IMAS Optimization and Applicability in an Acute Stroke Setting.
Acute StrokeThe investigator will investigate our Integrated sensor-based Motion Analysis Suite (IMAS) to objectively and quantitatively measure acute stroke patient motor status.
The Level of Blood Brain Barrier Damage Biomarker in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Ischemic StrokeHemorrhagic transformation is a common complication of acute ischemic stroke patients . BBB damage is regarded as a major pathophysiological mechanism of hemorrhagic transformation. So, the investigators hypothesis the level of BBB damage biomarker is predictor of intracranial hemorrhage following ischemic stroke.
Visual Perception Difficulties After Stroke
StrokeVisual PerceptionThe goal of this observational study is to learn how well the Oxford Visual Perception Screening (OxVPS) tool can identify stroke survivors with visual perception difficulties. The main aim is to determine the accuracy and utility of the OxVPS compared to the current gold standard assessment in stroke survivors. In other words, how well can the Oxford Visual Perception Screening tool (OxVPS) identify stroke patients with visual perception problems? Participants will completed the OxVPS and the current gold standards visual perception screening tool.
Validation of AI Models to Measure Physical Activity After a Stroke
StrokeThe research team are developing algorithms using artificial intelligence that use information collected by accelerometers to detect a person's position, such as whether an individual is lying, sitting, or standing, and the individual's movements, such as whether they are taking steps or standing up. Sensor location will affect the accuracy of the model and acceptability of the method. The research team are therefore developing algorithms for four different locations. The purpose of the research is for the development of the algorithms and check whether they accurately recognise different positions and movements in people whose movement is affected by a stroke, and by being in a hospital environment (e.g. using a profiling bed). The research team plan to recruit between 34 and 50 participants who are admitted hospital due to having a stroke. After providing informed consent, participants will be asked to complete a one-off assessment with a member of the research team and a ward physiotherapist. Participants will be asked to wear the four sensors, and move through a series of postures, walk for up to six minutes, and stand as many times as they feel able in one minute.
A Study for Collecting Data on the Motion Analysis of Stroke Patients
StrokeAn observational study to collect (functional evaluation and daily motion) for composing 3D kinematic data that will be the basis for setting rehabilitation goal points for each stroke patient and developing virtual reality rehabilitation contents via video shooting.
Post-stroke Cognitive Impairment
First-ever Ischemic StrokeCognitive PerformancePresent study aims to track the post-stroke cognitive trajectories and to investigate its inter-individual variability.
Study on the Establishment of a System for Early Warning and Prognostic Evaluation of Patients With...
Heat StrokeEarly Waking4 moreHeat stroke is a clinical syndrome with high incidence and high fatality rate in summer. Patients with liver, kidney, and brain damage are prone to secondary MODS, and the prognosis is poor due to high medical costs. At present, there is no unified diagnostic criteria for acute liver injury associated with heat stroke, and the commonly used prognosis scores are rarely included in liver injury indicators, which is not good for practicality.
Get With the Guidelines-Stroke Registry
StrokeGet With The Guidelines-Stroke is a program for improving the quality of care for patients hospitalized with stroke by promoting consistent adherence to the latest evidence-based clinical practice guidelines.
Robot Aided Rehabilitation - Multi-joint Evaluations
StrokeSensory and motor impairments following stroke can lead to substantial disability involving the arm and hand. The investigator hypothesized that excessive local and cross-coupled stiffness, diminished individuation and proprioceptive acuity will be present among multiple degree of freedom in the upper limb. The stiffness and spasticity will increase with time post-stroke. The objective of this study is to quantify the progression throughout the arm and hand during recovery from stroke. The investigator will measure the clinical assessment scores, and neuromechanical properties including range of motion, active and passive cross coupling, and spasticity by the IntelliArm robot.
Impact of Non-invasive Brain Stimulation on Motor Recuperation
StroketDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) will be used in chronic stroke patients to improve a variety of functions with superior or inferior limb.
