New advances in Rehabilitation of Stroke
Worldwide, stroke remains one of the leading causes of death and long-term disability, with an estimated prevalence of 2.5%. The prevalence of people living with the effects of stroke has increased because of the growing aging population. As the number of stroke survivors increases, so does the demand for function rehabilitation of stroke. The goal of conventional rehabilitation is to improve residual function and restore independence, but its impact is still limited. Novel therapeutic approaches remain urgent and the potential mechanisms underlying these approaches require further exploration. Therefore, in this Research Topic, our goals include: (1) to explore novel rehabilitation approaches of stroke in both acute and chronic stages; (2) to explore the potential mechanisms underlying novel rehabilitation approaches of stroke; (3) to explore different situations and challenges across different countries regarding rehabilitation of stroke; (4) to identify ways to further improve the quality of rehabilitation for stroke; (5) to identify and remove barriers that limit patients’ access to appropriate rehabilitation services.
