Exoskeleton for Balance
Many people who have experienced a stroke have deficits in their walking balance. The long-term goal of this research is to develop an exoskeleton that can effectively improve walking balance, thus improving functional mobility.
Balloon Guide Catheter to Optimize Outcomes in Stroke Thrombectomy of the Internal Carotid Artery
To investigate whether using balloon guide catheter with flow arrest during mechanical thrombectomy, compared to non-flow arrest, improves the rate of first pass expanded Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction score (eTICI 2c-3) reperfusion for acute ischemic stroke due to internal carotid artery occlusion
The Effect of Virtual Reality Therapy on Upper Extremity Functions in Subacute Stroke Patients Receiving Rehabilitation
Stroke ranks second among the leading causes of death worldwide and third among the causes of disability. In stroke patients, motor impairment typically affects facial movements and the upper and lower extremities unilaterally. Upper extremity involvement, in particular, negatively impacts patients' activities of daily living, such as eating and dressing. …
Beyond Observation: Validating the Ecological Relevance of the Ad-AHA Stroke Using Sensor-Based Measures
After a stroke, many people experience difficulty using both hands together in daily life. Most rehabilitation assessments, however, only measure how the affected arm performs in one-handed tasks. This makes it difficult to understand how well people actually use their hands in real-world activities, which are usually bimanual. The Adult …
Kinesiophobia and Balance in Stroke Patients
This is a cross-sectional clinical study planned to include 138 stroke patients receiving inpatient treatment at the Istanbul Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Training and Research Hospital.Data on kinesiophobia (Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale-17) , balance performance (Berg Balance Scale) , balance confidence (Activities-specific Balance Confidence Scale-6) , fear of falling (Falls Efficacy …
Power Exercise for Stroke Recovery: The POWER Pilot Trial (POWER-P)
Weakness is one of the most common consequences of stroke. For the over 750,000 Canadians living with stroke, many daily activities like standing from a chair, walking and balance not only require strength but often efforts in bursts, known as muscle power. Strength training can improve muscle strength and, when …
Comparison of TTE and LTTBT on Trunk Control, Balance and ADL's in Stroke Patients
To compare the effects of trunk training exercises and lateral truncal tilt balance training on trunk control, balance and activities of daily living in stroke patients.The primary outcome measures used to evaluate the efficacy of each training approach will include the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, assessing mobility and …
Modulation of Brain Rhythms in Stroke
The goal of this research study is to examine communication between brain and muscle in individuals with stroke and determine if applying non-invasive brain stimulation to different parts of the brain improves this communication and performance on a hand squeezing task. The investigators will fit participants with an electroencephalography (EEG) …
Effect of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation Combined With Upper Extremity Robot-Assisted Training on Upper Extremity Motor Functions in Stroke Patients
The effects of stroke on the upper extremity are a common and significant cause of long-term disability, with 65% of patients reporting an inability to participate in daily activities with the affected upper extremity after 6 months. Robotic-assisted training (RAT) has been widely used in recent years to improve upper …
Effects of tVNS and mCIMT in Chronic Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide, resulting in significant physical and cognitive impairments. Arm weakness is most common after stroke and its treatment is recognized as an area of considerable need. The functional limitations and disabilities experienced by stroke survivors, particularly in the upper limb have …
