About this study

Official title: The Cardiac Autonomic Nervous System State and Response to Reflective, Motor and Cognitive Stimuli Among Patients Post Stroke: A Follow-up Study

The study describes the autonomic control system function in subjects post stroke in comparison with healthy subjects.

Aims: To describe the Autonomic hart rate control system function in post stroke subjects in different rehabilitation levels in comparison with healthy subjects.

To examine the reflective reaction of the autonomic control system as reflected in the heart rate variability to stimulations subjects in different rehabilitation levels in comparison with healthy subjects.

To examine the autonomic control system reaction as reflected in the heart rate variability to physical and cognitive action subjects in different rehabilitation levels in comparison with healthy subjects.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will be examined 3 times: a week 1 and 3 month post stroke. Control consist similar in description healthy subjects, will be examined once. Each test includes 24 hours Holter surveillance and an examine that include general check that reflects the autonomic reaction to different manipulation.

The examination description:

  1. Prior to the examination subjects will be asked to fill the mRS, NIHSS forms.
  2. Subjects will receive an examination that includes
  • General neurological examination (strength, deep and superficial sensation, cognitive test and pain level.) C. Holter will be place for 24 hours. And autonomic examination test will be conducted
  • Grip Test: emphases the sympathetic system.
  • Breathing Test: emphases the parasympathetic system. D. Manipulation to examine the two sub systems. Each manipulation lasts1 minute.

Study group 1Post hemispheral ischemic stroke cognitively intact. Exclusion: Subjects with severe visual or hearing impairments, stroke location brain steam. The group will be divided in to 4 goups acording to stroke specific location as demonstrated in MRI.
ControlControl: Healthy subjects resemble in age and sex
Study -3As explained the subjects will be divided into 4 groups acording to the stroke location. this is in order to evaluat the relationship between location and autonomic responed.

What is being measured

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

  1. RMSSD change

    The root mean square successive difference (RMSSD) in heart period series is a time domain measure of heart period variability.

    we will follow up the change in RMSSD at 1st and 3rd month post stroke

    Measured: 3 month post stroke

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. 6mwt

    Endurance will be measured with the 6 minute walk test (6MWT). we will follow up the endurane change.

    Measured: 3 month post stroke

  2. Patient's characteristics

    1. Patient's characteristics questionnaire will include data such as: age, gender, health condition, medication, habits, education, etc.
    2. mRS and NIHSS questionears

    Measured: 3 month post stroke

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke, run by Tel-Aviv Sourasky 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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jul 2012. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Natan Borshtain, prof. (972-3-6973159), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

RMSSD change (time frame: 3 month post stroke). 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 3 Jul 2012.
