Clinical Trial Summary

Stroke is a leading and growing cause of long-term adult disability. Up to 80% of stroke patients have impaired manual dexterity reducing their independence, return to work and quality of life. Cognitive impairment is also common after stroke and growing evidence suggests a cognitive-motor interdependence with relevance for motor recovery. Previous studies show increased cognitive-motor interference (measured in dual-task) in stroke patients and that combining motor and cognitive task training (in a dual-task) may improve motor function above that achieved by single-task training. This project addresses post-stroke dexterity impairment and its relation to dual-task interference, i.e., the decrease in motor performance when performing a concurrent cognitive task. The overall goal is to provide a proof-of-concept for a dual-task interference training protocol post-stroke. We aim to establish therapeutic efficacy of dual-task vs single-task dexterity training in chronic stroke patients.Single-task training involves visuomotor finger force tracking and dual-task has an additional cognitive components including visual distraction and working memory. Training will be done 4 days/week over four weeks (total 16 sessions). Each session will include 20 mins of conventional therapy (stretching, functional exercises) followed by 40 mins motor task training (either single or dual task). This pilot randomized clinical trial will include 40 stroke patients (> 6 months after stroke). Repeated clinical and fine-grained motor measurements will be obtained pre and post intervention and at 3 months follow-up.
