[Abstract] Evaluation of custom-made VR exergame for at-home Stroke rehabilitation. A longitudinal single-arm study. - Full Text PDF
Abstract
Exercise games (Exergames) based on Virtual Reality (VR) have emerged as a promising option for supporting physical rehabilitation in stroke users. As a com- plementary therapy, they offer valuable benefits such as therapy engagement and enjoyment. In this study, we assessed the effectiveness of an immersive, custom- made VR exergame designed for upper limb rehabilitation in stroke…

[Abstract] Hybrid Brain-Computer Interface Controlled Soft Robotic Glove for Stroke Rehabilitation
Abstract:
Soft robotic glove controlled by a brain-computer interface (BCI) have demonstrated effectiveness in hand rehabilitation for stroke patients. Current systems mostly rely on static visual representations for patients to perform motor imagination (MI) tasks, resulting in lower BCI performance. Therefore, this study innovatively used MI and high-frequency steady-state visual evoked…

[WEB] How common is Epilepsy?
Epilepsy – An Overview
Epilepsy is not one single condition. Rather, it is defined as a spectrum of disorders that involve abnormal activity within the brain. “Epilepsy” means the same thing as the term “seizure disorders.” In epilepsy, abnormal brain waves disturb electrical activity, leading to seizures. Symptoms of epileptic seizures include having unusual sensations or emotions, behaving in…

[ARTICLE] Noninvasive spinal stimulation improves walking in chronic stroke survivors: a proof-of-concept case series - Full Text
Abstract
Background
After stroke, restoring safe, independent, and efficient walking is a top rehabilitation priority. However, in nearly 70% of stroke survivors asymmetrical walking patterns and reduced walking speed persist. This case series study aims to investigate the effectiveness of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) in enhancing walking ability of persons with chronic…

[Abstract] Electrotherapy in stroke rehabilitation can improve lower limb muscle characteristics: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Abstract
Purpose
This review assesses the effect of electrotherapy (e.g. functional electrical stimulation (FES), motor and sensor therapeutic electrical stimulation (TES)) on muscle strength and skeletal muscle characteristics in individuals post-stroke compared to conventional or sham therapy.
Methods
A systematic literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, SCOPUS, and Web of Science,…

[Abstract] Neurostimulation for treatment of post-stroke impairments
Abstract
Neurostimulation, the use of electrical stimulation to modulate the activity of the nervous system, is now commonly used for the treatment of chronic pain, movement disorders and epilepsy. Many neurostimulation techniques have now shown promise for the treatment of physical impairments in people with stroke. In 2021, vagus nerve stimulation was approved by the FDA as an adjunct to…

[Preprint] Feasibility of Simultaneous Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation During Gait Training in Chronic Stroke Patients: A Randomized Double-blind Pilot Clinical Trial
Abstract
BackgroundTranscranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a therapeutic tool for improving post-stroke gaitdisturbances, with ongoing research focusing on specific protocols for its application. We evaluated thefeasibility of a rehabilitation protocol that combines tDCS with conventional gait training.
MethodsThis was a randomized, double-blind, single-center pilot clinical trial.…

[Abstract + References] The usefulness of assistive soft robotics in the rehabilitation of patients with hand impairment: A systematic review
Abstract
Introduction
Loss of hand function causes severe limitations in activity in daily living. The hand-soft robot is one of the methods that has recently been growing to increase the patient’s independence. The purpose of the present systematic review was to provide a classification, a comparison, and a design overview of mechanisms and the efficacy of the soft hand robots to help…
