Stroke Rehabilitation: Guidelines for Exercise and Training to Optimize Motor Skill: Module 2 (Electronic Download) SKU: 711E By Janet Carr EdD, FACP & Roberta B Shepherd EdD, FACP This course is offered in cooperation with Elsevier Science and utilizes the textbook "Stroke Rehabilitation: Guidelines for Exercise & Training to Optimize Motor Skill "c2003. The last decade has seen rapid progress in the treatment and rehabilitation of stroke patients. This long-awaited guide covers essential task and context specific exercises and training regimes for optimal functional recovery. Based on scientific rationale and the latest clinical research, this book emphasizes the training of effective functional motor performance using methods that both provide a stimulus to the acquisition of skill and increase strength, endurance and fitness. This course is essential to those dealing with stroke patients in all rehabilitation settings! Module 1 covers the rehabilitation environment, outcome measurement and training guidelines for balance and ambulation. Module 2 covers the rehabilitation environment, outcome measurement and training guidelines for sit to stand training and upper extremity mobility. Module 3 covers the rehabilitation environment, outcome measurement, impairments and adaptations of stroke patients, strength training principles and physical conditioning Order this product and it will be available to you immediately after purchase for electronic download in the “My Downloads” section of your account after you have logged in.
