Filter by:This study aims to explore if the LSVT BIG® - a motor learning based treatment program designed for rehabilitation of people with Parkinson's disease could be beneficial for chronic stroke rehabilitation. A single-case experimental design with two adult participants, will be monitored for performance on self-selected goals before, during and after participating in the treatment program.
The present study aims at investigating (i) the feasibility in chronic stroke of using a dedicated virtual reality (VR) based system that embeds real-time 3D motion capture and embodied visual feedback to deliver functional exercises designed for training of impaired upper limb motor skills, (ii) whether chronic stroke survivors improve in functional outcomes in the upper limb when exposed to intensive VR-based therapy, and (iii) safety and tolerance to such a technology. The investigators hypothesize that intensive VR-based rehabilitation may lead to high rehabilitation doses and functional improvement in chronic stroke.
The purpose of this study was to compare the treatment effects of home-based or clinic-based bilateral training with and without mirror feedback programon on physiological markers, sensorimotor, cognition, daily functions, and participation among patients with chronic stroke.
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial study to provide preliminary evidence of efficacy of exercise training or a complex mental and social activities program for improving cognitive function in older adults with chronic stroke, compared with a stretch and relaxation program.
In the study we want to prove whether the subcutaneous application of granulocyte-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and erythropoetin (EPO) influence associative learning and/or motor skills of patients, who suffer from chronic stroke or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The study hypothesis is that G-CSF and EPO improve associative learning and/or motor skills.
