Filter by:The aim of the planned study project is to assess the current situation regarding the treatment of patients with stroke. Specifically, various treatment strategies are to be associated and correlated with clinical endpoints, mortality or functional outcome in order to generate arguments for or against individual aspects of therapy. The focus will be on unresolved treatment approaches in acute therapy (e.g. periprocedural management, such as blood pressure, blood glucose, temperature, or airway management, during recanalizing therapies) as well as in secondary prevention on the stroke unit or intensive care unit, such as starting point, mode, and dosage of antithrombotic therapies.
The aim of this research is to investigate the validity of the Kinect™ sensor in post-stroke patients and in healthy test subjects during analytic and functional movements. Measurements will be compared with the Vicon-camera system (currently seen as the golden standard).
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of recombinant human tissue plasminogen kinase derivatives for injection and alteplase in the treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke within 4.5 hours.
This is a pilot randomised controlled trial investigating a combination of mirror therapy and cross-education training compared to mirror therapy alone for the rehabilitation of upper limb impairment following a stroke. A case study series will be completed in advance of the full randomised controlled trial. The outcome measure assessments will take place at the institution. All intervention therapy sessions will be completed by the participant in their own home with the first introductory session being completed with the lead researcher. The study will be conducted in conjunction with Sligo University Hospital once it has attained ethical approval through the relevant University Hospital Ethics Committee.
This study will determine whether early, comprehensive, rhythm control therapy prevents adverse cardiovascular outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke and atrial fibrillation compared to usual care.
Preliminary evaluation of an obstacle alerting system to enhance the user's independent mobility by improving their confidence to drive and their safety in driving a powered wheelchair.
This trial is to investigate the safety and potential therapeutic efficacy of allogeneic administration of umbilical cord-derived MSCs (UC-MSCs) in combination with standard neurological complications after ischemic stroke treatment in Vietnam.
For this retrospective study, the investigators will collect and analyze data of patients who presented with posterior artery occlusion and underwent mechanical thrombectomy (the type of endovascular stroke treatment) and intravenous thrombolysis (the type of non-endovascular stroke treatment). The electronic health records will be queried for the demographic, medical history, and outcomes data of all patients with posterior cerebral artery occlusion who underwent mechanical thrombectomy, intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), or medical management.
This study aims to (1) test the effect of Family System Care and Theme Care Action Module on resilience, family function, self-efficacy, and quality of life for stroke patients and their families and caregivers; and (2) interview stroke survivors (experimental group) using a semi-structured questionnaire to achieve a mix of qualitative and quantitative methodologies.
The aim of this study was to invastigate the relationship between respiratory functions and respiratory muscle strength with trunk control, functional capacity and functional independence in hemiplegic patients after stroke. In our study, 25 hemiplegic patients were included on a voluntary basis. Pulmonary function test (PFT) for respiratory functions, mouth pressure measurement (MIP: maximal ınspiratory pressure, MEP: maximal expiratory pressure) for respiratory muscle strenght. Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS) for trunk control, and Time Up and Go Test (TUG) for functional capacity and Barthel Index (BI) for functional independence assessment were used.
