Abstract

Introduction: The persistent high rate of disability in people after stroke in Poland and globally requires continuous analysis of the effectiveness of rehabilitation. This review of the global literature analyzes the effectiveness of two therapeutic concepts in relation to changes in the autonomic nervous system and gait quality. Material and Methods: We searched PubMed for available literature using keywords. The search included literature available in English between January 2000 and June 2017. Results: Most studies described in this literature review did not show any significant advantage in terms of effectiveness of neurorehabilitation methods over conventional ones. Conclusions: The effectiveness of rehabilitation focuses mainly on modulating brain plasticity associated with neurologic deficits in the central nervous system, ignoring the autonomic nervous system.
