Filter by:The INSPIRE study is interventional, European, prospective, open, multicentric, each patient being his/her own control. It is conducted to assess the safety and performance of the Atalante exoskeleton system in patients presenting an hemiplegia due to cerebrovascular accident. The primary endpoint is defined by the reported adverse events. The study will include 40 patients and takes place in six rehabilitation centers (4 in France, 1 in Luxembourg, 1 in Belgium).
Stroke is the second leading cause of death, accounting for 11.13 % of total deaths, and the main cause of disability worldwide. The major type of stroke is ischemic, which occurs in about 87% of all stroke cases Stroke has different risk factors, which can be grouped into modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors. Major risk factors for stroke include age, history of cerebrovascular event, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, metabolic syndrome, diet, nutrition, and genetic risk factors. Many new technique used for rehabilitation after stroke includes Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy for Arm or Leg Paralysis, Mirror Therapy for Hand Recovery, Harness the Relentless Force etc. Segmental muscle vibration (SMV) is also a new technique and effective to decrease the hyper-toned muscles spasticity but still less work done on it. SMV with different frequencies have different effects for both flaccid and spastic patients of all 3 stages of stroke. In our study we will work with 60hz and 120hz frequencies to reduce the spasticity of upper limb and improves their functional level.
The SPIRIT study is interventional, national, prospective, open, bicentric each patient being his/her own control. It is conducted to assess the safety and performance of the Atalante exoskeleton system in patients presenting a non-traumatic acute-subacute hemiplegia. The primary endpoint is defined by the patient's ability to perform the 10 MWT with the Atalante system. The study will include 16 patients and takes place in two french rehabilitation centers.
Stroke is the third common cause of adult disability in dveloped countries. Early identification of the potential for motor recovery is important to avoid 'learned disuse' and to initiate appropriate therapy with achievable goals. The current cohort study focuses on those patients with SAFE <8 and using motor evoked potentials (MEPs) to improve on prognostication of upper limb motor recovery among subacute stroke patients in a local stroke population.
