Acceptability of Lycra arm sleeve in people with sub-acute stroke: Patients', carers' and clinicians' perspectives (2022)
Journal Article

Background: Previous studies found that the Lycra sleeve has potential to reduce glenohumeral subluxation in people with stroke. The primary aim of this study was to explore the acceptability of the Lycra sleeve from patients’, carers’ and staff perc...

Effects of electrical stimulation combined with rotator cuff rehabilitation for the management of hemiplegic shoulder pain and glenohumeral subluxation in people with chronic stroke (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background: Hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) and Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) are common post-stroke complications reported in up to 65% and 81% of patients. Poor motor function and prevalence of rotator cuff (RC) muscle weakness increases the risk o...

Within-day intrarater and interrater reliability of portable ultrasound measurements of supraspinatus muscle thickness in healthy people: A preliminary study (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background: Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) and hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) are common post-stroke complications reported in up to 81% and 65% of patients respectively. Rotator cuff muscle weakness, especially supraspinatus muscle inactivity is a p...

A practical workshop on hemiplegic shoulder pain, physical assessment and treatment strategies (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) is one of the four most common medical complications after a stroke alongside depression, falls urinary tract infections. HSP has a reported incidence of between 30% (acute) and 65% (chronic) in people with stroke. The...

Empowering future care workforces: Scoping capabilities to leverage assistive robotics through co-design (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This project aims to understand what kind of capabilities care professionals need to use physically assistive robotics on their own terms, and in ways that are safe, trustworthy, and meet the legal and ethical standards of their profession. Empowerin... Read More about Empowering future care workforces: Scoping capabilities to leverage assistive robotics through co-design.

A machine learning model for predicting sit-to-stand trajectories of people with and without stroke: towards adaptive robotic assistance (2022)
Journal Article

Sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transfers are fundamental daily motions that enable all other types of ambulation and gait. However, the ability to perform these motions can be severely impaired by different factors, such as the occurrence of a stroke,...

Remote provision of 'next steps' exercise class in people with stroke: An online survey of participants' experience (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background: Physiotherapy rehabilitation is a fundamental component of multidisciplinary management following stroke, for biopsychosocial exercise benefits and secondary prevention. Bristol After Stroke and the University of the West of England’s Bri...
