Participants will be recruited from patients evaluated at University of Kentucky Chandler Hospital for acute ischemic stroke. Participants with impaired capacity may be included, as the pathology to be studied (stroke) may impair their capacity. Initial contact will be made by the sub-investigators
This is a prospective cohort, time series analysis of the routine procedures associated with the catheterization and the electrophysiology lab through ten years post intervention. The goal is to demonstrate clinical effectiveness with cardiac service line with low-volume operators. A connection
Stroke survivors are at risk of cerebrovascular and cardiovascular complications. In Denmark 25% of stroke admissions are caused by recurrent stroke or TIA. Little is known of the risk factors for recurrent stroke. This is being investigated in a cohort study (RIALTO) initiated in may 2004. The
Previous studies have shown that repeated sensory inputs from transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES) could enhance brain plasticity and conical motor output. Home-based rehabilitation is shown to be effective in motor recovery and improvement of functional ability in stroke rehabilitation.
The
Mood depression is a common and serious consequence of stroke. A large proportion of stroke patients develop post-stroke depression (PSD), either in the early or late stages after stroke. Although antidepressant agents, represented by selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are recommended
AIMS: The ultimate goal is to personalize brain stimulation for stroke so outcomes of the upper limb can be maximized for each individual patient. Even though stimulation is one of the most well studied methods to augment plasticity and boost recovery, it is still not approved for outpatient
The treatments for acute ischemic stroke have evolved rapidly in recent years including intravenous (IV) thrombolysis using recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rtPA) and endovascular thrombectomy (ET). Those new interventions constitute a landmark change in stroke treatment. Since early
Swallowing problems affect as many as 40% of adults over age 60. Serious consequences are suffered by the numerous patients with neuromuscular deficits secondary to stroke. Patients with dysphagia subsequent to stroke face risk of death from pneumonia, perhaps the most serious sequelae of dysphagia,
The study is a randomized, parallel group, behavioral intervention trial designed to reduce stroke risk. The assembled investigative team has outstanding relevant experience in epidemiology, behavioral intervention, health services clinical trials, and medicine. The target populations are Mexican
Recovery following stroke is difficult not only because of the neuronal death from the ischemic insult but also because of maladaptive brain reorganization occurring from exaggerated inhibition imparted by the over-compensating contralesional primary motor area (M1) onto the ipsilesional M1 via
Each year, 730,000 Americans experience a stroke. Forty percent are left with persistent impairment of upper extremity function. Although scientifically vetted rehabilitation therapies for this impairment are starting to emerge, current treatment is generally unsatisfactory. Therapies that seek to
In France, stroke is the third leading cause of death and the first cause of acquired disability in adults. Approximately 130,000 people suffer a stroke each year. On the other hand, since the frequency of stroke is age-related, the aging of the population suggests that the number of people with
