The Links Between Executive and Linguistic Processes and Their Lesional Determinants From a Verbal Fluency Task
Verbal fluency test require to produce as much words as possible in one or two minutes. This test is highly sensitive to main brain diseases and are therefore widely used in clinical routine for diagnostic purpose. The verbal fluency task requires several cognitive processes including executive and linguistic processes for …
Spatial-Motor Stroke-Rehab Study
The purpose of this study is to understand how prism adaptation training with and without electrical stimulation changes visuospatial behavior, motor system neurophysiology, and walking dysfunction.
Neurofeedback Intervention for Reading Deficits in Subacute Stroke
The overall goal of this project is to advance a biologically-based approach to treatment of reading disorders after stroke, which will expand the limits of cognitive rehabilitation. Using a novel brain imaging technique, called real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) neurofeedback combined with right hand motor imagery, this project will …
Acu-TENS to Improve the Sleep Quality in People With Stroke
Post-stroke sleep disorder and motor/cognitive dysfunction are common complications that affect the quality of life of older patients. The proposed study investigates the effects of an acupuncture-like method applied to six bilateral acupoints on sleep quality, motor function and cognition in older adults with chronic stroke. The study will be …
Use of Sensory Substitution to Improve Arm Control After Stroke
Supplementing or augmenting sensory information to those who have lost proprioception after stroke could help improve functional control of the arm. Thirty subjects will be recruited to a single site to evaluate the ability of supplemental kinesthetic feedback (a form of vibrotactile stimulation) to improve motor function. Participants will be …
Comparison of Effects of Mirror Therapy Combined With Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation or Binaural Beats Stimulation on Cortical Excitability, Heart Rate Variability and Lower Limb Motor Function in Patients With Stroke
This study aims to compare the effects of mirror therapy combined with either neuromuscular electrical stimulation or binaural beat stimulation on post-stroke lower limb motor function recovery. The study also explores the relationship between patients' cortical excitability and motor function improvement.
Effectiveness of the RISE Intervention
Study aim: To determine the effectiveness of the RISE intervention on reducing sedentary behaviour after discharge from acute hospital care in community dwelling people with a first-ever stroke, who have a sedentary movement behavioural pattern (so called 'sedentary prolongers' and 'sedentary movers') in comparison to usual care, at the end …
Comparison of the Efficacy of Ultrasound Guided vs Non-guided Suprascapular Nerve Block Treatment in Stroke Patients
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided and non-guided suprascapular nerve block in the treatment of patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain, which is one of the most common post-stroke complications.
Reactive Balance Training for Fall Prevention
The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate and compare the effect of three different perturbation based training devices on the reactive balance control among healthy young adults, healthy older adults, and neurologically impaired stroke individuals. Furthermore, the project aims to determine the feasibility and tolerability of 30-minutes of …
FlexWave Trial: Efficacy of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy in Post-Stroke Upper Limb Spasticity
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) has emerged as an effective therapeutic intervention for addressing post-stroke limb spasticity. This research aims to explore the therapeutic implications of focused ESWT for wrist and finger flexor muscles in patients suffering from post-stroke upper limb spasticity.
