“…There is limited research about the measurement and rehabilitation of individuals with lateropulsion following stroke. Measurement scales have primarily been used to assess postural control in this patient population (Koter et al, 2017). While force platforms are considered the gold standard for measuring postural control in various clinical groups, these are not readily available within the clinical environment.…”

This randomised pilot study compared the effects of a six-week, dance video game training programme with traditional agility ladder drills. Twenty-seven elite volleyball players participated and the Illinois Agility Test was used as the primary outcome measure. Significant improvement was seen in agility scores of the video game dance group with both an intention-to-treat analysis (ITTA), (median [Mdn]=-0.95, p=0.028), and per-protocol analysis (Mdn=-1.58, p=0.012). The ladder drills group showed no significant change in agility with the ITTA (Mdn=-0.71, p=0.062), but improvement was seen with the per-protocol analysis (Mdn=-0.85, p=0.028). Between group comparisons showed no significant difference in agility scores for the ITTA (p=0.650). However, with the per-protocol analysis, the video game dance training group demonstrated a significantly greater improvement in agility scores (Mdn=-1.58 sec; p=0.029.) compared with the ladder drills group (Mdn=-0.85 sec.). Changes observed for both analyses exceeded the minimal detectable change for the Illinois Agility Test, indicating that dance video game training may be a useful tool for clinicians wanting to enhance agility. Further research is warranted in this area.

“…To date, most interventions for reducing pushing symptoms have emphasized subjective postural vertical training with visual feedback (Koter et al, 2017;Paci et al, 2009). However, throughout the training in this study, the patients were encouraged to understand the mismatch between the true visual vertical and their own incorrect sense of their body's relation to gravity.…”

“…4,5,11 Two commonly referred-to scales have been validated to evaluate PB: the Burke Lateropulsion Scale (BLS) and the Scale for Contraversive Pushing (SCP). 2,[13][14][15][16] However, both scales have their limitations. The BLS takes up to 10 minutes to complete, 4 which may discourage busy clini cians from its use.…”

Purpose: The authors determined the reliability and validity of the Four-Point Pusher Score (4PPS) among stroke survivors. Method: Stroke survivors were invited to participate within 48 hours of admission to a stroke rehabilitation unit in a tertiary hospital. Intrarater reliability was determined by examining scores assigned to the same patient by the same physiotherapist. Interrater reliability was determined by examining scores assigned to the same patient by two other physiotherapists. Validity was determined by examining associations with the Burke Lateropulsion Scale (BLS), Scale for Contraversive Pushing (SCP), and functional scales. Results: A total of 85 participants who were a median of 13 (interquartile range 9-21) days post-stroke completed this study. The weighted k statistic for 4PPS intra-and interrater reliability was 0.97 (p < 0.001). Scores on the 4PPS were very strongly associated with scores on the BLS (r s = 0.95) and the SCP (r s = 0.86). Strong associations were evident between the 4PPS and the Berg Balance Scale (r s =-0.77), Chedoke-McMaster Stroke Assessment postural control scale (r s =-0.76), and FIM Motor sub-scale (r s =-0.64; all ps < 0.001). Conclusion: The 4PPS is a reliable and valid scale to assess lateropulsion and pusher behaviour in stroke survivors in an in-patient rehabilitation setting.
