treatment interventionsBACKGROUND: Pusher syndrome (PS) is a clinical disorder that causes decreased postural balance and active pushing away from the non-hemiparetic side in patients with right or left brain damage. Therapists are challenged by needing to manage both the hemiparetic and the pushing/...
Pusher syndrome is a disorder of postural control after stroke. Patients show a mismatch in their perception of (almost preserved) visual and (pathologically tilted) postural verticality. In order to reduce this mismatch, we developed a novel head-mounted Tilted Reality Device (TRD). It presents ...
Pusher Syndrome In theJournal of Neurologic Physical Therapy, pusher syndrome is defined as: “leaning and active pushing toward the hemiplegic side with no compensation for the instability, and resistance to passive correction toward the midline.” Part of this may be because of an altered sense ...
FIGS. 70 A and B show two pusher tube locations of the button geometry;FIG. 71 shows a schematic of effective shorting of a pusher tube in the G2 injector; andFIG. 72 illustrates where the pusher-tube resides when the G2 injector is cocked.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS...
Pusher syndromeStrokeIntroduction/Background To observe the effect of central integration concept based treatment on Pusher Syndrome after stroke and illustrate the relationship between cognition integration and motor control after stroke, providing a new potential way to treat stroke. Material and method ...

Introduction Pusher syndrome is characterised by the patient pushing towards the hemiparetic side with the contralateral side, in a sitting position, standing and during movement, surpassing the gravitational mean line, which produces inappropriate adjustment and postural control. Objective To determine the...
