A Feasible Smart Upper Limb Rehabilitation Model for Patients With Stroke and Spinal Cord Injuries
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of the developed application and exoskeleton robot devices for home-based training in stroke patients and patients with spinal cord injuries. The application that uses an Internet of Things (IoT) platform to enable remote monitoring of rehabilitation progress by clinical …
Dysphagia Evaluation After Stroke- Effect Oral Neuromuscular Training on Swallowing Dysfunction
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a specific rehabilitation program with an oral device used in stroke patients with persistent oral-and pharyngeal dysphagia.
Effectiveness of the Dynavision Device to Improve Spatial Awareness After Brain Injury
The purpose of this research is to determine the effectiveness of using the Dynavision D2 to improve left neglect in adults with brain injury, and improve performance of ADLs/IADLs. This study will use a randomized control trial at Providence Care Hospital in Kingston Ontario, with clients admitted to the Stroke …
Novel Non-invasive Brain Stimulation Techniques in Neurological Rehabilitation
Paired associative stimulation (PAS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation protocol, where two stimuli (a peripheral and a cortical one, the latter delivered with transcranial magnetic stimulation - TMS) are repeatedly associated to enhance plasticity in the brain. In the present study, a new cross-modal, visuo-motor PAS protocol - called "mirror-PAS"- …
Evidence-Based Robot-Assistant in Neurorehabilitation
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, acceptability, and safety of the therapeutic system E-BRAiN for the treatment of stroke-related impairments.
Biofeedback Gait Training by Target Biomechanical Parameters in the Early Recovery Period of Stroke
Single-blinded controlled clinical trial. Biofeedback training courses based on target biomechanical gait parameters are being studied. For targeted biofeedback training, various biomechanical parameters are used: parameters of the gait cycle, EMG or kinematics of joint movements. The number of sessions is 8-11 for each patient. Clinical gain analysis is carried …
Effect of a Cooling Sensation Flavor on the Swallow Response in Post-stroke Patients With Oropharyngeal Dysphagia
Current oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) treatment in older patients is based on compensatory strategies (fluid thickening and texture modified diets) that improve swallow safety but do not improve the swallowing function. One of these strategies is thickening products, which are used to reduce pharyngeal bolus velocity by increasing viscosity of fluids. …
Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation for Upper Extremity Function
Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (tcES) of the spinal cord has shown great promise in restoring upper extremity function after spinal cord injury (SCI). More recently, the use of invasive, epidural electrical stimulation of the spinal cord has also demonstrated promise in restoring upper extremity function post-stroke. However, the effect of stimulation …
Training Cognition With Neurofeedback After Stroke
Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is a common source of invisible disability. The actual techniques of cognitive remediation have been reported to have only a small effect, justifying the need to foster research in this field. Real-time functional MRI neurofeedack (rt-fMRI NF) is a procedure of brain-machine interface supporting self-regulation of …
TDCS to Improve Post-Stroke Cognitive Impairment
The investigators will conduct a randomized, double-blinded, sham-controlled trial of approximately 60 patients with minor stroke and post-stroke mild cognitive impairment (psMCI). Participants will be individually randomized on enrollment using a random number generator to treatment with anodal tDCS + computerized cognitive treatment (CCT) versus sham + CCT (approximately 30 …
