Would you like to know about AI stroke rehab? Of course you would! Here is a meta-analysis just published in 'Brain Disorders'
Volume 18, June 2025.
It showed that:
• AI-assisted stroke rehabilitation shows promising outcomes in terms of functional and motoric outcomes.
• Combination of VR and rehabilitation robots give the best result.
• AI-assisted stroke rehabilitation is more feasible, personalized, cost-effective than the conventional methods.
• AI-assisted stroke rehabilitation encourages home-based care and improves treatment adherence.
This is looking like the future', isn't it? If you'd like to know more about the meta-analysis, here's a synopsis:
Stroke is the primary contributor to disability worldwide, causing a high economic burden due to its morbidity. Due to the application of artificial intelligence (AI), stroke rehabilitation has been revolutionized, resulting in significant improvement. Implementing AI also enables home-based care, thus helping stroke patients who generally have ambulatory difficulties.
This research was a systematic review from Pubmed, ScienceDirect, and ProQuest, including randomized controlled trials (RCT) published from 2009 to 2024. Meta-analysis included seven studies discussing the functional and motoric outcomes of AI-assisted stroke rehabilitation.
Six studies included post-stroke patients within 3 to 6 months after the stroke occurred. AI models used were varied, ranging from end-effector or exoskeleton robots to a combination of both and virtual reality (VR). Overall, the included studies had a low risk of bias. Standard mean differences (SMDs) of the Barthel Index and Motricity Index were 0.16 and 0.60. No significant difference between AI-assisted stroke rehabilitation and conventional stroke rehabilitation for both outcomes. Non-inferiority trials showed that the AI-assisted method was not inferior to the conventional method of stroke rehabilitation.
Considering its feasibility, personalization, and flexible rehabilitation program, AI-assisted was non-inferior to the conventional method. A comprehensive guideline is needed to facilitate its usage in clinical practice.

I only wish I could afford it ☹️
Seated marching exercise: This exercise works extremely well for starting to build up co-ordination and timing in your lower limbs. Don’t think that this is a restful exercise however, because it must be done with a high degree of control. A slow skilful movement may well require more control than a faster movement, so your goal should be to match appropriate velocity to the marching and your current ability. I have found that the most important aspect with this exercise in order to gain most control is to have the stroke survivor self-select a speed, then ask him or her to speed the rhythmic marching up and then slow it down a number.

Where there is movement, there can be improvement. If you are consistently doing, then will you notice improvements, and have things of substance to write down in your training diary – the diary of success! So, the message should be clear. Never give up trying to do things with your bad hand, however convinced you are that you cannot do it.
Use your positive mindset here to dream up just one time per day when you are intentionally going to expose your limitations. Like pulling out cutlery from a drawer with your affected hand, or at least pushing them into separate little piles.

The series of three trunk twists – midline, lowline, and highline - is not designed to encourage compensatory reaching movements from the trunk, shoulder or elbow. Rather, it is an action control activity designed to remind you where you are in space.
The exercise has the potential to activate and strengthen your ‘stabiliser muscles’. Everyday activities, like picking up a bag of shopping or walking up steps, require the body to balance and steady itself, which in turn requires strong stabilisation abilities.

Could a mini-stroke leave lasting fatigue? A new study finds that people who have this type of stroke may also have prolonged fatigue lasting up to one year.
Dr Modrau at the Aalborg University Hospital and his team's study (published in Neurology®) shows that TIA, also known as a mini-stroke (typically defined as a temporary blockage of blood flow to the brain that causes symptoms that go away within a day), does not prove that mini-strokes cause lasting fatigue; it only shows an association.
People with a transient ischemic attack can have symptoms such as face drooping, arm weakness or slurred speech and these resolve within a day. However, a significant number report continued challenges including reduced quality of life, thinking problems, depression, anxiety and fatigue.
The study, involving 354 people with an average age of 70 who had a mini-stroke, were followed for a year. Researchers looked at how many participants experienced fatigue as defined as a score of 12 or higher. Of the participants, 61% experienced fatigue two weeks after the mini-stroke and 54% experienced fatigue at each of the three other testing time periods at three, six and 12.
It was found that for some people, fatigue was a common symptom that lasted up to one year after the transient ischemic attack.
ARNI Rehab says: for future studies, people diagnosed with a transient ischemic attack should be followed in the weeks and months that follow to be assessed for lingering fatigue. This could help researchers better understand who might struggle with fatigue long-term and require further care.

This article says that as well as slowly improving your memory, exercise can have a more immediate impact on memory formation.
The part of the brain that responds strongly to aerobic exercise is the hippocampus. Experiments show that this brain structure grows as people get fitter. Since the hippocampus is at the core of the brain’s learning and memory systems, this finding partly explains the memory-boosting effects of improved cardiovascular fitness.
So get exercising!

How physical exercise makes your brain work better
www.theguardian.com
Research shows different activities have quite specific mental effects – here’s how moving your body could sharpen your ideas
Tips for progression with walking
Walk round your house, walk outside if you can; depending on your environment, try building up distances, or count to 10 steps, turn around and go back. It is important as a stroke survivor that you don’t use your lack of mobility as an excuse for immobility. Don’t stop at just walking in a straight line either. Walk around an imaginary circle on the floor. Do lots of these. Stop, turn, and walk around the other way. Then repeat without losing your balance. Even experiment with one or two backwards steps, but only one or two!

One of the most important things to do after stroke — and never stop doing until you’ve reached your fullest recovery — is rehab exercise. Rehab exercise helps rewire the brain and improve mobility long-term. When survivors fail to do rehab exercises, their mobility may deteriorate and they can see a regression in function. To avoid backsliding, keep up with rehab consistently.

Be task focussed! Do a stretch then do something challenging and functional with the stretch. For example, stretch then try to pick up a hairbrush and put it into a cupboard, drawer or on a shelf.
