Filter by:The study will be directed to compare which of whole body vibration (WBV) training and Functional strength training (FST) has better effect on balance in children with hemiparesis
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation strengthening exercises and de-Lorme and Watkins exercises program in stroke patients with upper limb weakness in chronic stroke patients. The randomized central trial will recruit patients according to consecutive sampling into two intervention groups. One group will receive proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation strengthening exercises and other group will receive de-Lorme and Watkins exercises program.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of an isokinetic strength training of knee flexor and extensor muscles on walking performance in hemiparetic patients with knee extension thrust.
The objective of this clinical trial is to measure the effect of Rehabilitation with Virtual Reality or Modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy on hemiparesis in patients with Cerebral Vascular Event. The question to be answered is: What is the effect of different therapeutic modalities supported by Virtual Reality or Modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy compared with usual Physical and Occupational Therapy on motor recovery of paretic limbs in patients with Cerebrovascular Event? The patients will carry out activities of: - Virtual reality or - Movement Restriction-Induction Therapy. The investigators will compare the changes in the functionality of the paretic hemibody with a group undergoing regular physical and occupational therapy, as well as language and treatment-related satisfaction.
After a stroke, it is very common to lose the ability to open the affected hand. Occupational and physical rehabilitation therapy (OT and PT) combined with non-invasive brain stimulation may help a person recover hand movement. The purpose of this study is to compare 3 non-invasive brain stimulation protocols combined with therapy to see if they result in different amounts of recovery of hand movement after a stroke.
This trial aims to investigate whether placebo in isolation (open and hidden) has a specific neural signature in stroke subjects thus providing a novel mechanism to explain placebo effects that can be used to ultimately enhance stroke rehabilitation therapies.
Septic shock is one of the causes of death in ICU and hospital. Refractory shock is the problem which healthcare providers should recognize though it is difficult to handle with. The corticosteroid called hydrocortisone is one of the treatment in refractory septic shock which requires vasopressor to maintain blood pressure. In recovery phase of septic shock and weaning off vasopressor, there is no definite way to taper off hydrocortisone.
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.
The purpose of the study is to validate the use of smart and widespread instruments to detect kinematic, kinetic and spatio-temporal parameters in gait and postural analysis in hemiparetic and healthy individuals. Device as single Microsoft sensor Kinect v2, wearable sensorized clothing and/or smartphone-type devices will be used; it is also planned to analyze and compare such parameters with those obtained through a technique of manual palpatory analysis. Finally the obtained measures will be compared with the corresponding ones obtained with Three-dimensional instrumented gait analysis (3D-GA).
The purpose of this study is to examine the changes in reflex pathways in the paretic ankle plantarflexors in individuals with post-stroke hemiparesis using operant conditioning. We are recruiting 5 individuals with chronic post-stroke hemiparesis with foot drop in the affected leg to participate in the reflex training procedure. The study involves 40 visits with a total study duration of about 4 months.
