Validity and Reliability of the Virtual Reality-Based 9-Hole Peg Test in Stroke Patients
The goal of this observational study is to demonstrate diagnostic value of a VR-based 9-hole peg test (9HPT) for the evaluation of manual dexterity in stroke patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the VR-based 9HPT a reliable and valid diagnostic tool to evaluate manual dexterity in …
Turkish Validity and Reliability of the Expanded Rehabilitation Complexity Scale
The RCS is a tool that can assess the need for complex rehabilitation and objectively indicate that a patient may have difficulty functioning well at home or in the community if their medical needs are still high. Among rehabilitation patients, there are still patients with complex needs, even though they …
Upper Limb Movement Quality Following Stroke
The aim of this study is to monitor the daily upper limb movement of persons with stroke, and to relate these quantities to measures of recovery and impairment.
Cortical Activation During Walking in Stroke
After stroke, damage to one cerebral hemisphere disrupts the normal balance of activity between the two hemispheres. The affected hemisphere typically exhibits reduced excitability, whereas the unaffected side may demonstrate increased excitability. This phenomenon, referred to as interhemispheric imbalance, further inhibits activity in the affected hemisphere, thereby restricting motor recovery. …
Food Quantification Using a Novel, User Friendly Plate Imaging System
This pilot study aims to assess the feasibility of implementing a plate imaging system for dietary assessment in a stroke rehabilitation ward at University Hospital Southampton. The duration of the study is 12 weeks with an estimated sample size of 50 patients. This is a single centre study.
Tracking Balance and Walking Recovery After Stroke
This study aims to understand how balance and walking abilities recover after a stroke, using innovative tools like an interactive assessment game. By observing patients over time, the investigators seek to identify recovery patterns that can improve rehabilitation strategies tailored to individual needs. Interacting with a game designed to assess …
Gait Characteristics at Different Speeds in Individuals With Stroke
Stroke is the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of death combined with disability worldwide. Despite improved recognition and management of stroke risk factors, the risk of stroke has increased by 50% in the last two decades due to increased life expectancy, currently affecting one in …
Thoracolumbar Fascia Thickness in Chronic Stroke Patients
The main objective of this study was to examine the thoracolumbar fascia thickness in chronic stroke patients using objective methods and to reveal the relationship of this flexibility with balance, trunk control, trunk flexibility, functional independence and other relevant clinical parameters. Demographic information will be recorded and evaluated. Thoracolumbar fascia …
Effects of Flexion and Extension Type Arm Slings on Walking Kinematics and Balance in Stroke Patients
In the clinic, stroke patients are seen to use flexor or extensor type arm slings, but no study was found investigating the effects of these different types of arm slings on walking kinematics and balance. The aim of the presented study was to investigate the effects of different types of …
Prognostic Biomarkers for Selective Intra-Arterial Cooling Infusion Combined with Endovascular Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke Based on Proteomics and Metabolomics.
Endovascular Thrombectomy has emerged as a pivotal treatment modality for acute ischemic stroke. However, despite successful thrombus removal, a substantial proportion of patients still experience poor outcomes. Selective intra-arterial cooling has shown promise in decelerating stroke progression and providing neuroprotection. This study aims to identify biomarkers associated with the combination …
