Summary: The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided and non-guided suprascapular nerve block in the treatment of patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain, which is one of the most common post-stroke complications.

Summary: The main objective:~To determine changes in physiological and structural properties of upper limb muscles with spasticity in patients with acquired brain injury after applying neural mobilization improving their functional performance, their participation in society and quality of life.~Hypothesis:~Peripheral nerve mobilizations performed with neurodynamic techniques in upper limb in patients with...

Summary: This trial is a multi center, randomized, controlled, excellent effect, open and loading trial design. The subjects are randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group adopts litestepper single lower limb rehabilitation training robot walking training on the basis of routine rehabilitation management of stroke patients with hemiplegia, walking training onc...

Summary: This study will compare the motor outcomes for five infants with asymmetrical hand function (AHF) who will receive two, three week episodes of standard care separated by a three week episode of mCIMT paired with Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation. The results of this study will inform decisions on the feasibility and efficacy of the treatment for use in a larger study for infants with AHF at ris...

Summary: Phase 2/3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-treatment, multicenter trial assessing the efficacy and safety of MYOBLOC for the treatment of upper limb spasticity in adults followed by an open-label extension safety trial.

Summary: Hemiparetic gait is characterized by strong asymmetries that could severely affect the quality of life of stroke survivors. This asymmetry is due to motor deficits in the paretic leg and the resulting compensations in the non-paretic limb.~In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the effect of actively promoting gait symmetry in hemiparetic patients by assessing the motion and muscular act...

Summary: Application of Transcranial Direct Current or placebo combined with Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) and bimanual intensive therapy (BIT) in infantile hemiplegia (4-8 years). Before, after the treatment and 3 months after the treatment, the functionality of the affected upper limb will be assessed: Spontaneous use, alignment of the affected segment in movement, action of grasping and rel...

Summary: Rehabilitation of paretic stroke patients, aimed to improve function of the impaired upper limb, uses a wide range of intervention programs. A new rehabilitative approach, called Action Observation Therapy (AOT), based on the discovery of mirror neurons, has been used to improve motor functions of adult stroke patients and children with cerebral palsy. Recently, Virtual Reality (VR) provided the p...

Summary: The purpose of this project is to investigate the effect of functional electrical stimulation (FES) for recovery of dorsiflexion after stroke. It will be led from the University Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at Danderyd Hospital (RMDS) in collaboration with the MoveAbility Lab at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Patients referred to RMDS for inpatient rehabilitation early after hemiparet...

Summary: In this research study, the investigators aim to test the usability and efficacy of the GaitBetter system for gait rehabilitation after stroke.

Summary: Two movement illusion techniques can currently be used in clinical practice for motor rehabilitation after stroke hemiplegia: visual illusion (mirror therapy) and proprioceptive illusion (tendon vibration). Mirror therapy, in its computerized version (IVS3, Dessintey, Saint-Etienne, France), is based on the substitution of the deficient visual feedback by a visual feedback of a correctly realized ...

Summary: Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood (AHC) is a rare and severe disease that is in need of effective, and hopefully even curative, therapies. Afflicted patients suffer from severe paralyzing crises, often excruciatingly painful muscle spasms, severe often life threatening epileptic seizures, frequently severe developmental and psychiatric/psychological disabilities and other comorbidities, such as ...
