Effectiveness of Enhanced External Counterpulsation for Post-acute Stroke Patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if there benefits combine enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) with the standard post-acute care (PAC) rehabilitation treatment to treat stroke patients.. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the feasibility of combining EECP and PAC? Does EECP combined PAC …
Virtual Reality Software for Patients With Stroke
The goal os this clinical trial is to develop and validate a gamified, fully immersive, and stroke-specific virtual reality software to improve physical disability and quality of life in patients with stroke. The main questions it aims to answer are: To assess the effects of a gamified, fully immersive and …
Playing Piano to Improve Hand Function Early After Stroke
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the feasibility of a 6-week piano playing training intervention in a subacute stroke population. More specifically, the investigators aim to (1) implement and test the feasibility of the intervention in the subacute stroke rehabilitation program; and (2) explore the acceptability of …
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Synchronized with Motor Task Training for Post-Stroke Rehabilitation
The goal of this clinical trials is to investigate the effectiveness of individualized online repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in enhancing upper limb motor rehabilitation during the subacute and chronic phase of stroke. It will also learn about the safety of individualized online rTMS intervention methods. The main questions it …
Aspirational Rehabilitation Coaching for Holistic Health (ARCH): A Pilot Pre-Post Experimental Study
The ARCH programme is a novel, strength-based, dyadic, multicomponent psychosocial intervention that blends together psychoeducation, psychosocial support and self-compassion practices to aid first-time stroke survivors and their family caregivers with their psycho-socio-emotional and spiritual challenges following discharge from in-patient care. A pre-post experimental design with a feasibility and acceptability assessment …
Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training on Stroke Rehabilitation Outcomes
This study is designed to explore the effects of a 4-week protocol of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) at 50% maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) on respiratory function, diaphragm thickness, balance control, exercise capacity, and quality of life in people after stroke. To ascertain the effect of IMT on the relationship between …
Effect of Neural Constraints on Movement in Stroke
This study investigates the effects of Tizanidine on the voluntary movement controls of the arms of participants who have had a stroke and have not had a stroke by measuring medication-induced changes in upper extremity kinematics, pupillometry, and brain activity. Tizanidine is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. …
Interaction Between the Brain Hemispheres - Key to Motor Recovery After Stroke
Rationale: Acute stroke leaves many patients with functional deficits, of which upper extremity motor impairment is one of the most disabling. Evidence from imaging and electrophysiological studies converge on the idea that impaired motor function after stroke is associated with disrupted network activity in the brain. Non-invasive brain stimulation methods, …
Impaired Interlimb Coordination During Locomotion in Individuals With Chronic Stroke: Contributors and Effect on Walking Function
Individuals with chronic stroke have long-term walking problems that limit community engagement and quality of life, lead to secondary disabilities, and increase healthcare costs and burden. These walking issues often persist despite rehabilitation. One novel target for stroke gait rehabilitation is interlimb coordination-the phase-dependent cyclical relation of the legs. Interlimb …
Effects of Cerebrolysin on Language Ability in Non-fluent Aphasia Patients After Stroke: A Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-blinded, Single Center Study
" This study aims to measure changes in language ability after adding cerebrolysin to standard treatment for non-fluent aphasia patients with post-stroke language impairment. The patients are divided into two groups: the experimental group, which receives a combination of standard treatment (speech therapy) and cerebrolysin, and the control group, which …
