behaviour after stroke.]]> Wed 26 Oct 2022 11:37:18 AEDT ]]> Do powered over-ground lower limb robotic exoskeletons affect outcomes in the rehabilitation of people with acquired brain injury? https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35816 Wed 24 Nov 2021 15:51:02 AEDT ]]> Predicting abstinence from methamphetamine use after residential rehabilitation: findings from the Methamphetamine Treatment Evaluation Study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27361 Wed 23 Feb 2022 16:04:23 AEDT ]]> Hippotherapy in adults with acquired brain injury: a systematic review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32752 Wed 23 Feb 2022 15:36:02 AEDT ]]> A comparative effectiveness review: responsiveness of patient outcome measures in cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44652 Wed 19 Oct 2022 09:49:35 AEDT ]]> Intensive therapy after botulinum toxin in adults with spasticity after stroke versus botulinum toxin alone or therapy alone: a pilot, feasibility randomized trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32873 Wed 19 Jan 2022 15:17:04 AEDT ]]> Independently ambulant, community-dwelling stroke survivors have reduced cardiorespiratory fitness, mobility and knee strength compared to an age- and gendermatched cohort https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33280 -1. An additional 17 healthy control participants were recruited. Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) was measured using oxygen consumption (VO2peak), and additional measures of walking speed (m s-1), leg strength and body composition were also assessed. Differences between groups were assessed by matched pairs t-tests. Effect sizes were calculated using Cohen's d. Results: There were no significant differences in age, BMI, muscle mass or body fat between groups (p > 0.05). Peak VO₂ was lower in the stroke group for the shuttle walk test (p = 0.037) and progressive cycle test (p = 0.019), as were all CRF test performance measures (p < 0.05). Stroke survivors walked significantly (p < 0.001) slower at both self-selected and fast speeds. Effect sizes of group differences for all leg strength variables were medium to large, with peak torque lower in the stroke group for all trials. Conclusions: Despite being independently ambulant and community dwelling, the CRF, walking speed and leg strength of this group were reduced compared to non-stroke comparison participants. These patients may benefit from undertaking targeted exercise programmes.]]> Wed 19 Jan 2022 15:16:39 AEDT ]]> Interval circuit training for cardiorespiratory fitness is feasible for people after stroke https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31501 2 ) was recorded continuously using a portable metabolic system. The average VO2 during each 30-second epoch was determined. VO2 ≥10.5 mL/kg/min was categorised as ≥moderate intensity. Findings: Participants exercised at VO2 ≥10.5 mL/kg/min for the majority of the time on the workstations [functional: 369/472 epochs (78%), ergometer: 170/204 epochs (83%)]. Most (69%) participants exercised for ≥30 minutes. No serious adverse events occurred. Conclusions: Applying interval training principles to a circuit of functional and ergometer workstations enabled ambulant participants to exercise at an intensity and for a duration that can improve cardiorespiratory fitness. The training approach appears feasible, safe and a promising way to incorporate both cardiorespiratory fitness and functional training into post-stroke management.]]> Wed 19 Jan 2022 15:16:20 AEDT ]]> Depression and a lack of socialization are associated with high levels of boredom during stroke rehabilitation: An exploratory study using a new conceptual framework https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48925 Wed 19 Apr 2023 15:49:30 AEST ]]> Combined somatosensory and motor training to improve upper limb function following stroke: a systematic scoping review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35334 Wed 17 Nov 2021 16:28:12 AEDT ]]> Stroke survivors’ perceptions of the factors that influence engagement in activity outside dedicated therapy sessions in a rehabilitation unit: A qualitative study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51671 Wed 13 Sep 2023 10:07:41 AEST ]]> Recovery services and expectation of consumers and mental health professionals in community-based residential facilities of Ghana https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40469 Wed 13 Mar 2024 09:22:47 AEDT ]]> An Integrative review of recovery services to improve the lives of adults living with severe mental illness https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40238 Wed 13 Mar 2024 08:50:56 AEDT ]]> Physiotherapists' attitudes toward circuit class therapy and 7 day per week therapy is influenced by normative beliefs, past experience, and perceived control: a qualitative study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34144 Wed 13 Feb 2019 11:29:00 AEDT ]]> An Integrated Recovery-oriented Model (IRM) for mental health services: evolution and challenges https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30202 Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:45:38 AEST ]]> Wayfinding through shadowlands: making minescapes matter