Mirror Therapy With Cutaneous Electrical Sensory Stimulation on Lower Limb Motor Functions in Stroke
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of concurrent mirror therapy (MT) and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in augmenting the efficacy of the lower limb task-oriented training in people with stroke. It is hypothesize that MT combined with TENS would be superior to sham-mirror therapy with TENS, or MT …
The Whole Day Matters After Stroke (BIG-STEPS)
Goal of research program: To understand person-specific factors, such as imaging markers and activity patterns early after stroke, that may guide precision rehabilitation to optimize function and improve recovery. Objectives Test the effect of reducing sedentary behaviour early after stroke on functional mobility and global disability outcomes. Determine the impact …
Effect of Combining Central and Peripheral Cutaneous Electrical Stimulation on Lower Limb Motor Function in People With Stroke
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in augmenting the efficacy of the lower limb task-oriented training in people with stroke. It is hypothesize that lower limb motor function can be best improved by combining anodal tDCS with …
Evaluation of Percutaneous Cryoneurotomy Compared to Surgical Open Neurotomy for the Management of Equinovarus Foot Deformity in Patients With Refractory Lower Limb Spasticity After Stroke
CRYOSTROKE study is designed : to compare the efficacy and safety of percutaneous CryoNeurotomie (CN) versus surgical neurotomy (SN) on spasticity, 90 days after intervention, in post-stroke patients presenting with spastic equinovarus foot and, to ensure that potential clinical effect/safety remain stable within time, with a 12-month follow-up.
The Active Transition Home Post-Stroke Program
Post-stroke participants will wear wearable sensors for one week at 1-week prior to discharge from inpatient rehabilitation, 3- and 7- weeks post-discharge and 3-months post-discharge. All participants will wear sensors but only participants in the intervention group will receive sensor-informed activity feedback (e.g., activity, sleep and sedentary behaviour) and feedback …
Effects of Otago Exercises and Systematic Desensitization on Balance,Fall Risk and Basophobia Among Post Stroke Patients
The aim of the study is to determine the combined effects of Otago exercises and systematic desensitization on balance, fall risk, and basophobia among post-stroke older adults.
Virtual Reality Task Oriented Training on Upper Limb Function in Stroke Patients
Stroke rank second among the top causes of death, affecting millions of people in the worldwide. It has been reported that hemiplegia is the most common sequelae after stroke, accounting for about 50%-70% of all sequelae of the disease. About 75% of stroke patients are accompanied by different degrees of …
Post-Stroke Secondary Prevention With Digital Monitoring
Stroke is the second leading cause of death and a major cause of disability worldwide. In 2019, Disability-Adjusted Life-Years (DALYs) related to stroke was estimated to have reached 143 million. Modifiable stroke risk-factors, which include poor lifestyle habits (tobacco, alcohol and illicit drug abuse, dietary patterns at risk, low physical …
Priming Theta Burst Stimulation for Stroke: A Study of Intensity
Objectives: To compare the effects of low intensity priming intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) with those derived from conventional intensity priming iTBS, nonpriming iTBS, and sham stimulation in terms of improving hemiparetic upper limb motor functionality and modulating cortical excitation/inhibition in patients with stroke. Hypothesis to be tested: We hypothesize …
Effectiveness of Isokinetic Exercises in Proprioception for Post-stroke Patients
Somatosensory dysfunction including the sense of movement and position, i.e. proprioception, is observed in approximately 65% of patients after stroke. Loss of muscle strength, especially in the lower extremities, and impaired proprioception lead to significant loss of function in stroke patients. In addition, recent studies have emphasised that sensory information …
