About this study

The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and efficacy of an early supervised aerobic exercise program for patients following a minor ischemic stroke.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and efficacy of an early supervised aerobic exercise program for patients following a minor ischemic stroke. Patients after a minor ischemic stroke would be randomized within 1-3 weeks of stroke onset to a control group (6 weeks of low intensity stretching and coordination exercises followed by a supervised aerobic training program) or an experimental group (immediate aerobic training program). Patients will be evaluated for measures of ambulation endurance, mobility, gait, functional assessment and clinical follow-up after 6 weeks and again 3 months later.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Supervised aerobic training in people with Stroke and Cerebrovascular Accident, run by Sheba Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 1 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 27 Oct 2009. 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 Israel. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

6 Minute Walk Test at 6 weeks. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Oct 2009.
