Filter by:This is a prospective multicenter, single-arm objective performance criteria trial to assess the efficacy and safety of the the thrombus aspiration catheter.
This is a randomized pilot trial to evaluate the impact of a customizable stroke education app (vs standard of care discharge education) on patient satisfaction and education retention. The impact of the intervention will be assessed 7, 30, and 90 days post-discharge.
Aim is to do a feasibility and refinement trial to assess the safety and comfort of the robotic device and their preliminary effect on muscular activity during the performance of activities of daily living. The study was carried out with 10 stroke participants who had to carry out a series of 10 functional tasks with and without the suit over 3 sessions. The results are encouraging and show the potential of using wearable robotic devices in a clinical setting.
This pilot study tests the merits of a unique research approach, transdiagnostic sampling. For Veterans with similar levels of cognitive impairments cause by different types of brain injuries (stroke or traumatic brain injury), this study examines effects of two cognitive restorative treatments. Instead of using the traditional approach to examine treatment effects strictly by cause of brain injury, the transdiagnostic sampling approach recognizes that cause of injury does not drive treatment responsiveness of recovery.
This study ought to identify the occurence of the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and the pumonary emoblism (PE) in patients undergoing elective primary THA & TKA
The investigators will perform a long term registry based prospective analysis on incidence of major cardiovascular events or death in hypertensive patients with obstructive sleep apnea . Effects of PAP (positive airway pressure) compliance, antihypertensive medication and blood pressure control will be investigated in the study.
To compare the effect of anodal cerebellar Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) vs anodal cerebral tDCS on balance, mobility and cognition in stroke patients in stroke patients
The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of a new rehabilitation technology for paralysis that occurs after stroke or spinal cord injury. The research will jointly use a prototype neurorehabilitation orthosis, in which a robotic device moves a paralyzed arm at the command of a non-invasive brain-computer interface to perform a game life-like task augmented using a virtual-reality display, as well as an electrical stimulation device that activates the spinal cord and/or muscles of the paralyzed arm. Investigators expect that a portion of the patients participating in the study will have an improvement in arm mobility by the end of the study. Participants who express their special written consent will have venous blood tests conducted three times for subsequent analysis of lipid biomarkers, in order to further evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation methods based on biochemical analysis.
The purpose of this study is to assess effects of core stability training on functional ability, balance, gait, motor functions, quality of lite and core muscle thickness of chronic stroke patients.
The relationship between the intestinal microecology and stroke has become a research hotspot in neurology field today. Maintaining the balance of the intestinal microbiota are expected to bring new breakthroughs for prevention and treatment of stroke. In recent years, stroke in young adults has an increasing incidence and a considerable socioeconomic impact because of high disability rate and health-care costs. So there is an urgent need to explore the role and mechanism of intestinal microecology imbalance in stroke, especially in the development and prognosis of stroke in young people. This study aims to use multi-omics technologies, including microbial diversity, metagenomics and metabonomics, to reveal the characteristics of intestinal flora in young stroke patients, identify biomarkers for predicting outcome after stroke and early detection of young people at high risk of stroke, and to further explore the role of gut-brain axis in the pathogenesis of stroke.
