Improving Social Cognition and Social Behaviour in Various Brain Disorders
Impairments in aspects of social cognition are disorder-transcending: these have been demonstrated in various neurological disorders, such as traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, brain tumours (both low grade glioma's and meningioma's) and multiple sclerosis (MS). Social cognition involves processing of social information, in particular the abilities to perceive social signals, …
Comparison of Therapeutic Effect Between Speech Rehabilitation Program and Speech Therapy in Stroke Patients With Aphasia
Our study will provide precise and intensive speech rehabilitation treatment program to patients with speech disorders after stroke, and compare clinical evaluations with the conventional speech therapy patient group. Clinical evaluation tools will be performed before and after the treatment for all patients K-Western Aphasia Battery for aphasia assessment tools …
Timing Impact of Early vs. Late Cranioplasty on Hemicraniectomy Outcomes
This prospective, randomized study aims to comprehensively evaluate the impact of cranioplasty timing on postoperative complications and long-term functional outcomes following decompressive hemicraniectomy (DHC). The primary endpoint focuses on comparing the rates of various postoperative complications, including infection, seizures, return to the operating room, and the need for ventriculoperitoneal shunting, …
Comparing Digitally and Traditionally Made Ankle Foot Orthoses
The research is being done to compare two methods of creating AFOs: 1. The traditional method, which involves manually creating a mold from a plaster cast of the client's limb. This is time-consuming and labor-intensive; and 2. The newer method uses digital technology, such as 3D scanning and printing, to …
Implementation of an App-based Walking Aid Skills Training Program
Walking aids (WA), such as crutches, canes, and walkers allow individuals to move independently after lower body impairment. Improper WA use may lead to upper body discomfort, pain, or injury. Improper WA use has been associated with increased risk of falls, which may result in traumatic brain injury or even …
Interest of a Musical Intervention on Stress Induced During Botulinum Toxin Injections in Spasticity (MUSIBOT)
Botulinum toxin (BT) injections are a painful treatment frequently used to treat spasticity following central neurological damage (stroke, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, head trauma). Tolerance of injections varies from patient to patient. For most patients, the pain experienced during the injection is a major source of stress. Numerous clinical …
Effects of Left Atrial Appendage Resection and Marshall Ligament Amputation on Clinical Outcome in Patients Undergoing Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass
Surgical occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAAO) is sometimes performed during the cardiac surgery to reduce long-term risk of stroke.A previous study found that LAAO may be associated with increased risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation.New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) after coronary artery bypass graft is related to an increased short-term …
Pragmatic Assessment and Treatment for the Health System
The project goal is to promote a feasible and effective approach to communicative disorders in neurological and psychiatric populations, focused on the pragmatics of language. Pragmatics allows speakers to use and interpret language in context and to engage in successful communication. Pragmatic language disorder is widespread in clinical conditions and …
Bifocal Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation Targeting the Frontoparietal Network in Stroke Patients
Hand and arm function is often significantly impaired in stroke patients, making its recovery a primary goal in rehabilitative treatment. This study investigates the effects of bifocal transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) on the frontoparietal network in stroke patients during the subacute to chronic recovery phase. By using non-invasive brain …
Effect of Kinesiology Taping and Swallowing Exercises on Suprahyoid Muscle Thickness and Swallowing Function in Stroke Patients With Dysphagia
This randomized controlled single-blind study aims to investigate the effect of kinesiology taping combined with resistance exercises on suprahyoid muscle thickness and swallowing function in patients with stroke-related dysphagia. A total of 36 participants will be randomly assigned to an intervention group receiving real kinesiology taping and a control group …
