STROKE SEQUELAE

This study tested a new way of caring for stroke patients that brings together doctors, nurses, and family members using technology and teamwork. About 1,200 adults who had a stroke took part. The goal was to see if this coordinated care helps people recover better and have a hig…

This study tested a 12-week walking program for 140 chronic stroke survivors. The program combined robotic-assisted walking with regular walking exercises. The goal was to improve walking ability, help with weight management, and lower blood pressure. Researchers wanted to find t…

This study tested whether special ankle exercises could improve balance and walking in people who had a stroke at least a year ago. 140 participants were split into two groups: one did the ankle training plus standard gait training, the other did standard gait training alone. Aft…

This study tested a new medicine called MLC1501 to help people recover after a stroke. 303 adults who had a stroke within the past 2 to 10 days took either a high dose, low dose, or a placebo pill twice a day for 24 weeks. The main goal was to see if MLC1501 improves motor functi…

This study tested a mobile robot designed to help people who have had a stroke regain their ability to walk. 37 stroke survivors used the robot for 16 sessions along with their usual physical therapy. The goal was to see if the robot improved their balance and walking more than s…

This study tested whether combining somatotherapy (body awareness and movement exercises) with occupational therapy (training in daily tasks like dressing and cooking) could improve cognitive function in 50 adults who had a stroke. Participants received 35-minute sessions five da…

This study looked at why some people have trouble balancing while sitting after a stroke. Researchers used a special pressure-sensing pad and motion trackers to measure how 32 stroke survivors shifted their weight and moved their head and trunk. The goal was to better understand …

This study tested a virtual reality (VR) system to measure how quickly stroke survivors react to objects on their left or right side. Researchers compared these VR results with standard paper tests for spatial neglect. The goal was to see if VR can reliably assess attention probl…

This study tested whether showing older hospitalized patients their own activity levels on a bedside screen could encourage them to move more. 130 adults aged 60+ with conditions like COPD, heart failure, or Parkinson's wore a small sensor and saw real-time feedback on time spent…
