Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the accessibility of beauty products for individuals with upper extremity disabilities. By examining various factors such as packaging design, product applicators, and ease of use, this research aims to identify barriers faced by individuals with upper extremity disabilities or visual deficits when using beauty products. The study seeks to provide insights and recommendations for improving the accessibility of beauty products, ultimately promoting inclusivity and enhancing the overall beauty experience for individuals with disabilities.
The goal of this clinical trial is to confirm the efficacy and feasibility of early rehabilitation combined with virtual reality training in patients following first-time acute stroke. The main questions it aims to answer are: - The impact of virtual reality training on muscle strength; - The impact of virtual reality training on functional recovery; - The impact of virtual reality training on mood state. Researchers will compare the experimental group, which received early rehabilitation combined with VR training, and the comparison group, which received only early rehabilitation, to see if VR training has clinical benefits when provided alongside early rehabilitation during hospitalization.
To determine effects of short-intensity modified constraint-induced movement therapy on hand function in stroke patients.
The investigators continuously collected data from 482 AIS inpatients at the Neurology Department of Hebei General Hospital. Both demographic and clinical data were collected from the study subjects. Different head magnetic resonance imaging sequences were used to assess the subjects' CMBs, white matter lesions, and old lacunar infarcts (LI). Various statistical methods, including the t-test, χ2 test, and logistic regression, were used to analyze the gender heterogeneity of the influencing factors for CMBs in AIS patients.
The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of virtual reality-mediated upper extremity rehabilitation added to the conventional rehabilitation program on upper extremity, quality of life, range of motion and spasticity in patients with stroke.
The mortality of malignant middle cerebral artery infarction (mMCAI) is up to 80%, while current available treatment is limited. The purpose of this study is to explore the feasibility, safety and efficacy of Intracalvaria bone marrow injection of cytoprotective drug Y-3 in mMCAI patients with contradictions of reperfusion therapy or poor reperfusion outcome.
After onset of Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS), every minute of delay to treatment reduces the likelihood of a good clinical outcome. A key delay occurs in the time between completion of computed tomography (CT) angiography of the head and neck and interpretation in the setting of AIS care. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of incorporating Viz.AI software, which via via a machine-learning algorithm performs artificial intelligence-based automated detection of large vessel occlusions (LVO) on CT angiography (CTA) images and alerts the AIS care team (diagnosis and treatment decisions will be based on the clinical evaluation and review of the images by the treating physician, per routine standard of care). The hypothesis is that integration of the software into the AIS care pathway will reduce delays in treatment. A cluster-randomized stepped-wedge trial will be performed across 4 hospitals in the greater Houston area.
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of cervical mobilization on balance and gait parameters in stroke individuals. Twenty-four stroke individuals aged 30-65 years, with a mini mental test score of 24 and above, and with a maximum score of 3 according to the modified rankin scale, were included in this study. Individuals were randomly divided into 2 groups as study (Bobath approach and cervical mobilization n=12) and control group (Bobath approach n=12). Demographic data, gait parameters, balance parameters and craniovertebral angle values of individuals were evaluated with clinical data evaluation form, Spatio-Temporal Gait Analysis (LEGSystm), Portable computerized kinesthetic balance device (SportKAT 550) and photometer, respectivelyThe evaluations were performed 2 times before and after the treatment.
Aim of this study will be the evaluation (by ELISA quantification and quantitative RT-PCR) of circulating biomarkers of damage and regeneration in patients affected by ischemic stroke. The biomarker levels will be measured from the acute event (48h) and in subsequent 4 times (7 days, 30 days, 90 days, 180 days) following hospitalization, up to 6 months after the acute event. These data will then be correlated for all five times with the clinical scales normally used for patient evaluation and will also be associated with MRI-DTI measurements performed in the post-acute (30 days) and post-discharge (180 days) phase.
The purpose of this study (Dual IV thrombolysis Approach (DIVA) study) is to assess a new medical strategy for Medium-vessel-occlusion (MeVO) strokes, based on a second IV thrombolysis with tenecteplase (TNK) for persistent intracranial occlusion on MRI 1-2 hours after standard alteplase infusion. The DIVA-study results were compared with a similar cohort of MeVO strokes patients treated with standard therapy (single IVT with alteplase) during the same timeframe in another stroke unit.
