Stroke Clinical Trial
Official title:
Development of Wearable Stimulation App to Increase Hand Functional Recovery in Patients With Neurologic Movement
The objective of this study is to determine if the acute effect of vibration from a smartwatch on hand function is comparable to the effect of an existing laboratory prototype.
More than 4 million stroke survivors in the U.S. suffer from post-stroke hand disability. As
hands are our primary means of interacting with the world, post-stroke hand impairment
diminishes stroke survivors' abilities for activities of daily living including self-care,
hygiene, employment, and leisure, and lowers independence. Hand impairment is difficult to
treat. Limited resources in rehabilitation services and financial burdens make it impractical
to simply increase rehabilitation service visits within the current healthcare system.
One way to augment hand function recovery is peripheral sensory stimulation. Afferent input
is a powerful driver of change in the motor cortex. Sensory stimulation has been shown to
improve motor recovery in previous studies. In particular, promising preliminary results have
been obtained by using imperceptible random-frequency vibration applied via a watch. However,
the laboratory prototype device for delivering this vibration must be improved in the form
factor for patient adoption.
Therefore, we developed an App that can be installed in smartwatches and control the vibrator
within the smartwatch to deliver vibratory stimulation to the user. The objective of this
study is to determine if the acute effect of vibration from a smartwatch on hand function is
comparable to the effect of an existing laboratory prototype.
