This study aims to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) assessing the effectiveness of combining Action Observation (AO) with Virtual Reality (VR) in improving upper limb function for stroke patients compared to AO therapy alone. Individuals who meet the inclusion criteria will be assigned by lottery into one of two …
The ReHandyBot is a robot for hand rehabilitation after stroke. The aims of this study are (1) to investigate the feasibility of unsupervised therapy with the ReHandyBot with stroke inpatients, first in a rehabilitation clinic and then at participants' home, (2) to evaluate the usability of the ReHandyBot (user interface, …
Stroke is the second leading cause of death in the world population. When not fatal, stroke often results in disability, and secondary health problems affecting not only patients but also their families. Building on emerging preclinical and pilot clinical evidences, RESSTORE will focus on the clinical assessment of regenerative cell …
The aim of the PREHENS-STROKE study is to propose a functional replacement device to restore grip capacities in patients with hemiparesis after stroke, unable to actively open the hand to seize objects. The main objective is to evaluate the impact of the use of a self-controlled prehension neuroprosthesis on the …
This project will investigate effects of a novel theory-driven 6-week virtual Personal Resource Building and Inclusive Volunteering Intervention (PVI) on young stroke survivors' work ability, self-efficacy and psychosocial outcomes. It is hypothesised that participants in the intervention group, compared with the control group, will demonstrate the outcomes below at immediately …
To compare the effect of constraint induced movement therapy (CIMT) vs. treadmill training only on walking function in individuals post-stroke, a 6 week, single-blind, randomized training study will be conducted with three assessments of gait to determine the training effect. Subjects will be randomized to either the CIMT or treadmill …
Going back home following a stroke is a key step for the patient and his or her relatives. Due to the brutality of stroke and increasingly shorter in-hospital lengths of stay, patients and their families must adapt quickly to the patient's new health functioning and the new caregiving and support …
Hemiparesis is a common motor disorder after a stroke. The majority of patients do not recover functional use of their paretic upper limb. The use of mirror therapy allows the activation of the mirror neurons involved to stimulate brain plasticity after brain damage.The IVS (Intensive Visual Stimulation) device allows an …
To evaluate whether NESA microcurrents can be used as an effective treatment for various sequelae present in stroke patients, specifically in the treatment of spasticity, balance, pain; and whether it affects quality of life, performance of activities of daily living and quality of sleep.
This is a single-blind randomized comparative efficacy study involving 54-72 participants with chronic stroke. Participants will be randomized into proximal priority robotic group or distal priority robotic group and receive 18 intervention sessions (90 min/d, 3 d/wk for 6 weeks). The Fugl-Meyer Assessment Upper Extremity subscale, Medical Research Council Scale, …
