NCT ID: NCT06200025 Completed - Stroke, Ischemic Clinical Trials

Virtual Reality in Aphasia Rehabilitation

Start date: October 15, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Virtual reality-based aphasia rehabilitation has been shown to improve the language skills of individuals with aphasia in the chronic period after stroke. However, non-immersive or semi-immersive rehabilitation methods have often been adopted in the studies. Considering the importance of the visual given to the patient for naming, it can be thought that full immersive therapy may be more effective. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cue-based aphasia naming therapy in a fully immersive virtual reality environment on aphasia severity and aphasia-related quality of life and to compare it with standard cue treatments.

NCT ID: NCT06043856 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

Translation and Psychometric Analysis of the Urdu Version of Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale

Start date: December 10, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The leading cause of adult disability globally is stroke. Although stroke is rated as the third major cause of mortality in wealthy nations, it is the second major cause of mortality in developing nations. When creating a questionnaire for use in a different context, a procedure known as "cross-cultural adaptation" takes into account both linguistic (translation) and cultural adaption concerns. Beaten guidelines are standard to develop a questionnaire into a new language, measure it's psychometric properties and culturally adapt into a new population. By Williams, Weinberger, Harris, and Clark in 1999, the SS-QOL was published and verified for the first time. Since the Stroke Specific quality of life (SS-QOL) is meant to be self-administered, no training is necessary. According to one study, stroke victims can be accurately measured using the scale over the phone. The SS-QOL scale may be finished in 10 to 15 minutes. The SS QOL score increases with improved functioning. Cronbach's alpha values varied from satisfactory (alpha = 0.75 for the work/productivity subscale) to outstanding (alpha = 0.89 for self-care) in Williams' et al. (1999a) investigation of the internal consistency of the SS-QOL in 34 stroke patients, indicating that the SS-QOL has a good internal consistency. The present study endeavors to address this gap by translating the Stroke Specific Quality of Life questionnaire into Urdu, enabling a culturally adapted and accessible assessment tool. By assessing the validity of the obtained scores within the Pakistani population, this study aims to establish the reliability and effectiveness of the Urdu version. Consequently, this will serve to bridge the literature gap in stroke-related quality of life assessments among Urdu speakers in Pakistan. In doing so, this research strives to provide valuable insights and a comprehensive tool for clinical setups across diverse settings, urban or rural. By introducing a standardized gold standard test, healthcare professionals can confidently make accurate diagnoses and prognoses for their stroke patients. The Stroke Specific Quality of Life questionnaire, with its 49 self-report items encompassing 12 energy-related domains, is poised to contribute substantially to a more thorough understanding of stroke's impact on the quality of life within the Urdu-speaking population.

Oral Care in Non-Mechanically Ventilated Stroke Patients

Start date: January 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study was conducted to examine the effect of a systematic oral care protocol on bacterial colonization of the oral mucosa in non-mechanically ventilated stroke patients. This experimental study was conducted in Bakirkoy Prof. Dr. Mazhar Osman Research and Training Hospital for Psychiatry, Neurology and Neurosurgery between January -June 2020. The research was carried out with 42 stroke patients who were hospitalized in the intensive care unit but not underwent mechanical ventilation. A standardized oral care protocol was developed and applied to the patients in the experimental group three times a day. The control group underwent non-standardized oral care, which is available in the routine practice of the clinic. Two groups were compared at baseline and at the 5th day of hospital stay in terms of bacterial colonization, oral cavity and complications.
