Trial summary

The human brain, as a processing center, controls bodily, cognitive, emotional and social functions, enabling perception, signal analysis and decision making. However, these functions can be affected by acquired brain injury (ABI), resulting from traumatic (blows to the head) or non-traumatic factors (tumors, strokes… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Deep Dictionaries for Feature Extraction in Context of Sparse Data for Electroencephalographic Signals from Brain-computer Interfaces

The human brain, as a processing center, controls bodily, cognitive, emotional and social functions, enabling perception, signal analysis and decision making. However, these functions can be affected by acquired brain injury (ABI), resulting from traumatic (blows to the head) or non-traumatic factors (tumors, strokes, infections, among others). Annually, about 55 million new cases of ABI are reported, with sequelae that can affect the quality of life of patients and their families. This scenario has driven research into tools to mitigate and recover lost capabilities. The Center for Rehabilitation Engineering and Neuromuscular and Sensory Research (CIRINS) of the Faculty of Engineering of the National University of Entre Ríos in Argentina has developed neuromuscular and sensory rehabilitation systems, with a focus on the innovation of motor rehabilitation tools using EEG-based brain-computer interfaces (BCI). These BCIs stand out for their economy and versatility, showing significant effects in the rehabilitation of motor functions. Challenges in BCI include signal complexity, artifacts, and inter-person variability, making it difficult to estimate user intent and extending calibration time. To mitigate these problems, strategies based on Deep Learning and dictionary learning have been proposed, which allow for sparse representations of data, being robust to noise and missing data, but with challenges in classification. The study proposes to develop a database of electroencephalographic signals applicable in the development of new algorithms for processing and feature extraction of this type of signals, contributing to the development of technology that supports rehabilitation processes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensory motor rhythms power bands

    The volunteer performs a movement task after a cue. A 32-channel EEG records signals following the 10-20 system and measures sensory-motor rhythm power bands.

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy Adults, run by Jaime Alejandro Quiroga Forero at 1 site in Argentina.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 6 Mar 2025. 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 Argentina. 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?

Sensory motor rhythms power bands (time frame: Day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 6 Mar 2025.
