Determinants of Mobility and Self-care in Older People With Stroke: Importance of Somatosensory and Perceptual Functions

Authors:

Abstract
Background and Purpose: Somatosensory as well as mental impairments are easily overlooked after acute stroke. Furthermore, their associations with activity limitations are not fully understood. The purpose of this study was to examine this association and whether the assessment of somatosensory functions will provide information on perceptual functions after acute stroke.
