Exoskeleton Research: Myoelectric Orthosis for Rehab of Severe Chronic Arm Motor Deficits
This study will evaluate the effects of combining motor learning-based therapy with use of the MyoPro , a wearable exoskeletal myoelectrically controlled orthotic device. MyoPro uses electromyographic (EMG) signals from the weak muscles to assist movement of the user's affected arm. The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial is …
Effects of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation on Cognitive Function and Upper Limb Motor Function in People With Chronic Stroke
Upper limb impairment is present in more than 85% of people with stroke, which greatly affect the quality of life, social participation, and performance of daily activities of people with stroke. Previous study also revealed that 53.4% of people after stroke experienced cognitive impairment. Different cognitive domains might be affected …
Walking Ankle isoKinetic Exercise
This study is a multi-center, interventional, experimental, prospective, controlled and randomized study. We propose a reeducation protocol based on an early over-solicitation of the ankle dorsiflexor muscles to promote their "awakening", limit the loss of strength associated with the functional loss and thus allow to reach a more effective walking …
Prismatic Lenses and tDCS in Neglect
The goal of this study is to to evaluate the effect and feasibility of a rehabilitation protocol with prismatic lenses associated with tDCS, compared to a prismatic lens rehabilitation protocol associated with sham stimulation, in reducing the signs of neglect in a group of patients with spatial heminegligence following ischemic …
Effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) on Upper Extremity Motor Function in Stroke Patients
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on upper extremity motor function in stroke patients. The main questions it seeks to answer are: Whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has a positive effect on upper extremity motor function in stroke patients. Which stimulation …
Effects of Local Vibrations Program of Dorsiflexor Muscles on Neuromotor Recovery in Subacute Stroke Patients.
The aim of the vibration intervention proposed in the current study is to allow a better neuromotor recovery in subacute stroke patients when compared with standard rehabilitation alone. These last years, it has been proven that the solicitation of a muscle using vibrations may lead to positive effects on the …
Strokectomy in Malignant Cerebral Media Infarction
Decompressive hemicraniectomy (DC) is the standard procedure and life saving measure in case of malignant middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction. However, there have been several studies reporting the neuroinflammatory cascade based on the necrotic tissue as one of the leading cause for the secondary brain damage, wherefore, strokectomy with resection …
PET/MR Multimodal Quantitative Analysis of CBF and CMRGlc in Cerebral Ischemia
Research Purpose: This project focuses on clinical research issues in the diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation of patients with cephalic and carotid atherosclerosis. Through multimodal imaging technology, it aims to optimize non-invasive quantitative algorithm models for cerebral blood flow and cerebral metabolism, explore new imaging markers, and investigate quantitative indicators of …
The RETRAIN Trial Phase 2
Ischaemic strokes, caused by a disruption in the brain's blood supply, are the second leading cause of death and disability in the United Kingdom. This single-center prospective randomised study aims to measure cerebral blood flow and oxygen delivery in patients who have recently suffered an ischaemic stroke and are using …
Motor Recovery Through Plasticity-Inducing Cortical Stimulation
Using the CorTec Brain Interchange (BIC) System, we will examine the effect of a plasticity-inducing therapy regime on the rehabilitation of upper limb impairment post-stroke. This study's main objective is to implement and evaluate neuroplasticity-inducing stimulation. The stimulation methods for inducing neuroplasticity have been selected based on prior preclinical and …
