Clinical Implementation of Multichannel Functional Electrical Stimulation Device for Gait Rehabilitation in Subchronic Stroke: A Feasibility Study
Sponsor: TOPMED
Summary
The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the effect of multichannel functionnal electrical stimulation for subchronic stroke gait rehabilitation. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does this new therapy help improve walking speed? * Evaluate other aspects of therapeutic effectiveness such as different aspects of walking endurance, mobility, postural instability and autonomy. * Evaluate physiological aspects of autonomous gait such as spasticity, muscle strength and motor and sensorimotor recovery. * Evaluate the acceptability of this new therapy and its effect on quality of life.

Interventions
Multichannel functionnal electrical stimulation
The participants completed 24 gait rehabilitation sessions over the course of 8 to 12 weeks. Each session lasted between 30 minutes and 1 hour. A minimum of 2 days seperated two consecutive sessions. The number of sessions was used for standardization of the protocol instead of duration of treatment. Four evaluations were completed throughout the protocol. Baseline evaluation(V1) was completed between 2 and 7 days before the first rehabilitation session. Intermediate evaluation(V2) was completed between 2 and 7 days after the 12th rehabilitation session, in other words 4 to 6 weeks after the baseline evaluation (V1) . Post-treatment evaluation(V3) was completed between 2 and 7 days after the 24th rehabilitation session, in other words 8 to 12 weeks after the baseline evaluation (V1). Follow-up evaluation(V4) was completed 2 months(60 days) after the 24th rehabilitation session, in other words 16 to 20 weeks after the baseline evaluation (V1).
