Good afternoon all, I'm finishing up my last 3 weeks of my level II's and am working in an Acute Care setting of a local hospital. I'm working on a presentation regarding some new possible treatments for CVA's. Currently I've looked up some research on: Robotic Assisted Rehab Virtual Reality Motor Imagery as well as info on: Sensory stimulation Extended therapy Intensity vs Task Specificity I've noticed a great deal of the acute care setting is working on rote skills like bathing, dressing, getting up/down from a standard toilet, etc (I've read much on here about this not being "skilled OT", and I tend to agree. However, at the moment, I'm merely the "student" and am not yet in a position to argue for or against points of view. Anyway, back to my original question...I guess I'm looking for some new ideas/techniques being used (outside of NDT, PNF, etc), preferrably in an hospital setting. I was also looking for some new ideas/techniques for unilateral neglect remediation as well as treatments for right and left cva's. If any or all can assist with some ideas, I'd be MOST appreciative. Even if many of the ideas/thoughts presented are "old" they may still be of value, at least to my own personal education anyway. Thank you! Ron
