BOOK EXCERPT:
This book is both an introductory text to the rehabilitation of stroke for student therapists and a reference text for qualified therapists. The layout of the book reflects these needs with Chapters 1-4 assuming a minimal level of understanding of the material. These chapters provide an introduction to the condition of stroke itself, the problern therapists face in assessing and treating stroke patients and therapeutic approaches in occu pational therapy. Prognosis of stroke is also discussed which is an issue taken up in later chapters concemed with expert systems. The use of microcomputers in occupational therapy is discussed throughout the book with particular reference to their direct role during therapy. Chapters 5-7 assume a higher level of understand ing from the reader although students will find the material useful as an insight into the work of the modern-day therapist. Chapter 5 addresses the work carried out in the area of biofeedback; Chapter 6 introduces the concept and uses of databases, and Chapter 7 discusses the versatility of microcomputers, especially in the provision of expert systems for the prognosis of stroke.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Abstract: Stroke is one of the leading causes of serious long-term disability in the United States. According to statistics from 1996, the American Occupational Therapy Association reported that clients following stroke are the single largest population seen by occupational therapists in their practice. Furthermore, motor impairment of the upper extremity is one of the most common of the stroke sequelae. There is a call within the profession of occupational therapy to improve the use of evidence-based practice amongst clinicians in all areas of practice including stroke rehabilitation. In order to assure that occupational therapy services being delivered are appropriate, effective, and efficient, outcomes research related to best practice interventions need to be established. However, multiple barriers have been identified which impede effective research utilization. This doctoral project sought to identify, analyze and synthesize the current evidence related to occupational therapy interventions, which address motor impairments of the upper extremity in clients following stroke The comprehensive literature review was used to establish best practice guidelines for occupational therapists working in stroke rehabilitation. The suggested program established as part of this doctoral project consisted of a comprehensive training module for occupational therapists based on adult learning theory; implementation of a standardized motor assessment to be used to guide evaluation and treatment of clients and to later assist with program evaluation; and a decision-tree to assist therapists with identifying the most appropriate intervention to be implemented with each client. These efforts will address some of the barriers identified in establishing evidence-based practice with the primary objective being to improve client outcomes and quality of life following stroke
