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 …
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation + Language Therapy to Treat Mild Aphasia
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with Speech-Language Therapy (SLT) is an effective treatment for mild aphasia in persons with chronic stroke. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Can TMS combined with SLT improve conversational speech and comprehension? …
Use of 4D-ICE in Conjunction With TEE for Left Atrial Appendage Closure
This is a prospective, single center, non-randomized study with two parallel arms intended to study if 4D Intracardiac echocardiography (4D-ICE) (Nuvision, Nuvera TM) will provide better visualization of the anatomical landmarks from the larger imaging volume and provide optimal intra procedural guidance similar to Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) (GE 6VT-D ULTRASOUND …
Instant Message-delivered Brief Internet-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (iCBT) for Post-stroke Depression
Around one third of stroke survivors develop depression at any point of time following the stroke event. Post-stroke depression (PSD) is associated with negative care outcomes including poorer function, longer hospital stays, increased outpatient and inpatient clinic use, and higher mortality rate. In Hong Kong (HK), the prevalence of PSD …
Escitalopram and Language Intervention for Subacute Aphasia
In this project, the investigators will investigate the effects of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), escitalopram, on augmenting language therapy effectiveness, as measured by naming untrained pictures and describing pictures, in individuals with aphasia in the acute and subacute post stroke period (i.e., within three months post stroke).
rTMS Plus CCFES-mediated Functional Task Practice for Severe Stroke
This study is a necessary and important step in the development of a new therapy for upper limb functional recovery in patients with severe motor impairment. It is the first clinical trial of non-invasive brain stimulation (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation or rTMS) delivered to excite the undamaged hemisphere (specifically the …
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.
Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on Brain Organization and Naming in Aphasic Patients.
High-Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD-tDCS) allows to induce, in a non-invasive way, a transient inhibitory or excitatory neuromodulation of a given cerebral region and to obtain a very focused cortical effect. Previous studies using HD-tDCS have shown the effectiveness of this stimulation technique for enhancing language recovery in patients …
StrokeAlarm Trial 2
This open, multicenter, prospective, singel-arm study will evaluate usability and feasibility of a wearable stroke indication system (Stroke Alarm) in patients with recent TIA, recent minor stroke without persistent arm motor deficit, or atrial fibrillation up to 1 month.
Effects of Combined vs. Sequential Attentional Focus Instructions on Upper Extremity Function in Subacute Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, and upper extremity impairments-affecting about 80% of survivors-limit functional reach, grasp, and manipulation more severely than lower limb deficits. Despite partial recovery of walking ability, meaningful functional use of the paretic arm remains limited. Conventional rehabilitation often lacks sufficient intensity, task specificity, …
