Filter by:The study authors aim to form a collection of video-clinical data in a pragmatic situation to enable the development of relevant AI algorithms (for both hetero- and self-diagnosis modes). The aim is to optimize management through early diagnosis (self- and hetero-diagnosis) and thus to reduce sequelae disability. The study authors hypothesize that some stroke patients will be able to successfully perform a self-test consisting of a few exercises dictated by an application on a smartphone or tablet and recorded on video.
Stroke is sudden disruption in central nervous system function due to disturbance of the blood flow circulation in the brain. Cerebrovascular accident (CVA), is the second most leading cause of mortality (5.5 million cases yearly). Its occurrence remains high, with 13.7 million annual incident cases globally. Ischemic strokes are more common with a prevalence ratio of 76-119 per 100,000 per year worldwide ). Stroke is a neurological disease that decrease sensorimotor functions by causing irreversible impairments to the nervous system due to cerebral vascular problems . Patients with balance and activity disturbance are indicated by reduce in body functions. It is very essential for CVA patients to improve balance stability and muscle power for recovery and for normal activities ). Balance is an essential factor for independent living. It is maintained by adjusting COG (Center of Gravity) over the BOS (Base of Support). These adjustments are done through sensational inputs from the vestibular, visual and somatosensory system and are maintained by brain.
The aim of our study is to investigate the effects of the robotic hand exoskeleton, on the spasticity, motor control skills, level of daily living activity, quality of life and functional independence of stroke patients.
It will be a randomized control trial with 112 patients which will be divided into two groups of 56 patients in each group. Participants will recruit through convenient sampling techniques. Outcome measures are range of motion and spasticity. The protocol was implemented three days per week for eight consecutive weeks. Data will be collected at baseline and 8 th week after intervention.
In this study, a randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled trial was employed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of personalized brain functional sectors (pBFS) technology-guided continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) on the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) combined with the superior temporal gyrus (STG) and the superior frontal gyrus (SFG) for language function recovery in post-stroke aphasic patients.
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safeness of personalized brain functional sectors (pBFS) technology-guided continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) on the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) combined with the superior temporal gyrus (STG) for language function recovery in post-stroke aphasic patients.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and feasibility of intra-arterial albumin infusion for patients with acute ischemic stroke after successful thrombectomy and to further explore the optimal dose of albumin through the implementation of a 3 + 3 dose-escalation design.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of redasemtide in adult participants with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
Stroke is a leading cause of disability worldwide. It has a negative impact on the cognitive and sensorimotor functions. Motor recovery becomes essential in rehabilitation phase to make the patient independent in activities of daily living along with improved lower extremity function, balance and gait. Studies show that both EMG Biofeedback therapy and Bobath therapy is effective in improving lower extremity function. Out of those studies, to the best of the investigators knowledge, no study has been conducted to find out the efficacy of EMG Biofeedback therapy along with Bobath therapy on lower extremity functions, balance and gait in stroke patients. Therefore the purpose of the study is to find out the comparative efficacy of EMG Biofeedback therapy along with Bobath therapy and Bobath therapy alone on lower extremity functions, balance and gait in patients with stroke.
The proposed trial aims to assess the effectiveness of Cognitive-behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) based ecological momentary intervention (EMI) for reducing insomnia symptoms among stroke caregivers.
