physical therapy in stroke patient?We Answered:
I agree with the post above. It depends on a multitude of factors including their medical status, deficits, psychosocial factors and current functional status.Generally speaking, however, physical therapy usually starts off in the hospital with a basic mobility assessment which takes into a account how "sick" is the patient, what barries do they have for discharge home, what are their needs, what aspects can the family provide, etc. At this point, basic mobility is assessed and a discharge recommendation is made...home, outpatient, acture rehab, day rehab, sub-acute, etc. Therapy is concordantly initiated and usually focuses on basic mobility and transfers.
If needed, the patient is then discharged to the appropriate setting where mobility and independence in care is emphasized. There is usually a large component of family teaching.
The next stage might be day rehab, home health or outpatient rehab...depending on their individual needs. This is where movement is fine tuned and progress takes place over weeks to months as opposed to days.
Patients can be working on a number of things at any one stage...depending on what are their needs. Some patients need significant focus on the upper extremity, for others, it is flaccid and there is little that can be done, some require constraint induced therapy, others need to practice weight bearing.
It's really too broad of a topic to cover specifically...it's driven on the patient's needs and prognosis.

what is difference between chiropractic & physical therapy treatments?We Answered:
When chiropractic works, it is BECAUSE they are doing physical therapy, not chiropractic. Many allied health professionals do versions of physical therapy such as massage therapists, osteopaths, sports medicine doctors, sports trainers and physiotherapists. Their costs are often much lower than chiropractors as well.When chiropractors actually do chiropractic...they make magical claims of "aligning the spine" to "reduce subluxation" and "unblock the innate energy"....but their results are no better than placebo.
Chiropractic is mostly bunk...but some of them have learned a little physical therapy along the way.
