Active clinical trials for "Stroke"

To assess Hemodynamic changes in rtPA receiving Acute Ischaemic Stroke patients. To assess the efficacy of rtPA in treatment of Acute Ischaemic Stroke patients. To correlate TCD findings (post treatment) with one of standard vascular imaging in AIS (CTA or MRA).

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of augmented and virtual reality-based rehabilitation programs on improving upper extremity function in subacute stroke patients.

Stroke rehabilitation for stroke patients can enhance the upper and lower limb function, daily of daily activity improvement, and be beneficial to the family members' quality of life. Literature studies have supported the use of tele-rehabilitation to be as effective as stroke home rehabilitation. Stroke tele-rehabilitation model can use smartphones and apps to practice the mobile health model. Nevertheless, effects of tele-rehabilitation analysis for the proximal recovery of the stroke upper limbs still need to be explored. The main purpose of this research is to develop a smart phone with app system for stroke upper limb motor training, and further analyze its feasibility and treatment effects. The investigators randomly assigned chronic home stroke cases to the experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=20), each group received 8 weeks of treatment.

Ischemic post-conditioning is a neuroprotective strategy that has been proven to attenuate reperfusion injury in animal models of stroke. The purpose of this proof-of-concept study is to determine the safety and tolerability of ischemic post-conditioning in patients with acute ischemic stroke who are treated with mechanical thrombectomy.

The purpose of this study is to assess effects of core stability training on functional ability, balance, gait, motor functions, quality of lite and core muscle thickness of chronic stroke patients.

To compare the effect of anodal cerebellar Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) vs anodal cerebral tDCS on balance, mobility and cognition in stroke patients in stroke patients

Post-stroke gait deviations contribute to significant functional disability, impaired walking ability and poor quality of life. Prior studies suggest that gait training with paretic lower limb loading may improve gait parameters and walking ability in post-stroke. However, most gait training methods used in these studies are not readily available, and studies using cheaper methods are limited.

This study will investigate the impact of cardiovascular exercise on brain plasticity among patients in sub-acute stages after stroke, and whether genotype modulates the response to this intervention. Participants in the experimental group will perform cardiovascular training for 8 weeks, three times/week in addition to standard therapy, while participants in the control group will perform standard therapy only. Assessments will be performed at baseline, four weeks, and 8 weeks after training.

study aims to evaluate the efficacy of high and low frequency TENS on spasticity, strength and functional status in stroke patients. It may provide further knowledge concerning the use of TENS for motor impairments in stroke patients and may clarify ambiguities to some extent.

This study aims to assess the prevalence of aspirin resistance in patients with acute ischemic stroke and its importance in secondary stroke prevention. Effect of aspirin resistance on short and long term mortality and detection of its relationship with recurrence of stroke.
