Official title:
Spinal Plasticity to Reduce Hand Impairment After Stroke

Study type | Interventional |
The purpose of the study is to induce plasticity in corticospinal-motoneuronal synapses serving an intrinsic hand muscle of the hemiparetic limb in humans with stroke. Neurologically-intact controls are included to verify that an effect was present in absence of stroke. Outcome measures in controls also provide a reference point that help us to understand the size of the effect and mechanisms mediating the effect in the neurologically-intact system.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Corticospinal Transmission (evoked potentials will be recorded via electromyography.) | Different neural elements will be stimulated and evoked potentials will be recorded via electromyography. | 12 months | |
Secondary | Motor Output | The subject will modulate force by holding a force transducer between the paretic index finger and thumb to control the path of a virtual object through targets displayed on a computer monitor. Subjects will modify force applied to transducer in order to align the path of the object through spatial boundaries of ten targets. All ten targets will appear at once. Ten repetitions of the ten targets (orientation of targets changed slightly each time) will be performed. Performance will be quantified by taking the total actual time the object is overlaid with any part of each target, expressed as a percentage of maximum possible time on target. | 12 months |
