Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the accessibility of beauty products for individuals with upper extremity disabilities. By examining various factors such as packaging design, product applicators, and ease of use, this research aims to identify barriers faced by individuals with upper extremity disabilities or visual deficits when using beauty products. The study seeks to provide insights and recommendations for improving the accessibility of beauty products, ultimately promoting inclusivity and enhancing the overall beauty experience for individuals with disabilities.
Stroke is the first cause of disability worldwide. The motor impairment of the hand is one of the most common sequelae in patients after stroke. Indeed, approximately 60% of patients with diagnosis of stroke suffers from hand sensorimotor impairment. In the last years, new approaches in neurorehabilitation field has been permitted to enhance hand motor recovery. Wearable devices permit to apply sensors to the patient's body for monitoring the kinematic and dynamic characteristics of patient's motion. Moreover, wearable sensors combined with electrodes detecting muscle activation (i.e. surface electromyography - sEMG) permit to provide biofeedback to the patient to improve motor recovery.
The aim of this study is to objectively evaluate the effectiveness of radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (rESWT) and conventional physical therapy program on the gait pattern through a new gait analysis system which encompasses spatiotemporal and kinematic parameters and to correlate the findings with the clinical evaluation.
Background: Although placement of an intra-cerebral catheter remains the gold standard method for measuring intracranial pressure (ICP), there are several limitations to the method. Objectives: The main objective of this study was to compare the correlation and the agreement of the wave morphology between the ICP (standard ICP monitoring) and a new nICP monitor in patients admitted with stroke. Our secondary objective was to estimate the accuracy of four non-invasive methods to assess intracranial hypertension. Methods: We prospectively collected data of adults admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) or ischemic stroke (IS) in whom invasive ICP monitoring placed. Measures had been simultaneously collected from the following non-invasive indices: optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), pulsatility index (PI) using transcranial Doppler (TCD), a 5-point visual scale designed for Computed Tomography (CT) and two parameters (time-to-peak [TTP] and P2/P1 ratio) of a non-invasive ICP wave morphology monitor (Brain4care[B4c]). Intracranial hypertension was defined as an invasively measured ICP > 20 mmHg for at least five minutes.
Adults with stroke-related disability spend more time sedentary than adults without stroke-related disability, which places them at risk for poor cardiovascular health outcomes. Few interventions are designed to reduce post-stroke sedentary time. The purpose of this research is to test whether the teleABLE (Activating Behavior for Lasting Engagement) Intervention is feasible and acceptable to adults within the first 12 months post-stroke. The hypothesis is that teleABLE can be feasibly delivered using videoconferencing within the first 12 months post-stroke. 10 participants will complete assessments and activity monitoring (activPAL micro3) at 0 (baseline) and 8 (post-intervention)-weeks. Participants will complete 12 sessions of the teleABLE intervention. Findings from this study will be used to guide the intervention protocol in the planned next phase of this research.
Recovery of upper limb and hand gestures is fundamental for autonomy restoration after stroke. Innovative technologies are a valid support for the delivery of rehabilitation treatments. Embedding surface electromyographic (sEMG) into wearable devices, allows the customisation of rehabilitation exercises, based on the clinical profile of each patient.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and effectiveness of a lower extremity telerehabilitation protocol with aims to improve lower extremity recovery among community-living stroke survivors across Canada.
The objective of the study is to determine RNA blood biomarker based on 9 genes already identified in experimental studies, whose expression would be significantly increased in patient with ischemic stroke compared to controls.
Retrospective study to assess the incidence of acute complications after thrombectomy for stoke.
The current study has the potential to improve rehabilitation during the subacute phase of a stroke, aiming to reduce the individual's disabilities and risk of falling, enhance health promoting physical activity and independence in ADL.
