Filter by:After a stroke, individuals present with motor and/or cognitive impairments. These impairments limit activity, restrict participation and affect quality of life. Therefore, rehabilitation programs are provided from the earliest days. However, an important proportion of patients do not achieve the recommended amount of rehabilitation therapy (even in institutional systems). In fact, patients do not always have access to healthcare systems. Moreover, hospital resources and healthcare systems are often limited (especially in poor countries) which has led to the development of new cost-effective rehabilitation methods such as self-rehabilitation and tele-rehabilitation. This study aims : 1. to develop and validate relevant self-assessments tools in virtual reality 2. to propose auto-adaptative virtual reality-based therapies based on the link between motor and cognitive functions.
Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting up tp 30% will develop postoperative right ventricle dysfunction. Its imperative for the physician to fully understand the severity of this complication in order to perform an early diagnosis and carry out the appropriate treatment. Aim: Investigate the correlation between echocardiographic measurements and hemodynamic changes at different time points in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery Hypothesis: 1. Weak correlation between echocardiographic measurements and hemodynamic changes during coronary artery bypass graft surgery 2. Echocardiographic measurements would change across different time points during surgery independent of hemodynamic values.
The INSPIRE study is interventional, European, prospective, open, multicentric, each patient being his/her own control. It is conducted to assess the safety and performance of the Atalante exoskeleton system in patients presenting an hemiplegia due to cerebrovascular accident. The primary endpoint is defined by the reported adverse events. The study will include 40 patients and takes place in six rehabilitation centers (4 in France, 1 in Luxembourg, 1 in Belgium).
The aim of the study is to collect and analyze specimen from ischemic stroke patients undergoing thrombectomy procedures and from patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery for intracranial hematoma evacuation.
A Phase II, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel group study with patients experiencing a large vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke who are selected for endovascular revascularization. Participants will be given a 48 h infusion of either 0.5 mL/kg/h RNS60 (up to a maximum of 60 mL/h), 1 mL/kg/h RNS60 (up to a maximum of 120 mL/h), or 1 mL/kg/h (up to a maximum of 120 mL/h) placebo (normal saline) starting within 30 minutes of consent after confirmation of candidacy for endovascular thrombectomy.
Postural and balance disorders are common in neurological disorders. They are often associated with reduced mobility and fear of falling, which strongly limit independent activities of daily living (ADL), compromise the quality of life and reduce social participation. Here the investigators apply an existing software solution to: 1) obtain biomarkers of gait deficits in 5 neurological conditions, 2) develop an automatic procedure supporting clinicians in the early identification of patients at high risk of falling as to tailor rehabilitation treatment; 3) longitudinally assess these patients to test the efficacy of rehabilitation. High-density electroencephalography (EEG), and inertial sensors located at lower limbs and at upper body levels will be used to extract the most appropriate indexes during motor tasks. The ultimate goal is to develop cost-effective treatment procedures to prevent recurrent falls and fall-related injuries and favour the reintegration of the patient into everyday activities. The first hypothesis of this study is that clinical professionals (e.g., medical doctors and rehabilitative staff) would strongly benefit from the possibility to rely on quantitative, reliable and reproducible information about patients motor deficits. This piece of information can be nowadays readily available through miniaturized wearable technology and its information content can be effectively conveyed thanks to ad hoc software solution, like the A.r.i.s.e. software. The second hypothesis of the present study is that early identification of patients at high risk of dependence and the subsequent application of personalized treatment would allow for cost-effective treatment procedures to favor the autonomy into everyday activities. The results of this project could represent a valuable support in the clinical reasoning and decision-making process.
The purpose of this clinical pilot study is to evaluate the effects of the MR-010 on tolerability, biomechanics and walking speed in the acute stroke care setting in addition to its impact on length of stay.
Stroke is the most common neurological disease leaving one third dead and one third with permanent impairment despite best medical treatment. The aim of the present study is to investigate why patients differ in how they benefit from neurorehabilitation by collecting clinical, electrophysiological, imaging and laboratory data in the acute phase of stroke as well as later on during rehabilitation and after 90 days. Following a closed-loop approach the data is analyzed by a machine learning algorithm to create a personalized neurorehabilitation strategy.
The study will investigate the potential effect of a supplement of maltodextrin and added dietary carbohydrates on the level of function in patients with apoplexia. The study has an intervention group and a control group. The study is randomized, but not blinded. The primary outcome is level of function measured with Barthel-100. Besides the primary outcome there are several secondary outcomes (see detailed description). All patients are recruited from Rigshospitalet, Glostrup.
This study will use evaluate a hand therapy device training isolated finger control with engaging video gaming technology to facilitate hand and digit recovery in patients with acute stroke and cervical spinal cord injury. This study will randomize patients to either standard rehabilitation care with added study-related motor training or standard rehabilitation care alone.
