RehabCast: The Rehabilitation Medicine Update

Robotics & Restoration: Transforming Stroke and Spasticity Care


Listen Later

In the 53rd episode of RehabCast, we spotlight two revolutionary approaches that are transforming the world of rehabilitation. First, Kristin Nuckols, an occupational therapist and co-founder of Imago Rehab, takes us on a journey through the creation of a wearable
soft robotic glove. This groundbreaking device empowers stroke survivors to regain independence by bringing therapy into their homes.
Next, we sit down with Dr. Alberto Esquenazi, an internationally renowned expert in spasticity management, who shares insights from his landmark longitudinal study on botulinum toxin. He explains how precision treatments and patient-centered goals are unlocking
new possibilities in functional recovery.
From robotics to cutting-edge clinical care, these conversations shine a light on how innovation and collaboration are breaking barriers and reshaping rehabilitation for the better.
#RehabCast is the PM&R podcast for all of rehabilitation medicine: physiatry, occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech language pathology, neuropsychology, rehabilitation nursing, and more.
