The Feasibility, Usability, and Acceptability of Using the Oculus™ Virtual Reality Gaming Technology in Stroke Survivors for Upper Extremity and Cognitive Rehabilitation
NCT05672628
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to test the (a) feasibility, (b) usability, and (c) acceptability of using the Oculus Virtual Reality (VR) for chronic stroke survivors who have mild-moderate cognitive and unilateral arm impairment to administer upper extremity and cognitive rehabilitation, to calculate the change in upper extremity and cognition scores on standardized measurements per standard of care and to qualitatively explore the impact of engaging caregivers in supporting the stroke survivor's...

Study Evaluating MyoRegulator® Treatment in Post-Stroke Upper Limb Spasticity
NCT04742257
Recruiting
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind (patient and evaluator), sham-controlled study to be conducted in stroke patients with upper-extremity spasticity. The main objectives of this study are to evaluate the performance and safety of the MyoRegulator® device in active- versus sham-treated patients after 5 consecutive days of treatment. The MyoRegulator® device is a non-significant risk (NSR) investigational non-invasive neuromodulation device that uses multi-site direct current (multi-... Read More

Producing Increasingly Complex Themes Using Right-hemisphere Engagement (PICTURE) Implemented With Telemedicine
NCT05845047
Recruiting
The investigators propose a pilot crossover trial of 2 behavioral language treatments, with randomized order of treatments and blinded assessors, to determine if a therapy designed to stimulate right hemisphere functions (Producing Increasingly Complex Themes Using Right-hemisphere Engagement Implemented with Telemedicine - PICTURE IT; described below) is more effective in improving discourse than a published computer delivered lexical treatment (shown previously to improve naming) in subacute p...

Operant Conditioning for Rehabilitation After Stroke
NCT05020080
Recruiting
The purposes of this study include: To test if multiple upper extremity muscles represented within a discrete primary motor cortex site reflect existing muscle synergies after stroke. To test if altered muscle synergies and intermuscular coordination are malleable to motor evoked potential conditioning that induces corticospinal plasticity for the targeted muscle, wrist extensor carpi radialis

Virtual Reality Augmented Gait Adaptation in Stroke Survivors
NCT03787693
Recruiting
The major problem in stroke survivors that is being addressed in this research project is walking asymmetry, i.e., difference between the legs during walking (e.g. steps on the more affected side are longer than the other). A potential solution to this problem is using new technology like virtual reality during walking training to make stroke survivors have a better sense of their asymmetry. A second problem that we aim to address in this study is whether asymmetry is accurately felt by the stro... Read More

Improving Aphasia Using Electrical Brain Stimulation
NCT04963803
Recruiting
Language and communication are essential for almost every aspect of human life, but for people who have aphasia, a language processing disorder that can occur after stroke or brain injury, even simple conversations can become a formidable challenge. Speech and language therapy can help people recover their language ability, but often requires months or even years of therapy before a person is able to overcome these challenges. This research will investigate non-invasive brain stimulation as a wa... Read More

Locomotor Function Following Transcutaneous Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation in Individuals With Hemiplegic Stroke
NCT05167786
Recruiting
This study has two interventional components, the first is a cross-over design and the second is a randomized control trial. Both will evaluate the effectiveness of transcutaneous (non-invasive) spinal cord stimulation on gait and balance function for individuals with hemiplegia due to stroke.

Comparing Different Rehabilitation Exercise Strategies for Improving Arm Recovery After Stroke
NCT05880940
Recruiting
The purpose of this research study is to measure the effect of participating in extra arm exercise in addition to standard rehabilitation exercises in the Acute Rehabilitation Unit. This study will compare two different ways to perform the extra arm exercise. The first is following a customized program of hand and arm exercises that will be developed for study participants by an experienced rehabilitation therapist. The second is moving a participants arm back and forth when they are sitting in... Read More

Promoting Resilience in Stroke Survivor-carepartner Dyads (ReStoreD)
NCT04845542
Recruiting
Affecting nearly 800,000 people in the US every year, stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, and has serious consequences for stroke survivors and their carepartners. Our project uses a scientifically rigorous efficacy study to evaluate a remotely delivered 8-week dyadic (couples-based) positive psychology intervention to reduce emotional distress in stroke survivors and their carepartners. If successful, couples may be better emotionally equipped to cope with the sequelae of stroke,... Read More
