Host Jackie Loeshelle is joined by Dr. George Hornby for a Part II discussion on the Locomotor CPG. The Locomotor CPG identifies the most optimal interventions for gait recovery based on current evidence for individuals with chronic stroke, incomplete spinal cord injury, and traumatic brain injury. This episode delves deeper into the background and design of the CPG, how the literature search occurred, and how the authors interpreted results to develop recommendations. Dr. Hornby also discusses implementation and audit strategies for high intensity gait training in the clinical setting.

In this episode, Parm talks to Beth Fisher about her 2019 John H.P. Maley Lecture ““Beyond Limits: Unmasking Potential Through Movement Discovery.” Dr. Fisher gives examples across diagnoses of how to integrate exploration of the patient’s implicit movement choices into PT assessment and treatment. We also gain insight into some of her groundbreaking work with people with Parkinson’s Disease. Join us as we learn how to push our patients to their full potential by challenging their existing movement strategies.
