Effect of Kinesio Taping Applied to the Suprahyoid Muscles on Swallowing Safety in Patients With Post-Stroke Dysphagia
Dysphagia is defined as a disorder that occurs during the process of food transfer, beginning with oral intake and continuing until it reaches the stomach. The incidence of post-stroke dysphagia has been reported to range between 42% and 75%. Dysphagia can lead to aspiration pneumonia due to food entering the …
Dysphagia Study Using Novel Microphone Device
This study aims to collect swallowing acoustics with a novel non-invasive wearable surface microphone device during routine work-up, videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS), of patients with dysphagia (swallowing trouble). The collected microphone data will be analyzed to find the pattern of abnormal swallowing by machine learning algorithm.
Synergistic Effect of Non-invasive Brain and Spinal Cord Stimulation
The goal of this clinical study is to investigate the potential synergy between non-invasive brain and spinal cord stimulation administered during a cognitive-motor task, in terms of their immediate effects on sensorimotor and cognitive functions after neurological injuries affecting the upper limb (cervical spinal cord injury and stroke). Secondary objectives …
Neurophysiological and Behavioral Study of the Cognitive Deficits Associated With Cerebral Small Vessel Disease in the SHIVA Cohort. SHIVA-CogNeurophys
Cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) is characterized by an alteration of the structure and function of small penetrating brain arteries. Highly prevalent in older individuals from the general population, it represents a leading cause of stroke and a major contributor to cognitive decline and risk of dementia. Better detection and …
Atrial Fibrillation TRIal of Left Atrial Appendage Closure Using Seralene Hemostatic Suture
Atrial fibrillation is a common heart rhythm disorder that increases the risk of stroke. In patients with atrial fibrillation, blood clots most often form in a small structure of the heart called the left atrial appendage. If a blood clot travels from the heart to the brain, it can cause …
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 …
Wireless Nerve Stimulation Device To Enhance Recovery After Stroke
Texas Biomedical Device Center (TxBDC) has developed an innovative strategy to enhance recovery of motor and sensory function after neurological injury termed targeted plasticity therapy (TPT). This technique uses brief pulses of vagus nerve stimulation to engage pro-plasticity neuromodulatory circuits during rehabilitation exercises. Preclinical findings demonstrate that VNS paired with …
Task-Specific Self-Rehabilitation Training (TASSRET) for Improving Functional Mobility in Community-Dwelling Stroke Survivors in a Low-Resource Setting
The goal of this pilot RCT is to evaluate the effectiveness of a Task-specific Self-rehabilitation Training (TASSRET) program and compare the effect of the two formats of the TASSRET (video vs manual) on functional ability (upper extremity fine and gross motor skills, upper extremity manual dexterity and speed, voluntary movement …
Effects of Atalante Exoskeleton on Gait Recovery in Non- or Poorly Ambulatory Patients With Hemiparesis in the Acute/Subacute Phase (Month 1 to 4)
The present clinical investigation - EarlyExo, is an interventional, international, multicentric, prospective, single-blinded randomized controlled trial. This clinical investigation is designed to test the hypothesis that early and intense introduction of walking sessions assisted by the Atalante exoskeleton, in a sample of hemiparetic patients with still non or poor ambulatory …
Virtual Physical Activity Seated Exercise - Phase 2
This study will determine the acceptability of delivering seated exercises online and if seated exercises can improve balance, mobility, quality of life, and cardiometabolic health in those living with a stroke related mobility impairment. Participants will be allocated to either a 10-week seated exercise program or a delayed 2-week Boot …
