Stroke is the UK's leading cause of disability. Stroke rehabilitation can maximise recovery and improve quality of life. This article discusses some post-stroke impairments, including hemiplegia, dysphagia, communication impairments and neglect, and how rehabilitation can address these. Developing techniques of adaptation or compensation is vital, since the extent of stroke recovery is dependent on successful neuroplasticity, with healthy neurons adapting to compensate for damaged ones.
中风是英国的主要致残原因。中风康复可以最大限度地恢复和提高生活质量。本文讨论了一些中风后的障碍，包括偏瘫、吞咽困难、沟通障碍和忽视，以及康复如何解决这些问题。发展适应或补偿技术至关重要，因为中风恢复的程度取决于成功的神经可塑性，健康的神经元会适应并补偿受损的神经元。
