Filter by:Over eighty percent of stroke patients experience finger-grasping dysfunction problems, compromising independence in daily life activities and quality of life. In routine training, task-oriented training is usually used for functional training of the hand, which may improve the finger grasping performance after stroke, whereby augmented therapy may lead to a better treatment outcome. Technology-supported training holds opportunities for increasing training intensity. However, most of the hand rehabilitation robots commonly used in the clinic are based on passive training mode and lacks the sensory feedback function of fingers, which is not conducive to patients completing more accurate grasping movements. The force feedback hand rehabilitation robot can make up for the above defects, but its clinical efficacy in stroke patients are not known to date. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness and added value of the force feedback hand rehabilitation robot combined with task-oriented training for stroke patients with hemiplegia.
In our study, we aimed to examine the muscles and tendons of the shoulder region on the plegic side of patients with hemiplegia by elastography and to investigate whether there is a relationship between the course of the disease and the course of the lesions that will occur in the shoulder.
In this study, the effectiveness of vagus nerve stimulation in patients with right and left hemiparesis will be compared with each other and with the sham application.
This study is performed in a controlled randomized, two-period crossover design to test the efficacy of Abdominal drawing-in maneuver (ADIM) exercise compared to conventional physiotherapy in chronic stroke survivors.
This is a device study that will evaluate the effect of an implanted stimulator on improving walking in stroke survivors. There are two phases in the study: 1) Screening - this phase determines if the individual is a good candidate to receive an implanted system, 2) Implantation, controller development, and evaluation - this phase includes installing the device and setting the individual up for home use, creating advanced controllers for walking and evaluating the effect of the device over several months.
This is cross-sectional study. By comparing kinematic analysis between stroke and healthy subjects in various directions, this investigation analyzes the compensatory kinematic movement for reaching task in stroke survivors
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of plyometric training versus strengthening exercise on quadriceps and hamstring muscles and quality of life and selective motor control of lower limb of children with hemiplegia.
High intensity laser therapy (HILT) has been considered as a treatment option for shoulder pain. In randomized controlled studies with high-intensity laser therapy (HILT), there are publications showing its effectiveness in conditions such as shoulder pathologies such as subacromial impigment syndrome and adhesive capsulitis. However, there are few studies in the literature that focus on the effectiveness of HILT, especially in hemiplegic shoulder pain. In this study, we intended to investigate the effectiveness of HILT on pain, disability, function and quality of life in patients with HSP accompanied by PTRCT.
The use of interactive applications associated with position and movement sensors has begun to spread as an option for the reinforcement of physical rehabilitation therapies in patients with congenital or acquired motor disorders as a result of some neurological damage, due to its portability and the relative autonomy granted to the patient. However, the results of its effectiveness and impact continue to be scarce compared to the traditional therapy used for rehabilitation. The aim of this study is to explore possible benefits associated with occupational therapy with video games in patients with unilateral spastic cerebral palsy, comparing them with conventional therapy. A randomized pilot study will be carried out, with a control group. The intervention will consist of the application of a virtual rehabilitation program for the experimental group while the control group will receive only conventional therapy. Before and after the said intervention, standardized tests will be applied to evaluate both motor function and the cognitive performance of the participants.
In Phase 2, Patients in a community-based setting who have had a stroke will be evaluated by rehabilitation professionals and asked to perform a battery of clinical assessments before and after standard of care and robot assisted therapy with Rehab CARES system of simple force-feedback robots that are adapted to deliver single and group therapy.
