The investigators hypothesize that a myoelectric (EMG) controlled virtual reality (VR) interface allows for effective upper limb motor recovery of stroke patients. EMG control offers the possibility to alter visual feedback according to the recorded muscle activity in real-time. By manipulating the motion of a virtual hand associated with the …
Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and permanent disability worldwide. Loss of upper extremity (UE) function after stroke significantly reduces independence and quality of life. Moreover, weakness in the respiratory muscles negatively affects trunk control and respiratory function, limiting overall functional recovery. In recent years, robot-assisted training …
Many people who have experienced a stroke have deficits in their walking balance. The long-term goal of this research is to develop an exoskeleton that can effectively improve walking balance, thus improving functional mobility.
The goal of this research study is to examine communication between brain and muscle in individuals with stroke and determine if applying non-invasive brain stimulation to different parts of the brain improves this communication and performance on a hand squeezing task. The investigators will fit participants with an electroencephalography (EEG) …
The effects of stroke on the upper extremity are a common and significant cause of long-term disability, with 65% of patients reporting an inability to participate in daily activities with the affected upper extremity after 6 months. Robotic-assisted training (RAT) has been widely used in recent years to improve upper …
To compare the effects of trunk training exercises and lateral truncal tilt balance training on trunk control, balance and activities of daily living in stroke patients.The primary outcome measures used to evaluate the efficacy of each training approach will include the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, assessing mobility and …
Stroke is a leading cause of acquired motor disability and the second most common cause of major cognitive impairment worldwide. In France, approximately 150,000 new cases occur annually, with around 31% affecting individuals of working age, making return to work (RTW) a critical public health issue. Beyond the medical burden, …
The MOTIF-STROKE study is embedded within the BrainSync project, aiming to develop innovative strategies for motor rehabilitation of the upper limb. The primary goal is to construct a high-resolution anatomo-functional disconnection atlas in a cohort of 100 stroke patients, using cutting-edge 3T and 7T MRI. Data acquisition, commencing in Fall …
This study aims to investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on fatigue severity among individuals with chronic stroke. Participants will be randomly assigned to the HIIT group, the moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) group, or the stretching group (active control). Each group will participate in supervised exercise sessions three …
This randomized pilot clinical study aims to investigate the effects of trans-auricular vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) on neuromotor recovery in patients in the subacute phase after stroke. Participants admitted for intensive rehabilitation at ICS Maugeri Centers (Montescano, Pavia, Nervi) will be randomized into four groups receiving either traditional or technological …
