Filter by:The main goal will be to evaluate the effect of improving the quality of movement of the upper limb (using an evaluation exercise in the software of the Armeo Spring device) on the development of the quality of life after stroke using a standardized generic and specific questionnaire. The secondary outcome will be to evaluate changes in self-sufficiency using a test of daily activities modified by the Frenchay test of daily activities.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of levofloxacin combined with intravenous thrombolysis in treating acute ischemic stroke
Cerebrovascular accident is the 2nd leading cause of death and the leading cause of disability in the world. There are brakes and levers of medication adherence in the context of secondary prevention treatment in stroke.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of aerobic exercise and BDNF on patients with ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke during a computerized cognitive training. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does a moderate intensity aerobic exercise, prior to a cognitive training, allow a better performance? 2. Is it possible to exploit the timing of rehabilitation interventions to obtain greater effects? Participants will be divided in 2 groups. The experimental group will first perform 20 minutes of pedaling as a moderate intensity aerobic exercise. It will then participate in one-hour cognitive training sessions, with the aim of training attentional, working memory and executive functions. The control group will carry out the same interventions but in reverse order. The researchers will compare the results of the cognitive training in the two groups to verify if the order of the interventions influences the results themselves.
The acute management of stroke patients requires a fast and efficient screening imaging modality. The primary modalities used to select patients for endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) are magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT/MR perfusion. The investigators prospectively assessed MRI and CTP concordance/discordance and correlated the imaging on both with EVT treatment decisions and clinical outcomes to verify the validity of MRI (FVH-DWI mismatch) for the preoperative assessment of EVT in patients with an extended time window (6h to 24h).
The INCOGNITO Pilot Trial is a single centre pilot prospective randomized open-label blinded endpoint (PROBE) trial to assess the feasibility of a full-scale randomized trial to determine whether an occult cancer screening strategy of FDG PET/CT in addition to usual care increases the number of occult cancers diagnosed after screening compared to usual care cancer screening alone in patients with cryptogenic stroke.
Post stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) refers to the attainment of cognitive impairment after the clinical event of stroke A range of syndromes that impede diagnostic criteria. Epidemiologically, PSCI is one of the common complications in stroke patients
In patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to large vessel occlusion, the role of intravenous adjunctive medications, such as tirofiban, or alteplase before endovascular thrombectomy has not been well investigated. This trial aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous tirofiban versus alteplase for acute ischemic stroke patients with large vessel occlusion piror to endovascular thrombectomy.
This study will determine the acceptability of delivering seated exercises online and if seated exercises can improve balance, mobility, quality of life, and cardiometabolic health in those living with a stroke related mobility impairment. Participants will be allocated to either a 10-week seated exercise program or a delayed 2-week Boot Camp program. All seated exercises sessions and assessments will be conducted virtually.
The aim of the study was to establish tenecteplase thrombolysis database and to investigate the effectiveness and safety of rhTNK-tPA in acute ischemic stroke patients.
