Bimanual Motor Skill Learning Through Robotics in Stroke Survivors and Healthy Individuals
To test the capacity of healthy and chronic stroke patients to learn and retain a complex bimanual motor skill, trained on the neurorehabilitation robot REAplan (R) (bimanual version).
Videographic Feedback and Walk Rehabilitation in Post-Cerebrovascular Accident
Cerebrovascular Accident affects the majority of the elderly population and its frequency is constantly increasing. The resulting deficits are numerous and lead in particular to an alteration in the quality of walking and autonomy. Numerous rehabilitation techniques have been described. In practice, correction instructions are often given by the therapist …
Combining MyoCI With Memory Reactivation to Improve Motor Recovery After Stroke
This study will examine the combination of myoelectric computer interface (MyoCI) training with targeted memory reactivation (TMR) in chronic stroke survivors. The study aims to determine whether this training-plus-sleep combination will generalize to improve arm motor function over an extended training protocol in stroke survivors.
A Novel Rehabilitation Approach: Dyadic Strategy Training for Stroke Survivors and Their Caregivers
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of a newly developed dyad-focused strategy training intervention on enhancing participation of stroke survivors and their caregivers. To address this purpose, a single-blinded, parallel-group randomized controlled trial will be implemented to assess the efficacy of the dyad-focused strategy training intervention …
Error-enhanced Learning & Recovery in 2 & 3 Dimensions
This study is being done to see how errors lead to improvement. Specifically, we are evaluating the errors stroke participants make during an upper extremity exercise program when reaching for a target using their affected arm. Once we understand the participant's reaching errors, we plan to create a customized reaching …
Comparing ESWT Doses for Post-Stroke Ankle Spasticity Treatment
Post-stroke spasticity is a common complication affecting the neurological recovery, self-care daily activities and patients' quality of life. Extracorporeal shock waves (ESWT) have been proven therapeutic effects on decreasing spasticity and regaining function. Stroke patients often suffer ankle plantar flexor spasticity with poor ankle movement control, leading to abnormal gait …
Model-informed Patient-specific Rehabilitation Using Robotics and Neuromuscular Modeling
Stroke is the third leading cause of death and the primary cause of long-term disability in the United States, affecting approximately 795,000 people each year. Hemiparesis, or unilateral weakness, is common after stroke and responsible for changes in muscle activation and movement patterns as well as declines in walking speed. …
A Closed Loop Neural Activity Triggered Stroke Rehabilitation Device
The purpose of this research is to determine if two non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, muscle stimulation of the arm and neuro-stimulation through the tongue, can increase the extent of stroke recovery.
Hybrid Robot+FES Stroke Rehablitation
The investigators have developed a novel robot-guided stretching under intelligent control and combine it with active movement training, which helped increase joint ROM, reduce spasticity and joint stiffness, increase muscle force output, and improve locomotion. However, for stroke survivors with sensorimotor impairment, their peripheral muscle may not sufficiently be recruited. …
Cortical Priming to Optimize Gait Rehabilitation in Stroke: a Renewal
Achieving functional ambulation post stroke continues to be a challenge for stroke survivors, clinicians, and researchers. In the effort to enhance outcomes of motor training, cortical priming using brain stimulation has emerged as a promising adjuvant to conventional rehabilitation. This project focuses on the development of a long term gait …
