Deans' stroke musings: Relationship between the Arms Crossed Seated Side Tapping Test and the Gait Speed of Hemiplegic Stroke Patients

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Relationship between the Arms Crossed Seated Side Tapping Test and the Gait Speed of Hemiplegic Stroke Patients

Useless. Absolutely nothing here is going to help survivors get 100% recovered.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the gait speed and Arms Crossed Seated Side Tapping test (AC-SST) in hemiplegic stroke patients. Study participants were 22 hemiplegic patients who could walk independently or with a cane. The researchers measured their gait speed, AC-SST performance, basic characteristics (age, sex, height, weight), and clinical characteristics (duration after onset of stroke, Brunnstrom stage of lower extremity, Fugl-Meyer Assessment of lower extremity). Only the AC-SST was found to correlate significantly with gait speed; the other factors showed no correlation. The significant correlation between gait speed and AC-SST indicates that the ability to move the trunk quickly is an important aspect of the gait function of hemiplegic stroke patients.
