Does Lycra sleeve alter biomechanics of shoulder in people with post-stroke hemiplegia - A mechanistic study (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Abstract Introduction
Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) is reported in up to 81% of patients with stroke. Our previous studies found that a Lycra sleeve can reduce acromion-greater tuberosity distance (used for assessment of GHS) in people with chronic...

Is a Lycra sleeve an acceptable treatment for glenohumeral subluxation in people with stroke: Patients, clinicians and family members’ perspectives (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background:
Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) is a common post-stroke complication reported to occur in up to 81% of patients. It presents considerable challenges to the rehabilitation of the upper limb; impeding recovery of shoulder function. There i...
