Prosody Assessment After Right Hemisphere Stroke
Following a right stroke, more than half of the patients present a communication disorder. These disorders can notably concern prosody. Nevertheless, these remain relatively poorly assessed and characterized. Prosodic alterations in comprehension can result in a disruption of social cognition with potentially important consequences in terms of functional outcome and …
Effect of Visual Retraining After Stroke
This project is intended to collect data using standard clinical tests and psychophysics to quantify the effect of visual cortical damage on the structure of the residual visual system, visual perception, spatial awareness, and brain function. The investigators will also assess the effect of intensive visual retraining on the residual …
Genetic Risk Factor for Heat Stroke
The goal of this observational study is to examine the effect of the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Carrier state on the risk for dehydration and other CF-specific fluid-and-electrolyte disorders in male and female adults. The primary aim of the study is to estimate the risk of electrolyte disorders attributable to the …
The Recovery in Stroke Using PAP Study
The proposed study is a randomized controlled trial among an anicipated 180 participants with acute ischemic stroke and mod/severe OSA diagnosed by ambulatory polysomnography (PSG) comparing PAP treatment with usual care concerning the primary outcome of functional recovery.
Using tDCS in Speech-based Stroke Rehabilitation
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the effect of treatment for acquired speech impairment can be enhanced by combining effective behavioral treatment with non-invasive brain stimulation. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), which delivers low-intensity current to the scalp, and is a safe and well-tolerated approach that poses …
Genotype Guided Antiplatelet Therapy In Ischemic Stroke
A fifth of ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) patients will have recurrent events within the first 3 months [Refs 1-3] despite aggressive medical therapy with antiplatelets and risk factor control. Clopidogrel is one of the mainstays of antiplatelet secondary prevention therapy in patients with ischemic stroke. CYP2C19 loss …
European Blood Pressure Intensive Control After Stroke
Stroke is the third most common cause of death worldwide and the leading cause of disability. High blood pressure is an important risk factor for stroke. Lowering a person's blood pressure reduces the risk of future stroke or heart attack, and current guidelines recommend treatment to a target of <130mmHg …
Hemianopsia Rehabilitation After Stroke or Brain Injury
In patients with hemianopsia following stroke or brain injury, we will determine if stimulating the visual field with images from a PowerPoint slide set can increase the visual field.
Cerebrolysin in Early Stroke Rehabilitation - Tertiary Study
The study evaluates the effect and safety of Cerebrolysin administered during early rehabilitation in patients with moderate neurological impairment after acute ischemic stroke, conducted at the Department of Vascular Neurology and Intensive Neurological Therapy, UMC Ljubljana.
SmartWatch-driven AF Detection in Stroke Patients
Unrecognized atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cause of ischemic stroke. Implantable event monitors (ICM) are the gold standard for continuous heart rhythm monitoring but they have been implemented in very few patients after stroke due to high invasiveness and high costs. In this trial, patients with implanted ICMs (Medtronic …
