Spatial-Motor Stroke-Rehab Study

Join our stroke rehab study for spatial-motor recovery research.

Recruiting
18-90 years
All
Phase N/A

This study looks at how prism adaptation training (PAT) with or without electrical stimulation changes how people see things in space, their brain's motor system, and how they walk. Spatial Neglect (SN) is a condition where people ignore one side of space and happens often after a stroke, which can make walking and daily activities harder. PAT is a treatment that helps people with SN, but we need to know more about how it helps with walking. Electrical stimulation involves using small electric currents to help muscles move better. The study aims to understand these therapies better by first testing them on healthy adults and then on stroke survivors with SN.

Key Points:

  • Participants: Healthy adults aged 18-90 and stroke survivors aged 40-90.
  • Activities: Involves training sessions with PAT and possibly electrical stimulation.
  • Goal: To improve rehab methods for stroke survivors with SN.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
