Sažetak
The aim is to present and discuss the challenges of neurorehabilitation approach in patients with involuntary hyperkinetic movements. Hyperkinetic movement disorder caused by a stroke requires a neurorehabilitation care team. Hemichoreahemiballism have been most commonly reported after stroke. Physiotherapy may have a significant role to empower the control of involuntary movements using sensory tricks and task-oriented training with automatic antygravity movements. Patients with hyperkinetic movements face a great risk of falling and are prone to self-harm and fractures. In order to prevent patients from possible fractures they need to be provided with cushioning aids such as head protectors. The education of immediate family is necessary so patients could function in their environment. The most commonly reported pharmacological treatments for hyperkinetic movements after stroke have been dopamine receptor blockers, particularly haloperidol.
