Finger Movement Training After Stroke
Human development as a species has been strongly associated with the ability to dexterously manipulate objects and tools. Unfortunately, current therapy efforts typically fail to restore fine manual control after stroke. The goal of this study is to evaluate a new intervention that would combine targeted electrical stimulation of selected …
Multisite Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation to Promote Hand Function Recovery After Stroke
A novel multisite high definition tDCS (HD-tDCS) in healthy people showed that such network-targeted stimulation could enhance motor excitability beyond traditional stimulation which targeting only one region. It showed that the excitability following multisite HD-tDCS was more than double the increase following conventional tDCS. To consider the various lesion site …
Personalized Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Stroke Recovery
The central objective of this application is to explore the neural substrate of personalized tDCS (ptDCS) and to determine whether the paradigm for each stroke patient can predict the amount of sustained clinical improvement through increased connectivity as measured by a biomarker of plasticity.
Perceptions of RehAtt Mixed Reality System
The study aims to explore the patients' perspective on usability and feasibility of the RehAtt™ mixed-reality system during upper limb, gait and balance function rehabilitation.
Does High-intensity Exercise Lead to Better Functional Outcomes Early After Stroke in an Inpatient Rehabilitation Setting?
The purpose of this study is to find out the effectiveness of high intensity exercise (HIE) early after stroke, this study is hoping to recruit 36 participants in total and will be analysing pre- and post- outcomes of patients in a high intensity exercise intervention, as compared to a lower …
The Effects of Home-based Graded Repetitive Arm Supplementary Program Group on Stroke.
Graded repetitive arm supplementary program (GRASP) is a self administrated, home-based rehabilitation program and has been incorporated in Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations. Past studies indicated that the home-based GRASP program could facilitate the motor function and motor recovery and prevent learned nonuse of affected upper limb of stroke patients. …
Effects of Proprioceptive Sensitivity Stimulation Via the SURA Electrodevice on Kinematics, Kinetics and Spatiotemporal Parameters of Gait.
Recovery of function in people with central nervous system (CNS) injury after stroke is very much like a relearning process that takes advantage of preserved sensorimotor circuits. Relearning can be optimised by providing appropriate proprioceptive (or deep sensory) information to the spinal cord with the aim of maximally engaging the …
Virtual Reality and Neurostimulation for Early Stroke Rehabilitation
Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability, leaving millions of individuals each year impaired with lasting motor and sensory impairments. In the subacute phase, which goes from the first week to 3 months post-stroke, the patient has the highest recovery, which could be boosted by proper technologies intended …
A New At-home Telerehabilitation Care Service Delivery Model for Stroke Survivors in the Rio Grande Valley
The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of a mobile telerehabilitation software for post-acute stroke care for Rio Grande Valley (RGV) stroke survivors with community health worker (CHW) at-home support and to estimate the functional health, mental health (depression), and caregiver burden outcomes of this new CHW-supported, …
Telerehabilitation Robotics for Upper Limb Rehabilitation After STroke
There has been an observed decrease in motor and functional ability and non-use of the impaired limb in chronic patients. This is due to the immediate drop in intensive daily therapy (5 days per week for 3 hours/day) that is usually provided during the inpatient (acute) phase upon discharge from …
