Cortical plasticity has been associated with the recovery of function after a stroke or other neurological disorders. Recognition of the potential for sensory intervention to promote cortical plasticity is gaining ground. There is emerging evidence that interventions targeting the sensory systems can result in improvements in areas such as motor capacity, neglect, and spasticity (Rosenkranz & Rothwell 2012; Sullivan & Hedman 2008). Sensory intervention studies have reported positive functional outcomes for gait speed, amount and type of assistance required for gait, postural sway, balance, arm function, and swallowing effectiveness (Sullivan & Hedman 2008).
The caudate and putamen together are collectively known as the striatum (Fig. 13). The BG nuclei constitute one functional unit, also referred to as basal nuclei, and play a very important role in motor function. The BG are interconnected with all lobes of the cortex and subcortical structures and are organized in several anatomically and functionally different networks. Cortical loops provide the BG with massive information that is processed before “replies” are sent back to the cortex. Different parts of the BG assist different areas of the cortex in specialized tasks.
Thus it is of great therapeutic importance to assess the whole body of the neurological patient. 2 Systems Control: Systems and Structures Concerned with Movement and Sensorimotor Integration 31 The Basal Ganglia Traditionally, the BG have been considered first and foremost to participate in motor control. However, the past 20 years have given us more knowledge of BG function, and, consequently, more functions are attributed to the BG (Haber & Calzavara 2009). The BG are a collection of several interconnected nuclei: the caudate nucleus, putamen, globus pallidus, subthalamic nucleus, and substantia nigra (SNr).
