Vores australske samarbejdspartnere StrokeEd udbyder flere spændende aktiviteter hér hvor efteråret er ved at være over os.
De har lavet flere små instruktionsvideoer på You Tube med forklaring til f.eks. brugen af Sliding Tilt-table som metode til træning af knæ-ekstensorer for patienter med svag muskelstyrke (dem som ikke kan udføre rejse/sætte sig eller meget få gentagelser af dette). Fremsøg StrokeEd på You tube og find inspiration til din daglige praksis.
StrokeEd har også et spændende gratis webinar 14.september 2026 kl. 10-11 (9-10 am UK Time) om Mental Practice – “The mental Practice Variants Model for Upper Limb rehabilitation after Stroke” – Webinaret foregår på engelsk.
Presenter: Dr Dan Eaves, PhD, CSci, CPsychol
Senior Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Science (Biomechanics), School of Biomedical, Nutritional & Sport
Sciences, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, ENGLAND
Learning outcomes: By the end of the presentation, attendees will be able to:
Describe the Mental Practice Variants (MPV) model. Understand how to apply evidence-based mental practice with more confidence to enhance upper limb recovery post-stroke
Description. Dan Eaves presented a guest lecture in 2024 about delivery of mental practice. StrokeEd have invited Dan back to share his recent applied research on the topic.
Despite strong evidence and consistent recommendations across many international guidelines, mental practice remains underused in upper limb stroke rehabilitation. One reason is that the guidance on how to implement mental practice in clinical settings is scant, creating a global gap in resources for stroke rehabilitation teams. The limited descriptions of how to implement mental practice causes confusion among clinicians about what mental practice is and how it benefits patients.
To realise the full potential of mental practice in upper limb stroke rehabilitation, targeted education, standardised protocols, and practical resources must address current implementation barriers so that this proven, low-cost intervention can become routine clinical practice.
