Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, Advances in the Rehabilitation of Stroke, brings together current research and emerging insights aimed at improving outcomes across the continuum of stroke rehabilitation. It welcomes studies that explore innovative interventions, predictive factors, care models, and outcome measures relevant to the acute, post-acute, and chronic phases of recovery. Topics may include the effectiveness of multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs, functional and cognitive assessments, prognostic indicators, health service utilization, and patient-centered care strategies. Collectively, the contributions to this Special Issue aim to support evidence-based practice and foster interdisciplinary dialogue to advance the field of stroke rehabilitation. In addition, research employing any type of study design that contributes to the current knowledge in this area is encouraged for submission.
