Kumar, P., Macleod, L., Mohan, P., Wheeler, W., & Wai Tse, G. (2018, October). Does Lycra sleeve alter biomechanics of shoulder in people with post-stroke hemiplegia - A mechanistic study. Poster presented at British Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (BAPIO) conference, Bristol, England

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. Poster presented at Society for Research in Rehabilitation, 40th Anniversary, Bristol Watershed, Bristol, England

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...
