Smartwatch and External Holter Monitoring to Detect Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Cryptogenic Stroke
Stroke recurrence largely depends on the detection of the cause and the control of vascular risk factors, with occult atrial fibrillation (AF) being one of the most important. Prolonged ambulatory cardiac monitoring is recommended for detecting occult AF. Currently, there are non-invasive monitoring devices such as the textile Holter that …
A Pilot Study to Assess Optimal Prevention and Outcome Improvement in Young Ischemic Stroke
Purpose The Y-SCOPE study aims to improve the health and recovery of young adults aged 18 to 65 who have experienced an ischemic stroke or a high-risk transient ischemic attack (TIA). By focusing on personalized care and lifestyle changes, the study seeks to reduce the chances of another stroke and …
Atrial Anomalies Predict Silent Atrial Fibrillation Detected by Implantable Cardiac Monitor in Cryptogenic Stroke
Cryptogenic stroke (CS) causes about 30% of admissions to a stroke unit. Silent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) is believed to be the underlying cause of a significant proportion of patients. The use of implantable cardiac monitors (ICM) early after the CS has demonstrated benefits in the diagnostic yield, but the …
Timing of Anticoagulation After Emergency Endovascular Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke With Atrial Fibrillation
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of early versus delayed initiation of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients with acute ischemic stroke related to atrial fibrillation after emergency endovascular therapy (EVT).
Comparative Effects of Sensory Augmentation and Neuromodulation on Enhancing Motor Recovery Among Stroke Survivors
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two rehabilitation techniques-Sensory Augmentation (using mirror therapy) and Neuromodulation (using transcranial direct current stimulation, tDCS)-in improving motor recovery among stroke survivors. Stroke often results in long-term impairments, particularly in upper limb motor function, which is critical for daily activities. Although current rehabilitation …
ICF-Based Effects of PNF and Kinesio Taping on Hand Function in Hemiplegic Stroke
This clinical trial aims to compare the effects of kinesio taping and PNF on hemiplegic hand functions. In addition, the effects of these applications on body structure, activity, and participation will be examined. The main questions it aims to answer are: Do kinesio taping and PNF applications have different effects …
Effect of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation Application on Respiratory Functions in Stroke Patients
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation (TAVSS) in improving respiratory muscle strength and function in chronic stroke patients. It aims to explore TAVSS as a potential complementary approach in enhancing rehabilitation outcomes for this population.
Cognitive Strategies for Optimizing Brain Health And Managing Transgenerational Vascular Risk Factors Post-Stroke
People living with the cognitive effects of stroke are at risk for recurrent stroke and further cognitive decline. Also problematic is that stroke risk clusters in families and biological family members of people who have ischemic stroke may also be at increased risk of stroke and/or cognitive decline. The primary …
Construction and Clinical Validation Study of a Prediction Model for Depression After Ischemic Stroke
Post-stroke depression (PSD) is the most common neuropsychiatric disorder after a stroke, with an incidence rate of 20% to 60%. PSD is not only associated with higher mortality rates, poorer recovery, more obvious cognitive impairments, greater economic burdens, and lower quality of life, but also brings additional medical expenses and …
Evaluation and Prediction of the Effect of EECP on HR-NICE Patients
Stroke is one of the most threatening causes of mortality and disability worldwide. High risk non-disabling ischemic cerebrovascular events (HR-NICE), defined by mild stroke complicating with greater than 50% atherosclerotic stenosis in intracranial or extracranial arteries, is more likely to develop severe stroke in future. Currently, the clinical treatment for …
