Effects of Using Advanced NEUROrehabilitation TECHnologies in Upper Limb Motor Function and Capacity Recovery in People With Stroke
Sponsor: Azienda Unita Sanitaria Locale di Piacenza
Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effect of a personalized technology-based rehabilitative intervention on Upper Limb (UL) motor function and capacity recovery in People with Stroke (PwS). The study is single-cohort study in which eligible participants will undergo baseline and follow-up clinical and instrumental assessments over a 4-5 week period. The intervention consists of a personalized and specific upper limb technology-based rehabilitation programme delivered three times per week for a total of 12-15 sessions. Each session lasts approximately one hour and is integrated with conventional rehabilitation treatments. Primary outcomes include Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) and Action Research Arm Test (ARAT). Secondary outcomes include instrumental assessment of active range of motion and grip strength.

Technology-based UL rehabilitation
Participants will receive conventional treatments, including neuromotor, occupational therapy, speech therapy and/or neuropsychology treatments, as clinically indicated. In addition, they will undergo a personalized and specific UL technology-based rehabilitation programme, delivered 3 times per week, for a total of 12 - 15 sessions. Each session will last 1 hour and will be conducted in a 1:1 format (physiotherapist : participant). Data on rehabilitation dosage will be collected, including the total number of hours of rehabilitation received. Physiotherapists who will have in charge participant, will compiled a treatment diary for each technology session in which they will record: number of session, total hour of technology-based treatments, type of device used and any adverse events.
