Using a Webcam to Assess Upper Extremity Proprioception: Experimental Validation and Application to Persons Post Stroke by Guillem Cornella-Barba, Andria J. Farrens, Christopher A. Johnson, Luis Garcia-Fernandez, Vicky Chan, David J. Reinkensmeyer

“…Individuals post stroke exhibited increased pointing error (<i>p</i> < 0.001) that was correlated with finger proprioceptive error measured with an independent, robotic assessment (r = 0.62, <i>p</i> = 0.02). These results validate a novel method to assess UE proprioception ability using affordable computer technology, which provides a potential means to democratize quantitative proprioception testing in clinical and telemedicine environments.…”

Differential Impact of Acute Lesions Versus White Matter Hyperintensities on Stroke Recovery by Rachel L. Hawe, Sonja E. Findlater, Jeffrey M. Kenzie, Michael D. Hill, Stephen H. Scott, Sean P. Dukelow

“…Apart from the robotic position sense task, neither lesion volume nor WMH measure had significant ability to predict outcomes at 6 months over using initial impairment as measured by robotic assessments alone. Conclusions While acute lesion volume and WMH may impact different impairments poststroke, their clinical utility in predicting outcomes at 6 months poststroke is limited.…”
