Speakers: Dr. Dipl. Psychologist Friedemann Müller, Chief Physician, Schön Klinik Bad Aibling Harthausen Martina Steinböck, M.Sc, Physiotherapist, Schön Klinik Bad Aibling Harthausen Patients with severe paralysis after a stroke develop a disability due to spasticity in at least 20 percent of cases, which is usually only inadequately treated. Due to the complexity of the syndrome, the term spasticity is increasingly being replaced by the term "spastic movement disorder" (SBS). A multi-professional approach is essential for successful treatment. However, the possibilities and activities of affected patients themselves are increasingly coming into focus. Increasing the intensity of therapy is a goal in almost all rehabilitation efforts. Self-exercises are particularly effective when used by SBS patients in combination with BoNT therapies. The concept of guided self-rehabilitation goes back to the French neurologist Jean-Michel Gracies: It recommends that patients undertake a daily self-training program for the muscles of the spastic limbs and is monitored using a diary-based strategy. The techniques include static stretching postures alternating with rapid alternating movements, each with maximum amplitude, in order to gradually reduce the co-contraction of the antagonists. The Engage study showed that the therapeutic effect could be maintained after administration of BonNT and further improved by additional injection treatments.15 (Gracies et al. 2021).We want to make this therapy option available to our patients as well and therefore introduce it in this workshop.Advanced training points at Blaek have been applied for.Venue:Schön Klinik Bad Aibling HarthausenRaum Starnberger SeeKolbermoorer Straße 7283043 Bad Aiblingwww.schoen-klinik.de/bad-aibling-harthausen

09.02.2024 Article from our cooperation partner - Stroke SupportRisk factors: Periodontitis as a risk factor for stroke

Guest article by a dentist about what periodontitis has to do with strokes. There are numerous risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases, including stroke.

23.10.2023 Article in the Ärzteblatt ThüringenGuideline-based treatment of stroke-associated spasticity: Botulinum toxin used too rarely

According to expert estimates, around 10,000 people in Thuringia suffer a stroke every year. Of the stroke survivors, around 30 to 40 percent subsequently develop a spastic movement disorder within around six months. This not only leads to clinically relevant functional limitations, but also sometimes causes considerable pain and difficulties in terms of care and personal hygiene. The quality of life of those affected is usually significantly reduced. ...Link to articlehttps://www.aerzteblatt-thueringen.de/pdf/thu2310_033.pdf

Photos: Practice Dr. med. Axel Schramm

On Thursday, March 23, 2023, Prof. Dr. med. Siegfried Jedamzik and Ms. Hess had the opportunity to look over Dr. med. Axel Schramm's shoulder at work in the NeuroPraxis in Fürth. Dr. med. Axel Schramm is an experienced neurologist who specializes in the treatment with botulinum toxin (BoNT).During the visit, Dr. med. Axel Schramm showed the two visitors how he treated three patients with BoNT. The first patient had congenital spasticity and was treated with BoNT on his hand and foot. The second patient had cervical dystonia and was treated with BoNT in several places on his neck and throat. The third patient had spasticity in his right arm after a stroke and was treated with BoNT in several places.Due to the different diagnoses, Prof. Dr. med. Siegfried Jedamzik and Ms. Hess were able to see Dr. med. Axel Schramm can understand this very well. A medical assistant supported him by helping the patient get dressed and undressed, drawing up the medication and assisting with the BoNT therapy. Dr. med. Axel Schramm used the support of ultrasound to place the medication precisely at the correct spot in the muscles. As a neurologist, Dr. med. Axel Schramm has special training to recognize muscles, nerves, vessels and organs in the ultrasound image and thus ensure a precise injection.Prof. Dr. med. Siegfried Jedamzik had the opportunity to interview the patients and all patients stated that they felt a significant relief of their symptoms, even pain relief, after just a few days of treatment. These successes are the result of Dr. med. Axel Schramm's outstanding work and his expertise in this field.The visit to Dr. med. Axel Schramm in his practice in Fürth was a valuable experience for Prof. Dr. med. Siegfried Jedamzik and Ms. Hess. They were impressed by the professionalism and expertise of Dr. Axel Schramm and the great results he achieved with his BoNT therapy. They wish him continued success and are grateful for the opportunity to observe his work up close.
