简要总结
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, acceptability, and safety of the therapeutic system E-BRAiN for the treatment of stroke-related impairments.
详细描述
This randomized controlled trial, RCT with cross-over design sequentially allocates participants with stroke-related impairment to both a two week course of conventional rehabilitation therapy and a two week course of therapy using the therapy system E-BRAiN (purpose-built therapy system using a socially interactive humanoid robot); participants are randomly allocated to the sequences "conventional => robot" or "robot => conventional". Stroke survivors with one of the target syndromes, i.e. mild arm paresis, or moderate to severe arm paresis, or visuospatial neglect are invited to participate.

结局指标
主要结局
Change scores over two weeks for the standardised primary outcome measure
时间窗: 2 weeks
Change scores are difference scores for assessments taken two weeks apart. Changes scores are based on standardised outcome measures. Assessment scores for each measure (see below) are standardised using the known variance in stroke survivor populations for the respective measure. The following assessments will be used for standardised outcome measures: Nine-Hole-Peg-Test, NHPT (finger dexterity) and Box-and-Block Test, BBT (gross manual dexterity) (for participants with mild arm paresis); Fugl Meyer, Arm motor score, FM Arm (selective arm and hand movement capacity) (participants with moderate to severe arm paresis); Neglect-Test, NET (spatial visual attention) (participants with visual neglect).
次要结局
- Work alliance(2 weeks)
- Drop-out rate(2 weeks)
- Goal attainment(2 weeks)
- Change scores over two weeks for "Motivation for therapy"(2 weeks)
- Adverse events(2 weeks)
- Change scores over two weeks for "Emotional distress"(2 weeks)
