Prognosis and Diagnosis of Spasticity in Acute-post Stroke Patients

Recruiting now1 site

Spasticity, or greater muscle resistance, is a major disabling condition following stroke. Recovery of lost motor function in patients with stroke may be affected by spasticity, which most commonly develops in elbow and ankle muscles. Howev…

The Role of Cognition in Motor Learning After Stroke

Recruiting now1 site

Stroke leads to lasting problems in using the upper limb (UL) for everyday life activities. While rehabilitation programs depend on motor learning, UL recovery is less than ideal. Implicit learning is thought to lead to better outcomes than…

This is a randomized parallel group clinical trial which will be conducted in three countries (Spain, Canada and Belgium) comparing Botulinum Toxin type A (BTX-A) and Dry Needling (DN) effectiveness for post-stroke spasticity in participant…

Feasibility of Real-Time Visual Feedback in Augmented Reality to Reduce Gait Asymmetry Post-Stroke

Opening soon1 site

Unilateral motor deficits, such as paresis and tone disorders, are frequent consequences of stroke and lead to gait impairments. Among these, spatial asymmetry is characterized by differences in step length between the paretic and non-paret…

Protecting the Brain From Post-Stroke Cognitive Impairment and Dementia With Multimodal Exercise Training

Recruiting now2 sites

The rates of cognitive decline and dementia after stroke are disproportionately high. Strategies that can protect the brain early after the stroke event could reduce the future risk of cognitive decline and dementia in these patients. Altho…
