Evaluation of the Prognostic Impact of a Neuro-vascular Examination Associated With Cerebral MRI in the Acute Phase of Infectious Endocarditis
Infectious endocarditis (IE) is a serious condition with an annual incidence of 3 to 10 per 100,000 people. Brain infarctions complicate approximately 20-40% of endocarditis. Brain MRI can detect the presence of recent ischemic lesions and asymptomatic microbleeds. Preoperative brain imaging is part of the recommended assessment in the management …
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation + Language Therapy to Treat Subacute Aphasia
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with modified Constraint Induced Language Therapy (mCILT) is an effective treatment for aphasia when delivered in the subacute stage after stroke. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Can TMS combined with mCILT …
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) With Verb Network Strengthening Treatment (VNeST) in Chronic Aphasia
The purpose of this study is to assess changes in language abilities of participants with chronic, post-stroke aphasia following an 8-week therapy period combined with brain stimulation. The investigators use a stimulation method called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). The investigators cover two electrodes in damp sponges, place them on …
Rise & Shine: Promoting Sleep Quality in Chronic Stroke With Exercise
health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, cognitive impairment, and dementia. After a person suffers a stroke, they often experience difficulties in getting a good night's sleep. Approximately half of stroke survivors have insomnia, or have trouble falling and/or staying asleep. Poor sleep quality among stroke survivors increases the risk …
HD-tDCS for Phonological Impairment in Aphasia
This study will investigate the effects of mild electrical stimulation in conjunction with speech therapy for people with post-stroke aphasia to enhance language recovery.
Virtual Home Visits for Stroke Patients and Their Caregivers
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of virtual home care for stroke patients and their caregivers. The secondary purpose is to evaluate the usability of the application by developing a mobile application for use in virtual home visits. The study will be carried out using …
Neurocognitive Mechanisms of Sentence Production Impairment in Aphasia
The proposed research is relevant to public health because stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability among older adults and communication impairments resulting from stroke have a significant negative impact on quality of life. By seeking to better understand post-stroke aphasia, this project lays the groundwork for development of …
BCI-FES for Upper Limb Rehabilitation in Chronic Stroke
The objective of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of an experimental therapy for motor recovery of the arm after a stroke, which includes the application of a functional electrical stimulation therapy coupled to P-300 based Brain-Computer Interface system (BCI-FES). For this purpose, the investigators will compare two groups, …
Effect of Anomia Rehabilitation Combined With Metacognitive Training in Patients With Chronic Vascular Aphasia
The postulate of this study is that rehabilitation combining linguistic and metacognitive training will result in a significant improvement in language performance correlated with changes in functional cerebral connectivity networks. In addition, it could potentiate the generalisation of effects to verbal and non-verbal communication skills, having a direct impact on …
tACS to Enhance Language Abilities
The goal of this study is to see if transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can be used to enhance language abilities in people with post-stroke aphasia. Participants will receive real and sham tACS in conjunction with various language tests. Researchers will compare the post-stroke aphasia group with aged matched controls …