https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31458 Wed 11 Apr 2018 10:19:52 AEST ]]> Cardiac rehabilitation online pilot: extending reach of cardiac rehabilitation https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32229 Wed 10 Nov 2021 15:13:10 AEDT ]]> Combined somatosensory and motor training to improve upper limb recovery after stroke https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35746 Wed 08 Jul 2020 11:14:44 AEST ]]> Verbal augmented feedback in the rehabilitation of lower extremity musculoskeletal dysfunctions: a systematic review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31406 Wed 08 Jan 2020 11:28:03 AEDT ]]> Clinical benefits of joint mobilization on ankle sprains: a systematic review and meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33392 Wed 08 Jan 2020 10:26:43 AEDT ]]> Rehabilitation of existing building stock: A system dynamics model to support policy development https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40326 Wed 07 Feb 2024 17:10:35 AEDT ]]> Blue carbon ecosystem monitoring using remote sensing reveals wetland restoration pathways https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51517 90% accuracy at 0.1 m resolution. At the study site, saltmarsh colonised most suitable areas, increasing by 142% and resulting in 56 tonnes of carbon sequestered, within a 4-year period, providing insight into blue carbon regeneration trajectories. Saltmarsh growth patterns were species-specific, influenced by species’ reproductive and dispersal strategies. Our findings suggested that biotic factors and interactions were important in influencing species’ distributions and succession trajectories. This work can help improve the efficiency and effectiveness of restoration planning and monitoring at coastal wetlands and similar ecosystems worldwide, with the potential to apply this approach to other types of remote sensing imagery and to calculate other rehabilitation co-benefits.

Post-hoc analysis from a randomized trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40862 p = 0.003) and ED presentations (p = 0.021) at 3 months. Within the at-risk subgroup of mild cognitively impaired, the HOME intervention significantly reduced unplanned hospitalizations (p = 0.027), but the effect did not reach significance in ED visits. While the effect of HOME differed according to support received from family for participation in life roles (p = 0.019), the participation observed in HOME patients with no support was not significantly improved. Conclusions: Findings show that hospitalized older adults with mild cognitive impairment benefit from the HOME intervention, which involves preparation and post-discharge support in the environment, to reduce unplanned re-hospitalizations.

Tandem stance test time was positively correlated with stride length, gait speed, peak angle velocity, and maximal heel clearance during the gait cycle. Correlation between tandem stance time and number of falls was weak but significant (ρ=-0.31, P=.01), and FROP-Com score for falls risk was negative and moderate for nonpreferred foot behind (ρ=-0.58, P<.01). The 10-second tandem stance with nonpreferred foot behind was associated with falling in previous 12 months (P=.04). Walking aid use history in subgroups with the individuals who cannot maintain the tandem stance with nonpreferred foot behind for 10 seconds was associated with falling in previous 12 months (OR, 55.00; 95% CI, 2.44-1238.46; P=.01). Conclusions: The 10-second tandem stance test was associated with professionally prescribed walking aids, gait parameters with prescribed walking aids, falls, and walking aid use history, indicating the test may be useful to guide the prescription of walking aids.]]> Fri 15 Sep 2023 17:53:28 AEST ]]> Telehealth for rehabilitation and recovery after stroke: State of the evidence and future directions https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47338 Fri 13 Jan 2023 12:02:43 AEDT ]]> Look Before You Leap: Interventions Supervised via Telehealth Involving Activities in Weight-Bearing or Standing Positions for People After Stroke-A Scoping Review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49426 Fri 12 May 2023 15:16:21 AEST ]]> Occupational therapy for military personnel and military veterans experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder: A scoping review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41825 Fri 12 Aug 2022 12:52:18 AEST ]]> Changing stroke: radical rethink of recovery https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33712 Fri 07 Dec 2018 16:34:02 AEDT ]]> Adherence to home exercises and rehabilitation (ADHERE) after stroke in low-to-middle-income countries: A randomized controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49173 Fri 05 May 2023 15:37:24 AEST ]]> Impairments, and physical design and culture of a rehabilitation unit influence stroke survivor activity: qualitative analysis of rehabilitation staff perceptions https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49113 Fri 05 May 2023 11:39:23 AEST ]]> Go Home, Sit Less: The Impact of Home Versus Hospital Rehabilitation Environment on Activity Levels of Stroke Survivors https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45704 Fri 04 Nov 2022 08:49:08 AEDT ]]>
