NCT ID: NCT06069765 Not yet recruiting - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Trunk and Upper Extremities Program Effect in Decreasing Compensation Patterns in Unilateral Cerebral Palsy Children

TUPEX
Start date: September 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a trunk and upper extremities exercise program. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether the program decreases compensation patterns in unilateral cerebral palsy children Whether the program decreases pain in unilateral cerebral palsy children Whether the program improves bimanual ability in unilateral cerebral palsy children Participants will undertake and 8-week program exercise at home If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare with the control group to see if this program decreases compensation patterns.

NCT ID: NCT05923164 Not yet recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Reliability And Validity Study Of "The Evaluation Tool For Myofascial Adhesions In Patients After Breast Cancer" In Turkish Language

MAP-BC
Start date: August 30, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of this observational study is to translate the MAP-BC Evaluation Tool into Turkish by adapting it to Turkish society and to conduct a validity and reliability study in women who have received breast cancer treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Are the same researcher's MAP-BC Evaluation Tool results similar at intervals to detect myofascial adhesions in breast cancer patients in Turkish population? - Are the different researchers' MAP-BC Evaluation Tool results similar to detect myofascial adhesions in breast cancer patients in Turkish population? - After comparing the results of Turkish version of both The Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale Observer Subscale and MAP-BC Evaluation Tool, is there a sufficient correlation between them?

NCT ID: NCT05456451 Not yet recruiting - Parkinson Disease Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Noninvasive Vagus Stimulation for Upper Extremity in Parkinson's Disease

Start date: July 25, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Vagus nerve stimulation in the treatment of PD is a non-pharmacological intervention with the potential to improve gait, cognition, fatigue, and autonomic functions, but more evidence is needed for VSS in the treatment of PD. The potential mechanisms of VSS in the improvement seen in PD are explained by increased cholinergic transmission, decreased neuroinflammation, and enhanced NE release. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effects of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation to be applied to patients with Parkinson's disease on tremor and vagus nerve activity in patients. The tremor and autonomic activations of the participants will be evaluated at pre and post treatment.

NCT ID: NCT05410054 Not yet recruiting - Stroke Clinical Trials

Quantitative Prognostic Analysis of Upper Limb Motor Dysfunction After Stroke

Start date: August 10, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

30% - 66% of stroke survivors have upper limb dysfunction. Effective rehabilitation can improve the prognosis, but the rehabilitation resources are limited. How to evaluate the prognosis early and formulate an individualized rehabilitation plan based on realistic expectations is still inconclusive. The current research shows that some brain network changes are related to the recovery of motor function. The dynamic connection of multi-modal and spatio-temporal fusion of motor network is helpful to the prognosis analysis of upper limb dyskinesia after stroke. 178 stroke patients will be included in this project. Fugl-Meyer motor function scale (upper limb part) and Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) will be evaluated at enrollment, 1month/3month/6month after onset. According to the results, the groups with good prognosis and poor prognosis will be distinguished; blood oxygen level dependent imaging and diffusion tensor imaging will be collected at the same time to compare the similarities and differences of the function and structural connection of the motion network; the correlation between interhemispheric connection, intrahemispheric connection, cross network connection of motor network and prognosis will be analyzed, the clinical and imaging features of different prognosis will be extracted. This study can provide scientific data support for the prognosis analysis of upper limb dysfunction after stroke, the improvement of rehabilitation clinical decision-making and the optimization of rehabilitation resource allocation.

NCT ID: NCT04913506 Not yet recruiting - Hemiplegia Clinical Trials

Evaluation of the Effects of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation and Mirror Therapy in Hemiplegia Rehabilitation

Start date: June 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this study, it was aimed to evaluate whether or not NMES in front of the mirror brings an additional benefit to mirror therapy alone or NMES alone on upper extremity motor and functional development, spasticity, anxiety, depression, cognitive function and activities of daily living, and neuropathic pain.

NCT ID: NCT02966990 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Upper Extremity Dysfunction

Biomechanical Analysis of the Effects of Upper Limb Orthosis During the Execution of a Functional Task

Start date: December 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The orthotics are auxiliary therapeutic resources indicated for the relief of pain, improves functional standard or correction of deformities. There is a lack of studies that analyze the biomechanical changes promoted by the Orthotics in functional pattern of the upper limb. The objective of this proposal is to analyse biomechanical changes in the functional upper limb pattern with the use of orthoses for patients with dysfunctions arising from musculoskeletal system trauma or burns, aiming to contribute with scientific evidence to clinical practice. The project will analyze the changes in the pattern of the upper limb functional through the use of dynamic and static Orthotics by means of kinematic and electromyographic analysis while conducting a functional task. These comparisons will be carried out with and without the use of functional Orthotics, and the controls are the patients themselves. Methods: 25 patients will be included over 18 years with malfunctions resulting from orthopaedic trauma and Burns of the upper limb with indication and Orthotics for improving functional pattern. For characterization of the sample will be performed: esthesiometric , hand and the (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand) DASH Questionnaire. Biomechanical assessment will be used for the analysis and electromyographic kinematics. For statistical analysis will be applied the method of analysis of variance (ANOVA) for repeated measures, and when necessary, the post hoc Bonferroni test. Will be adopted as significance level p ≤ 0.05.
