Stroke survivors’ views on their priorities for upper-limb recovery and the availability of therapy services after stroke: a longitudinal, phenomenological study (2022)
Journal Article
Purton, J., Sim, J., & M. Hunter, S. (2022). Stroke survivors’ views on their priorities for upper-limb recovery and the availability of therapy services after stroke: a longitudinal, phenomenological study. Disability and Rehabilitation, 45(19), 3059-3069. https://doi.org/10.1080/09638288.2022.2120097

Purpose
Forty percent of stroke survivors have a persistent lack of function in the upper limb, causing significant disability. Most personal-care tasks and meaningful activities require bi-manual function of both upper limbs. However, lower-limb mo...

Perceptual Disorders After Stroke: A Scoping Review of Interventions (2022)
Journal Article
Hunter. (2022). Perceptual Disorders After Stroke: A Scoping Review of Interventions. Stroke, 1772 - 1787. https://doi.org/10.1161/STROKEAHA.121.035671

Perceptual disorders relating to hearing, smell, somatosensation, taste, touch, and vision commonly impair stroke survivors' ability to interpret sensory information, impacting on their ability to interact with the world. We aimed to identify and sum... Read More about Perceptual Disorders After Stroke: A Scoping Review of Interventions.

The mutual benefits of patient and public involvement in research: an example from a feasibility study (MoTaStim-Foot) (2021)
Journal Article
Aries, A., Bailey, P., & Hunter, S. (2021). The mutual benefits of patient and public involvement in research: an example from a feasibility study (MoTaStim-Foot). Research Involvement and Engagement, 7, Article 87. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40900-021-00330-w

Patient and public involvement (PPI) in research has increased steadily over the last two decades and is now both expected and appropriately resourced by many funding bodies, including the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR). However, PPI i... Read More about The mutual benefits of patient and public involvement in research: an example from a feasibility study (MoTaStim-Foot).

Age suit simulation replicates in healthy young adults the functional challenges to balance experienced by older adults: an observational study (2021)
Journal Article

<jats:sec><jats:title>Background</jats:title><jats:p>Age simulation can have a positive effect on empathic understanding and perception of ageing. However, there is limited evidence for its ability to replicate objectively the physical and functional...

Using the TIDieR Checklist to Standardize the Description of a Functional Strength Training Intervention for the Upper Limb After Stroke. (2016)
Journal Article
Hunter, S. (2016). Using the TIDieR Checklist to Standardize the Description of a Functional Strength Training Intervention for the Upper Limb After Stroke. Journal of Neurologic Physical Therapy, 203 - 208. https://doi.org/10.1097/NPT.0000000000000133

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Published reports of intervention in randomized controlled trials are often poorly described. The Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist has been recently developed to improve the reporting of...
