The Effect of Cupping on Spasticity and Function of the Lower Extremity During Rehabilitation After Stroke
Physical therapists use dry static cupping for the treatment of many conditions, including spasticity for patients post-stroke. While research better describes the effects of dry static cupping for patients with orthopedic conditions, information is lacking on central conditions, such as stroke and resulting spasticity.
Efficacy of Sensory Reweighting Techniques for Balance and Risk of Fall in Chronic Ischemic Stroke Patients
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness of sensory reweighting techniques on balance and risk of falls in individuals with chronic ischemic stroke. A total of 46 participants will be recruited using purposive sampling and randomly assigned into two groups through the sealed envelope method. Balance and fall risk …
DECT for Differentiating Intracerebral Hemorrhage From Contrast Extravasation
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the use of DECT (Dual-Energy Computed Tomography) in patients with acute ischemic stroke who receive an intervention (thrombolysis or thrombectomy). The main questions to answer are: Can DECT more accurately differentiate hyperdensities as intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) or contrast extravasation compared with …
Lower Extremity Pressure Splints in HP
Hemiplegia (weakness or paralysis on one side of the body) often impacts the lower extremities, making it challenging for patients to walk or move their legs effectively. This study aims to explore the effects of pressure splints on the lower extremity movement and function in individuals who have experienced a …
Informative of Surface Electromyography and Prognostic Factors in Assessing the Recovery of Balance and Gait After Stroke
The aim of the biomedical research is to determine the informativeness and prognostic factors of surface electromyography by assessing the probability of recovery of balance and gait parameters in the second stage of rehabilitation of persons with cerebral infarction.
The Effects of Muscle Vibration on the Development of Spasticity and Neuroplasticity in a Post-stroke Population
Several studies have recently tested the use of muscle vibration for the rehabilitation of patients after a stroke. When applied in a repeated and focused manner, this vibration appears to promote the recovery of functional capacities through the mechanisms of neuromuscular plasticity. These results are encouraging, showing in particular a …
Vivifrail Program on the Degree of Debilitation in Hospitalized Patients After Venous Hemolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Physical exercise is an effective strategy to maintain functional ability and improve debilitating symptoms in the elderly.In addition to functional enhancement, exercise is considered a cornerstone for enhancing cognitive function in debilitated older adults with cognitive impairment and dementia.The investigators evaluated the effect of the Vivifrail exercise intervention on the …
Comparison of Clopidogrel-based Antiplatelet Therapy Versus Warfarin as Secondary Prevention Strategy for AntiPhospholipid Syndrome-related STROKE
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) has a close association with ischemic stroke; however, the optimal treatment strategy for APS-related stroke has yet to be established. The clinical guidelines suggest using warfarin for APS-related stroke, but these suggestions are largely based on retrospective studies from the 1990s and expert opinion, rather than high-quality …
Stroke Volume Variation Versus Central Venous Pressure Guidance for Reducing Perioperative Blood Loss During Open Liver Resection
Liver resection is a major surgery that can be associated with significant intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion. Among high-volume centers, median intraoperative blood loss ranges between 300-800 ml. Excessive blood loss is a strong independent predictor of worsened postoperative outcomes, increasing morbidity and mortality rates by 20%-35%. Additionally, perioperative …
Spatiotemporal Gait Parameters of Healthy and Stroke Patients During Overground, Treadmill, and Body Weight Supported Treadmill Walking
Gait impairments following a stroke significantly hinder mobility and quality of life, emphasizing the need for precise assessment methods to guide effective rehabilitation strategies. This study evaluates the variability and reliability of spatiotemporal gait parameters across three walking modalities: overground walking, treadmill walking, and body-weight-supported treadmill walking. Using a counterbalanced …
