Filter by:The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Supernova stent retriever device, developed by Gravity Medical Technology, for treating acute ischemic stroke. The device is used to remove blood clots and restore blood flow to the brain .
The aim of this study is to compare ultrasound-guided perineural injection of the median nerve with classic minimal incision surgical technique for median nerve decompression in patients diagnosed with mild, moderate, and severe carpal tunnel syndrome.
This project will enable optimization of specific carried out by occupationist for older adults discharged from hospital for falls: - on the environmental dimension at the participant's home - on the involvement of the caregiver since they are also involved in the care of the patient - on the recurrence of falls and rehospitalizations in order to improve the quality of life by reassuring the elderly person when traveling - on limiting loss of autonomy and staying at home. The occupational therapist will entrust the caregiver with a support role. The participant will feel more involved in the participant's care (thus reducing the feeling of helplessness). His actions will allow him to strengthen his sense of competence and will prevent him from physical and psychological exhaustion.
Autonomic nervous system diseases can cause abnormalities in the circulatory system, leading to malignant arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death. Standardized, operable, and simplified diagnostic indicators are urgently needed to evaluate autonomic nervous function, particularly cardiac autonomic nervous function. The investigators use HUTT in order to provide data support for cardiac autonomic nervous system evaluation.
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive, painless brain stimulation treatment that uses low-intensity direct electrical currents to stimulate specific parts of the brain. Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) can both facilitate anodic stimulation and inhibit cathodic stimulation specific brain areas since many neurological and psychiatric disorders are connected to hypoactivity or hyperactivity in specific areas of the nervous system. This phenomenon is based on two processes: the reorganization of functional neural circuits and their reconstruction. In light of the studies mentioned above, it is presumed that Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) can be a valuable tool to facilitate the process of neuroplasticity in individuals with chronic neurological diseases and in patients with impaired consciousness following severe brain injury. A previous study demonstrated that a single session of transcranial direct current electrical stimulation could temporarily improve signs of consciousness in patients in a minimally conscious state (MCS)
Over the past twenty years, Prof. Yanick Crow and his team have developed internationally recognized expertise in genetic pathologies affecting the immune and neurological systems. The pathologies studied have a particularly severe impact on patients' quality of life, with a high mortality rate and a significant risk of occurrence in affected families. These pathologies are rare, and very often under-diagnosed. To date, there is virtually no effective curative treatment. Prof. Crow's team operates at the frontier between clinical and research work, and from experience, the team knows that patients and families affected by these serious pathologies are often highly motivated to help research into the pathology that affects them. Initially, Prof. Crow's research focused primarily on the study of the genetic disease Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome (AGS). However, there is an undeniable clinical and pathological overlap between AGS and other forms of disease such as autoimmune systemic lupus erythematosus and many other genetic pathologies - e.g. familial lupus engelure, spondyloenchondromatosis and COPA syndrome. This is why research is being extended to all genetic diseases with immune and neurological dysfunctions.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the investigational REEV SENSE gait tracker to measure gait features in subjects with post-stroke gait impairment. REEV SENSE is intended to be used by trained healthcare professionals as a simple procedure adapted to clinical routine. The reference method for performance comparison will be motion capture.
The aim of GENESIS clinical study is to map the HLA genomic region in the Greek population and evaluate possible correlations with selected underlying diseases.
The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the improvement of fibromyalgia syndrome obtained following active stimulation compared to sham, with diminished functional disability and improved health status using Exopulse Molli suit stimulation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Evaluation of pain, fatigue, mood and quality of life changes observed after active stimulation in comparison to sham. Improvement of fibromyalgia syndrome as per the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) Study subjects will participate in: A randomized sham controlled double-blind trial to demonstrate the improvement of pain, quality of life, fatigue and mood in adult patients with fibromyalgia following a 2-week intervention of "active" versus "sham" Exopulse Mollii suit. A 2-week washout period should be enough to prevent a potential carry over effect. After this phase (phase 1), a second open label phase (phase 2) will be proposed for patients to understand the effects of Exopulse Mollii suit employed for 4 weeks (7 sessions per week) on the studied outcomes.
