A 67year old known hypertensive and diabetic right handed man who was diagnosed of stroke post COVID-19 and presented with impaired motor functions essentially of right limbs; trunk impairment; impaired balance and loss of ambulatory function was daily managed with paced capacity based physiotherapy protocols which was gradually increased within tolerated levels until he became stable ambulatory wise without any respiratory distress, at which point he was discharged from physiotherapy, Katz Score being 6/6 and gait speed which was 0.18m/s at start of ambulation rose to 1.47m/s with maximum ambulatory distance of 103m at a stretch and SPO2 at 95%. Peripheral Agraphia identified at 7weeks post physiotherapy intervention was productively managed with Recall and Copy Treatment, RACT, the writing became very legible.The adopted physiotherapy interventions ensured Physical Activity Reactivation (PAR) with the patient being able to 'step out' with reassured health life and integration into normal activities of daily living (ADL). The Functional Physical Activity Tempo (FPAT) can be sustained post COVID Rehabilitation once it's well considered and integrated into rehabilitation protocols. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
