fNIRS-BCI Neurofeedback in Stroke Rehabilitation
Objectives: 1) To compare the effects of closed-loop brain-computer interface (BCI) driven observational imitation training versus sham BCI open-loop observational imitation training on improving upper limb motor functions in patients with stroke; 2) To investigate whether stroke patients receiving closed-loop training exhibit higher activation levels in the mirror neurons, measured …
Physical Capacity Building for Chronic Stroke
Cardiac rehabilitation is the standard-of-care treatment option for patients with cardiovascular disease and has been shown to improve many aspects critical to patient recovery. Investigators believe that individuals who have had a stroke need to be treated similarly. Investigators will study the effects of a comprehensive modified cardiac rehabilitation program …
An Exploratory Study of a Wearable Robotic Hand Orthosis
Upper limb deficits usually remain in 75% of the stroke survivors despite completing full rehabilitation. This is due to lack of effectiveness of rehabilitation and the degree of support and resources available. In this study, the investigators plan to study the use of assistive technologies in chronic stroke survivors.
Telerehabilitation With Digital Technologies for the Continuum of Care of Stroke Patients
The goal of the pragmatic study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a home-based telerehabilitation protocol for patients with post-stroke disabilities, compared to a home-based educational program. The main question it aims to answer is: Is home-based neuromotor and cognitive rehabilitation using digital tools more effective than a traditional educational …
A Space-expanding Shield in Decompressive Hemicraniectomy for Stroke
Instead of the standard decompressive hemicraniectomy with subsequent cranioplasty a single surgery with the implantation of an individually molded space-expanding shield is investigated in for patients with increased intracranial pressure due to a malignant stroke.
Cranial Nerve Neuromodulation to Improve Arm Function and Brain Plasticity in Stroke
Following a stroke, persistent residual muscle weakness in the upper limb (UL) drastically impacts the individuals' quality of life and level of independence. Training interventions are recommended to promote UL motor recovery, and recent studies have shown that training must be tailored to each individual's recovery potential to maximise training …
Art Therapy and Its Effect on Non-Motor Function Rehabilitation in the Subacute Phase of Stroke Recovery
Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide, with the number of stroke patients steadily increasing due to the aging population. While traditional rehabilitation methods, such as pharmacological treatment, physical therapy, and cognitive therapy, can improve physical function to some extent, many stroke patients still face …
The Effect of Extremely Low-Frequency Magnetic Field on Stroke Patients
A stroke can cause neurological deficits resulting in decreased motor, sensory, and cognitive function, as well as a decline in psychosocial functioning. Early rehabilitation following a stroke incident is of great importance, and interventions should aim for an overall improvement in patient functioning and achieving the highest possible level of …
Optimizing Recruitment to Drive Equitable Research Opportunity in Stroke Rehabilitation Trials in Canada
Stroke is a major health issue in Canada. Stroke affects over 400,000 Canadians, and this number is expected to nearly double by 2038. Research studies in stroke recovery can help us better understand effective rehabilitation treatments and help reduce the burden of stroke. Some groups of people however are commonly …
Non-invasive VNS in Stroke Recovery
To evaluate feasibility and effectiveness of non-invasive VNS to enhance stroke recovery
