Falls in daily life are a serious risk for people with stroke. A new type of balance training, called reactive balance training (RBT). may help to reduce this risk of falling. In some previous studies participants improved their balance reactions a lot after RBT, whereas others did not improve at …
The proposed research is relevant to public health because stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability among older adults and communication impairments resulting from stroke have a significant negative impact on quality of life. By seeking to better understand post-stroke aphasia, this project lays the groundwork for development of …
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with Speech-Language Therapy (SLT) is an effective treatment for mild aphasia in persons with chronic stroke. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Can TMS combined with SLT improve conversational speech and comprehension? …
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with modified Constraint Induced Language Therapy (mCILT) is an effective treatment for aphasia when delivered in the subacute stage after stroke. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Can TMS combined with mCILT …
health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, cognitive impairment, and dementia. After a person suffers a stroke, they often experience difficulties in getting a good night's sleep. Approximately half of stroke survivors have insomnia, or have trouble falling and/or staying asleep. Poor sleep quality among stroke survivors increases the risk …
The goal of this study is to see if transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can be used to enhance language abilities in people with post-stroke aphasia. Participants will receive real and sham tACS in conjunction with various language tests. Researchers will compare the post-stroke aphasia group with aged matched controls …
Aphasia is a language disorder caused by stroke and other acquired brain injuries that affects over two million people in the United States and which interferes with life participation and quality of life. Anomia (i.e., word- finding difficulty) is a primary frustration for people with aphasia. Picture-based naming treatments for …
Clinical Trial Title A Multicenter, Single-Blind, Prospective, Randomized, Exploratory Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Digital Therapeutic Device 'Zenicom' for Improving Aphasia in Patients with Subacute Stroke Clinical Trial Objectives To evaluate the efficacy of the digital therapeutic device Zenicom. To evaluate the safety of the …
Each year, 7.8 million people worldwide experience an ischemic stroke, often caused by atrial fibrillation (AF). AF is a major contributor to severe, disabling, and deadly strokes. About 20% to 30% of ischemic stroke patients have AF before their stroke. Of the remaining 70% to 80% without known arrhythmias, up …
Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, and upper extremity impairments-affecting about 80% of survivors-limit functional reach, grasp, and manipulation more severely than lower limb deficits. Despite partial recovery of walking ability, meaningful functional use of the paretic arm remains limited. Conventional rehabilitation often lacks sufficient intensity, task specificity, …
