Telerehabilitation for Aphasia (TERRA)
Speech-language therapy is generally found to be helpful in the rehabilitation of aphasia. However, not all patients with aphasia have access to adequate treatment to maximize their recovery. The goal of this project is to compare the efficacy of telerehabilitation or Aphasia Remote Therapy (ART) to the more traditional In-Clinic …
Upper-limb Active Function and Botulinum Toxin A
This study in an observational, prospective and longitudinal study. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of botulinum toxin type A (BTX) injections into the elbow flexors on the reduction of spastic co-contractions (spastic co-contraction index, SCCI) during an active elbow extension in chronic post-stroke patients.TBA injections …
Optimizing Gait Symmetry After Stroke Using Mechanical Constraints and Sensory Feedback
This single-session study aims to evaluate a novel gait training protocol that integrates mechanical constraints and sensory feedback to enhance paretic leg propulsion in individuals post-stroke. The study will include 15 individuals who have experienced a stroke and 15 healthy adults, each aged 20 years or older. Participants will walk …
Mirror vs Virtual Reality Therapy for Upper Extremity Function in Hemiplegic Patients
Upper extremity impairment in hemiplegic patients significantly impacts daily activities and reduces quality of life. Although traditional rehabilitation methods can help, some patients experience limited progress. Recently, modern techniques such as mirror therapy and virtual reality (VR) have emerged, demonstrating promising results in motor skill improvement. This study aims to …
The Efficacy of Additional Motor Training Dosage During the Early Stages Post Stroke on the Upper Extremity Recovery
Intervention abstract Background: Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability, and the second leading cause of death in the western world. Most stroke survivors will suffer from motor and cognitive disturbances for the rest of their life, which negatively affects their normal daily life. Despite the decline in stroke-related …
Effects of Robotic Gloves Along With Task-oriented Mirror Therapy on Motor Functions of Hands in Sub-acute Stroke Patients
This study is randomized control trial and purpose of this study is to find effects of robotic gloves assisted task-oriented mirror therapy in comparison with task-oriented mirror therapy on motor functions of hand in sub-acute stroke patients.
The Effects of Naturalistic Light on Post Stroke Complications Related Brain Areas in Stroke Patients During Admission for Rehabilitation.
Background Light is the most important regulator of circadian rhythm. Naturalistic light, which contains the spectrum of sunlight throughout the day, has been shown to have a positive impact on mental states such as depression and fatigue in stroke and other diseases requiring long-term hospitalization. Depression and fatigue are very …
Neuromodulation Effect of Focused Ultrasound for Motor Recovery in Patients With Stroke
Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) can be used as a non-invasive brain neuromodulation technique. Low-intensity focused ultrasound has been demonstrated to be safe and have neuromodulatory effects on the cerebral cortex in healthy human and animal experiments.This study aims to investigate the effect of tFUS on cortical excitability for motor recovery …
Accelerated rTMS vs. Sham for Stroke Apathy
Apathy is a common set of symptoms seen in many people following a stroke. Apathy occurs when a person has lost motivation, becomes withdrawn, and stops doing things that used to be important to them. Apathy has a large negative impact on a person's quality of life, and can also …
Effects of Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) on Motor Recovery of Lower Extremity in Chronic Stroke Patients
This study aims to evaluate the effects and clinical feasibility of non-invasive brain stimulation protocols, specifically intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation, as part of rehabilitation interventions for motor recovery of lower extremity in the chronic phase after stroke. It also seeks to explore the underlying mechanisms by investigating changes of functional …
