Tele-CE in Severe Stroke

Sponsor: University of Illinois at Chicago

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effects of home-based cross-education on lower limb neuroplasticity in severe stroke. The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: * What are the effects of home-based cross-education on lower limb neuroplasticity? * What are the effects of home-based cross-education on lower limb function? * Is home-based cross-education feasible to administer and accepted by participants? Participants will take part in ten home-based, remotely supervised sessions, during which participants will either perform unilateral skill and strength training of the unaffected lower limb (Tele-Cross Education or Tele-CE) or cognitive training and unilateral movements of the unaffected lower limb (Tele-control). Each participant will experience measures of brain and spinal activity and motor function testing before and after both sessions (Tele-CE and Tele-control). Each participant will also be asked to fill out a feedback questionnaire to assess acceptability after intervention sessions (Tele-CE and Tele-control).

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Tele-CE

Skilled dorsiflexion and plantarflexion movements of the unaffected ankle using a tablet-based system to play simple and engaging games.

OTHER

Tele-CE

Unilateral lower limb strength training of the unaffected leg using a theraband targeting hip flexors, hip abductors, hip adductors, knee flexors, knee extensors, and ankle plantarflexors.

OTHER

Tele-Control

Cognitive training using games focusing on memory and executive function along with unilateral leg movements of the unaffected hip flexors, hip abductors, hip adductors, knee flexors, knee extensors, and ankle plantarflexors.
