Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue invites a wide range of studies describing and assessing novel rehabilitation strategies related to gait, higher-brain dysfunction, motor impairment, brain function, and dysphagia in patients who have had a stroke. Despite the advancements in stroke rehabilitation with the development of science and technology, older forms of rehabilitation assessment and treatment are still being used, with few proposals for new strategies which would change existing rehabilitation practices. This Special Issue focuses on rehabilitation assessment methods and treatments, as well as novel rehabilitation proposals.
