The Role of Peripheral Afferents in Modulating Post-stroke Central Pain
Central post-stroke pain (CPP) is extremely difficult to relieve and responds very poorly to analgesics targeting neuropathic pain, probably because the mechanisms underlying this pain remain poorly understood. Stroke pain is traditionally considered to be of central origin and related to changes in the spinal cord and/or brain nociceptive systems. …
Comparative Effects of Intensive and Distributed CIMT on Upper Extremity Function in Stroke Patients
The main question this clinical trial is aims to answer is whether intensive and distributed constraint-induced movement therapy has similar effects on upper extremity function in participants with stroke. Participants will receive intensive protocol of CIMT for 6 hours for 6 days to make total of 36 hours while distributed …
Precision Sensorimotor Neurorehabilitation Through Personalized Stimulation Loops
Stroke is the most common neurological disease in the elderly population and accounts for substantial disability and health care costs. Disability is largely driven by mobility deficits caused by impaired gait. Effective treatments are available to restore lower limb function and improve gait, but response to treatment varies greatly from …
Effect of Frontal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on BDNF in Stroke Patients With Cognitive Impairment
The purpose of the clinical trial is to find a treatment for stroke patients with cognitive impairment, and the main questions it aims to answer are: [Search for effective treatments of cognitive impairment after stroke] [explore the relationship between BDNF level and cognitive function] Participants will receive conventional treatment, tDCS …
Multimodal Platform Combining VR and TENS for Stroke Rehabilitation
Stroke is a disabling medical condition annually affecting up to 15 million people worldwide. It leads to upper-limb impairments encompassing motor and sensory deficits together with cognitive self-body and space misrepresentation, overall limiting the functional independence of 70% of stroke survivors. On the motor side, stroke could account for hemiparesis …
SURGERY VS BOTULINUM TOXIN ON QUALITY OF LIFE IN STROKE PATIENTS: RANDOMIZED TRIAL
We present a research project in the form of a controlled clinical trial with the aim of analyzing and demonstrating whether the surgical treatment of upper limb spasticity is an effective and efficient measure to improve dependence and quality of life perceived by patients with sequelae of stroke and therefore, …
Weight Loss and ExeRcise
Weight loss interventions for neurologically health individuals have established benefits for improving physical and psychosocial function. The investigators believe that Veterans who have had a stroke would realize similar benefits and that the effects would be enhanced with concurrent exercise training. The investigators will study the effects of a 15-week …
Effect of Foot Insole on Body Alignment, and in Stroke Patients
Goal: This study will be conducted to find out the effects of customized insole on foot alignment, body alignment, and balance ability of stroke patients. Recruitment: Total 20 participants will be recruited and will be divided into 2 groups: Intervention and control group with or without wearing foot insole for …
Adaptive Hip Exoskeleton for Stroke Gait Enhancement
This work will focus on new algorithms for robotic exoskeletons and testing these in human subject tests. Individuals who have previously had a stroke will walk while wearing a robotic exoskeleton on a specialized treadmill as well as during other movement tasks (e.g. over ground, stairs, ramps). The study will …
Optimizing the Prehospital Use of Stroke Systems of Care-Reacting to Changing Paradigms-Implementation (OPUS-i)
This interventional trial will compare a novel prehospital stroke transport algorithm (OPUS-i) to a traditional prehospital stroke transport algorithm to improve outcomes in rural stroke patients by determining the effect of implementing a data-driven prehospital stroke algorithm on time to and endovascular therapy. The study consists of a multicenter cohort …
