Review about EVER Webinar 'Treatment strategies for motor impaired stroke patients'

Motor impairments after stroke affects about 80% of all stroke patients and the development of effective therapies is therefore a very important goal in acute and subacute rehabilitation. Recently, several national and international guidelines have started to include pharmacological agents as well, as there is evidence that the combination of physiotherapy with evidence-based agents such as Cerebrolysin^® is beneficial for the longterm outcome.

• In this webinar, the moderator Dr. Maciej Niewada from Warsaw, Poland gave a brief update on stroke guidelines.
• Prof. Cathy Stinear, who is renowned worldwide for her research efforts in the field of motor recovery, discussed advances in research and the clinical implementation.
• Finally, Dr. Viet Luc Tran from Vietnam talked about the importance of post-stroke rehabilitation in acute and subacute care and how low- and middle-income countries in particular can develop programs to provide effective treatments nationwide.
