Stroke Clinical Trial - Robot-Assisted Rehabilitation in Individuals With

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Stroke has a high rate of morbidity and mortality worldwide. This disease is the third leading cause of death after ischemic heart disease and cancer. Stroke is also the leading cause of disability in adults. It is known that stroke individuals have not only limb restriction, but also respiratory capacity and exercise capacity. It has been shown in the literature that upper extremity functions are directly related to respiratory capacity. Although it is known that upper extremity training has positive effects on respiratory capacity in stroke individuals, more studies are needed to examine the effects of upper extremity robot-assisted rehabilitation on respiratory capacity. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of upper extremity robot-assisted rehabilitation applied in addition to conventional treatment on respiratory parameters, dyspnea, and functional capacity.

Clinical Trial Description

One of the most common complications in stroke patients is pulmonary aspiration and pneumonia, which are associated with respiratory functions being affected. Fluoroscopic examinations of stroke patients showed decreased movement in the diaphragm as well as in other muscles on the affected side. The combination of a decrease in respiratory parameters, weakness in respiratory muscles, and a decrease in diaphragmatic activity can cause dyspnea in individuals even that require minimal effort. The low level of physical activity is accompanied by a decrease in respiratory functions, and the participation of individuals in society decreases. The purpose of stroke rehabilitation is to reduce the complications caused by stroke and to increase the individual's psychological, social, physical, and professional level of independence and functionality to the highest level. Nowadays, stroke rehabilitation can be shaped by a variety of methods. In clinics, robotic rehabilitation is commonly used for stroke patients with the development of the technology. In the literature, studies show the effect of robotic rehabilitation on respiratory parameters, also robot-assisted walking training provides significant improvement in some respiratory parameters and increases aerobic capacity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of upper extremity robot-assisted rehabilitation applied in addition to conventional treatment on respiratory parameters, dyspnea, and functional capacity in individuals with stroke. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
