Immediate Effects of Open and Closed Kinetic Chain Exercises on Upper Extremity in Stroke Patients.
Stroke is a sudden disruption of blood flow to the brain, resulting in physical and mental disabilities. It's a global health issue affecting millions each year, often leading to paralysis, altered muscle tone, and loss of motor control and balance. This study aims to examine the immediate effects of open …
Effect of Neuromuscular Stimulation and Mindfulness Breathing in Patients With Stroke
It is an interventional study in which 60 stroke patients estimated to enroll according to random allocation and divided into two groups. The experimental group will receive neuromuscular stimulation , mindfulness breathing and traditional physiotherapy while the control group will stick to traditional physiotherapy only.
Home-based Respiratory Training on Swallowing in Stroke
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of a home-based respiratory muscle training on swallowing function in patients with chronic stroke. The patients will be included in a experimental or a control group. The patients in the experimental group will receive a home-based respiratory training using respiratory …
Supporting Self-employment in Young Adults With Stroke
This project will investigate the effects of an 8-week theory-driven online/hybrid Self-employment Skill Building Intervention on the rate of self-employment, self-efficacy, life satisfaction, and psychosocial outcomes among working-age stroke survivors.
Identifying Personalized Brain States Predicting Residual Corticospinal Tract Output After Stroke
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) interventions could feasibly strengthen residual corticospinal tract (CST) connections and promote poststroke hand motor recovery. To maximize the effects of such interventions, they must be delivered during brain activity patterns during which TMS best activates the residual CST and enhances its neural transmission. This approach is …
Immersive Virtual Reality Treatment for Unilateral Spatial Neglect
Unilateral Spatial Neglect (USN) is a relatively common neuropsychological syndrome following stroke. It is characterized by difficulties in detecting, orienting and identifying events located in the hemispace contralateral to a brain lesion, unrelated to a primary motor or sensory disorder. Numerous methods have been developed for the rehabilitation of this …
Cognitive-motor Exercise for Stroke Patients in Function, Cognition and Related Brain Changes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a cognitive-motor exercise on dual-task interference during dual-task ankle movement and the corresponding alterations of brain activity.
Effectiveness of Immersive Virtual Reality Combined With Task-Specific Training on Hemiplegic Arm Function Following Stroke: A Single Case Series Study.
The purpose of this research study is to understand the efficacy of using an immersive Virtual Reality (VR) environment, with task-specific training, to encourage arm movement following stroke.
Exercise Primed Stroke Rehabilitation
Stroke is a leading cause of disability in the U.S. and many Veteran stroke survivors live with severe disability. Despite recent advances in rehabilitation treatments many stroke survivors have persistent physical and mental difficulties such as reduced physical and cognitive function and depression. Developing innovative treatments that address these problems …
Effects of Action Observation Therapy Based on Virtual Reality for Upper Extremity Rehabilitation in Stroke
This study aims to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) assessing the effectiveness of combining Action Observation (AO) with Virtual Reality (VR) in improving upper limb function for stroke patients compared to AO therapy alone. Individuals who meet the inclusion criteria will be assigned by lottery into one of two …
