Trial summary

The purpose now is to: 1. identify brain connections related to proprioception to have a better understanding of differences between people with stroke and healthy persons 2. evaluate how these brain connections will change in people with stroke when they are engaged in 6-week cognitive multisensory rehabilitation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Preliminary study to measure the brain mechanisms of cognitive multisensory rehabilitation

    The robots will be used for research in healthy adults and stroke patients in the proposed studies below and are designed to mimick the exercises given during cognitive multisensory rehabilitation. The robots have been tested and cleared by the 3T safety committee at the CMRR, U of M. The first objective is a feasibility study to investigate the brain mechanisms of cognitive multisensory rehabilitation, through use of the robot in the 3T scanner at the U of M in healthy participants with stroke. Changes in brain function will be measured in individuals with stroke who will receive 8 weeks of therapy.

    Measured: 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cognitive multisensory rehabilitation in people with Stroke, run by University of Minnesota at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Preliminary study to measure the brain mechanisms of cognitive multisensory rehabilitation (time frame: 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02445768, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Mar 2023.
