Interaction between recovery of motor and language abilities after stroke

We need a protocol written up on this then. WILL NEVER OCCUR. No one in stroke actually thinks about what is best for the survivors. We will never get off the failed status quo in stroke until survivors are in charge.

Interaction between recovery of motor and language abilities after stroke

A retrospective cohort study was performed to examine the nature of the interaction between motor and language recovery in patients with motor impairment and aphasia following left hemispheric stroke and to evaluate prognostic factors of best recovery, that is, the significant recovery of both functions simultaneously. Researchers included a total of 435 individuals with left hemispheric stroke in the post-acute phase with motor impairment and aphasia. This research gives data about a possible interaction between motor and language recovery after stroke. There was no correlation between improvement in one function and deterioration in the other. The outcomes actually imply a synergic impact between the amelioration of the 2 functions, with an overall increased efficiency when the 2 recovery pathways are combined.
