Targeted TDCS to Enhance Speech-Language Treatment Outcome in Persons With Chronic Post-Stroke Aphasia.
62 patients who are one year post stroke and have Aphasia as a result of that stroke will be recruited. Participants will have 4 assessment sessions and 15 treatment sessions. The TDCS will be to right Inferior Frontal Gyrus (IFG) (25 active, 25 sham) for 15 days. A combined semantic …
A Trial of Pharmacist Management of Oral Anticoagulation THerapy Versus Enhanced Usual CARe in the communitY for AF
This is a prospective, open-label, cluster-randomized controlled trial of 400 participants (aged 60 years or older, with additional stroke risk factors and 'actionable' undertreated AF) from a total of 40 retail and outpatient community pharmacies. Participants will be randomized (by pharmacy) to either to an intervention arm of pharmacist-led OAC …
taVNS Paired With Motor Training for Upper-extremity Rehabilitation in Stroke Patients
Background: Recently, there has been increasing attention on the application of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) in ischemic stroke. This innovative technique involves non-invasive electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve. A controlled study by Dawson et al. (2021), conducted using a randomized, double-blind approach, has demonstrated that vagus nerve …
Use of 4D-ICE in Conjunction With TEE for Left Atrial Appendage Closure
This is a prospective, single center, non-randomized study with two parallel arms intended to study if 4D Intracardiac echocardiography (4D-ICE) (Nuvision, Nuvera TM) will provide better visualization of the anatomical landmarks from the larger imaging volume and provide optimal intra procedural guidance similar to Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) (GE 6VT-D ULTRASOUND …
Instant Message-delivered Brief Internet-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (iCBT) for Post-stroke Depression
Around one third of stroke survivors develop depression at any point of time following the stroke event. Post-stroke depression (PSD) is associated with negative care outcomes including poorer function, longer hospital stays, increased outpatient and inpatient clinic use, and higher mortality rate. In Hong Kong (HK), the prevalence of PSD …
Escitalopram and Language Intervention for Subacute Aphasia
In this project, the investigators will investigate the effects of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), escitalopram, on augmenting language therapy effectiveness, as measured by naming untrained pictures and describing pictures, in individuals with aphasia in the acute and subacute post stroke period (i.e., within three months post stroke).
rTMS Plus CCFES-mediated Functional Task Practice for Severe Stroke
This study is a necessary and important step in the development of a new therapy for upper limb functional recovery in patients with severe motor impairment. It is the first clinical trial of non-invasive brain stimulation (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation or rTMS) delivered to excite the undamaged hemisphere (specifically the …
pBFS-guided Multi-target cTBS for Aphasia After Stroke
In this study, a randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled trial was employed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of personalized brain functional sectors (pBFS) technology-guided continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) on the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) combined with the superior temporal gyrus (STG) and the superior frontal gyrus (SFG) for language function …
Sensory-Motor Integration for Speech Rehabilitation in Patients With Post-stroke Aphasia
SEMO is a multidisciplinary project (language sciences, cognitive psychology and neuropsychology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, neurology, speech-language pathology, functional neuroimaging and engineering sciences) that aims first, to test and develop a novel speech rehabilitation program designed for patients with non-fluent aphasia and, second, to better describe neural reorganization after successful …
Evaluation of the Prognostic Impact of a Neuro-vascular Examination Associated With Cerebral MRI in the Acute Phase of Infectious Endocarditis
Infectious endocarditis (IE) is a serious condition with an annual incidence of 3 to 10 per 100,000 people. Brain infarctions complicate approximately 20-40% of endocarditis. Brain MRI can detect the presence of recent ischemic lesions and asymptomatic microbleeds. Preoperative brain imaging is part of the recommended assessment in the management …
