The lycra arm sleeve for treatment of glenohumeral subluxation in people with sub-acute stroke: A randomised controlled (RC) feasibility study (2024)
Journal Article

Background: A Lycra arm sleeve has the potential to reduce glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) in people with stroke (PwS). Aims were 1) to provide feasibility data to inform a future fully powered randomised controlled trial 2) to understand whether pati...

Assessment approaches for hemiplegic shoulder pain in people living with stroke - A scoping review (2024)
Journal Article

Background
Hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) is reported in up to 40% of people with stroke. Causes of HSP are often multifactorial. To inform appropriate treatment, reliable/valid assessments are critical. The aim of this scoping review was to collat... Read More about Assessment approaches for hemiplegic shoulder pain in people living with stroke - A scoping review.

Designing, implementing and testing an intervention of affective intelligent agents in nursing virtual reality teaching simulations - A qualitative study (2024)
Journal Article

Emotions play an important role in human-computer interaction, but there is limited research on affective and emotional virtual agent design in the area of teaching simulations for healthcare provision. The purpose of this work is twofold: firstly, t...

Acceptability of Lycra sleeve for the management of glenohumeral subluxation in people with stroke: nurses’ and therapists’ perceptions (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background: Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS)
is a common secondary complication reported in
people following stroke. The aim was to explore
the acceptability of the Lycra sleeve for GHS from
staff perspective. This was part of the feasibility
stud... Read More about Acceptability of Lycra sleeve for the management of glenohumeral subluxation in people with stroke: nurses’ and therapists’ perceptions.
