Area of Science:

  • Neurorehabilitation
  • Biomechanics
  • Motor Control

Background:

  • Compensatory motor strategies are common after stroke but lack a unified kinematic synthesis.
  • Understanding these strategies is crucial for effective rehabilitation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically map compensatory strategies and their kinematic characteristics in individuals post-stroke.
  • To cover mobility, postural control, and upper-limb functional tasks.

Main Methods:

  • A scoping review following Joanna Briggs Institute methodology.
  • Searched 10 databases up to August 2024, including 101 motion analysis studies.
  • Synthesized data on compensatory strategies and kinematic parameters across task categories.

Main Results:

  • Mobility: Asymmetrical weight-bearing, reduced step length/cadence, prolonged movement time, decreased joint excursion.
  • Postural Control: Weight-bearing asymmetry, increased center of pressure displacement, reduced weight-shifting.
  • Upper Limb: Prolonged movement time, limited elbow extension, increased trunk/shoulder use.

Conclusions:

  • This review provides a structured, task-based overview of post-stroke compensatory motor behaviors.
  • The findings highlight specific kinematic alterations associated with functional tasks, informing rehabilitation.
  • Offers a comprehensive map of motor adaptations for improved clinical practice and research.
