Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Collaterals of Atherosclerosis Stroke
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the influence of chronic RIC on collateral status evaluated by DSA in ischemic stroke patients with LAA etiology.
Robotic Rehabilitation Vs Occupational Therapy Chronic Stroke Upper Limb Rehabilitation
The functional recovery of the upper limb represents a critical element in post-stroke rehabilitation; hemiplegic/hemiparetic patients who achieve optimal recovery are a minority, and incomplete recovery has relevant consequences both on functioning and on quality of life of those who survive a stroke. The project aims to assess the effects …
Transitional Care Program to Improve Risk Factors in Stroke Survivors
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether our transitional care program helps stroke survivors better manage their risk factors for stroke to lower the risk of a repeat stroke. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the program help participants meet the targets set by …
Effect of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation on Post-stroke Patients
The subjects will be asked to attend minimum 15 separate sessions, 6 for testing changes in reflex behaviors, 3 for testing changes in the influence of descending motor tracts on spinal motor neurons, 3 for each testing functional movement in response to a trip event and cross-tilt walking adaptation pattern, …
Constraint Induced Movement Therapy and Bilateral Training in Chronic Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, with upper limb spasticity and impaired hand function being common problems in the chronic phase. These impairments significantly affect independence in activities of daily living and overall quality of life. Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) and Bilateral Training (BT) are two widely used …
Effects of Treadmill-Based Gait Training in Patients With Stroke
Hemiplegia is one of the most common sequelae after stroke. Most patients develop thermal asymmetry between the affected and contralateral sides of the body, as well as an asymmetric gait pattern characterized by differences in the duration of gait cycle phases, step length, cadence, and weight distribution between limbs. These …
How Realistic Are Caregivers' Expectations in Patients With Subacute Stroke?
The aim of this study is to evaluate the extent to which the patient's goals and the physical therapist's goals can be achieved after stroke rehabilitation and to compare their expectations in terms of rehabilitation outcomes. Thus, the expected benefit of the study is to contribute to goal setting in …
RAPID AFib Decision Aid for Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the utility of a new electronic patient decision aid for stroke prevention therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the patient decision aid acceptable to both patients and physicians? Does the patient …
Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Treating Post-stroke Dysphagia
The aim of the present project is to use transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (t-VNS) for the treatment of dysphagia in acute stroke patients to improve swallowing function and reduce mortality and disability related to this condition. 30 patients will be randomized into one of the two arms of the …
Movement Amplification Gait Training to Enhance Walking Balance Post-Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of disability in the United States, affecting approximately 795,000 people annually. The Veteran's Health Administration provides over 60,000 outpatient visits for stroke-related care annually at a cost of over $250 million. Among ambulatory people with chronic stroke (PwCS), impaired balance is a common health concern …
