EMG Controlled Device in Acute Rehabilitation After Acute Stroke (NCT04599036)
Myoelectrolytically Controlled Device in Acute Rehabilitation After Stroke
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Stroke is a medically relevant problem for the aging population. Individuals with stroke experience a high amount of arm functional deficits despite receiving rehabilitation. Functional deficits can be improved by combining rehabilitation with innovative rehabilitative tools that target the brain mechanisms that guide the recovery early after stroke. This study aims to explore the feasibility of implementing an EMG controlled device in the acute rehabilitation for stroke survivors with severe arm deficit. This study will determine if adding such a technology improve the clinical outcomes for subjects with severe arm impairments beyond the levels achieved by standard care in attempt to increase their chances to independently perform activities of daily living.
