PDF-(BOOS)-Neurological Rehabilitation: Optimizing motor performance

Janet Carr and Roberta Shepherd head up a new team of eminent authors for the second edition of this definitive text on neurological physiotherapy In the first edition the authors described a model of neurological rehabilitation for individuals with motor dysfunction based on scientific research in the areas of neuromuscular control biomechanics motor skill learning and the link between cognition and action together with developments in pathology and adaptationThe new edition continues to advance this model while identifying and incorporating the many advances that have occurred in the last decade in the understanding and treatment of adults with neurological conditions whether caused by accident or disease Among these advances is the knowledge that the brain retains a plastic potential to reorganize even in old andor lesioned brains and that neural plasticity can be influenced by taskrelated mental and physical practice in a stimulating environment There is also an increasing body of knowledge related to the musculoskeletal systems adaptability and the need to prevent length and stiffness related changes in muscle contractility together with loss of aerobic fitness and endurance There is an expanding body of clinical research that appears to support the model provided here The training guidelines outlined in Neurological Rehabilitation are based on biomechanical constructs and motor relearning research applied to enhance brain reorganization and muscle contractility and encourage functional recovery of the patient It connects science and clinical practice enabling students and practitioners to develop their knowledge and use new clinical methods based on modern scientific understandingAll chapters have been revised some with the collaboration of five specialists who are engaged in high level scientific research and clinical practice Biomechanical models are presented to provide a framework for actionspecific training and exercise to improve performance Clinical guidelines are science and evidencebased Emphasis is on new approaches to the delivery of neurological rehabilitation that increase the time spent in mental and physical activity and the intensity of practice and exercise Uptodate referencing.
