Filter by:This is a two phase prospective observational study that aims to validate the use of a motion capture software (Leap Motion) to measure and quantify functional deficits of the hand in stroke patients using a standard battery of exercises. The objectives of this study are: 1. To compare the differences between results of hand kinematic computational analysis in patients with ischemic stroke and healthy subjects. 2. To analyze the relation between hand kinematic computational analysis and clinical scales usually performed to evalutate neurologic deficits in stroke patients. 3. To analyze the relation between hand kinematic computational analysis and stroke lesion on brain MRI. 4. To analyze changes between results of hand kinematic computational analysis in the acute phase of stroke and at three months, and its relation with evolution of neurological evaluation clinical scales, functional clinical scales and quality of life.
The ARIES study is an observational study in which patients with a recent acute ischemic stroke of cryptogenic aetiology are consecutively enrolled in order to perform a extensive cardiologic work-up. The main objective is to study parameters that could predict arrythmias on prolonged monitoring and also echocardiographic parameters of left atrial disfunction that could predict the presence of a hidden atrial fibrilation and recurrent ischemic events in patients with cryptogenic stroke.
The purpose of this study is to tested the effect of combination of a paired associative stimulation of two functional interconnected areas of the cerebral cortex (posterior-parietal cortex and primary motor cortex) with robot-assisted therapy in the recovery of upper limb after stroke.
This trial is a prospective, randomized, multicenter, multinational, blinded, superiority trial. The objective of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of left atrial appendage exclusion (LAAE) for the prevention of ischemic stroke or systemic arterial embolism in subjects undergoing cardiac surgery who have risk factors for atrial fibrillation and ischemic stroke.
REDUCING INFLAMMATION IN ISCHEMIC STROKE WITH COLCHICINE, AND TICAGRELOR IN HIGH-RISK PATIENTS-EXTENDED TREATMENT IN ISCHEMIC STROKE.
The REAl-life study on short-term Dual Antiplatelet treatment in Patients with ischemic stroke or Transient ischemic attack (READAPT) is an observational, multicenter, prospective study involving Italian centers. The study aims at evaluating effectiveness and safety of short-term (21-90 days) dual antiplatelet treatment (DAPT) in secondary prevention of mild-to-moderate ischemic stroke or high-risk TIA.
Stroke is a significant cause of morbidity and disability worldwide. As the population ages, the economic impact of stroke is becoming substantial. In the United Kingdom, the stroke estimated cost is £26 billion a year. A stroke occurs every 5 minutes, which is >100,000 strokes in the United Kingdom each year. The current treatments available are very limited and 80% of acute stroke patients suffer from persistent impaired activities of daily living (ADL) and compromised quality of life (QoL).The brain function recovery involves creating new neural connections. This neuroplasticity could be supported by specific interventions. This study aims to explore a new approach which endeavours to support the restoration of lost function. Previous pre-clinical work from the investigator's research group and others on different models of acquired brain injury, e.g. traumatic brain injury and ischemic stroke showed that an intervention with a specialised multi-nutrient medical food, could improve neurological recovery and protect the nervous tissue after injury. This has led to the design of the present proposal for a feasibility study using this oral nutritional supplement in ischaemic stroke. The investigators aim to recruit adult inpatients, suffering from acute ischemic stroke, divided into two groups. One group receives standard National Health Service (NHS) care + a daily oral nutritional supplement (ONS), while the other group (control group) will be given standard NHS care. The investigators will explore various outcomes, including changes in activities of daily living (ADL), quality of life (QoL), fatigue, cognition, malnutrition, nutrient status and plasma biomarkers relevant to stroke. The primary aim of this pilot study will be to assess the feasibility of this type of intervention in stroke patients, so that the investigators can subsequently plan a large trial, with a series of focused outcomes which will be informed by this pilot trial.
The aim of our study is to therapeutic effect and platelet activity after intravenous laser irradiation of blood for ischemic stroke patient
A study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Renexin CR in patients with Acute Non-cardioembolic Ischemic Stroke
An Exploratory Interventional study to assess the effects of cranioplasty on brain network connectivity, neuropsychological and motor functioning in patients with severe acquired brain injury with pre-, post-cranioplasty and 6 months follow-up assessments.
