About this study

Official title: Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation : Role in the Improvement of Egocentric Frame in Patient With Right Parietal Lobe Lesions

Right posterior parietal cortex is involved in spatial cognition. Blindfolded patients suffering right posterior parietal lesions fail to update their own position after a body rotation. Right cathodal galvanic vestibular stimulation activates right posterior parietal cortex and reduces symptoms of spatial neglect, another disability frequently encountered after right posterior parietal lesion. The aims of this study are to confirm posterior parietal involvement in automatic updating of body-centered spatial relationships and to evaluate therapeutic effects of galvanic vestibular stimulation. Performances of three groups of adults are compared before and during galvanic vestibular stimulation on a pointing task: a healthy control group, a brain-injured control group with stroke lesions sparing right posterior parietal cortex and a group of stroke patients with right posterior parietal lesions.

What is being measured

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

  1. deviation from target score

    difference in degree between the actual and target score

    Measured: 30 min

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. deviation from target "straight ahead"

    difference in degree between the actual straight ahead and target score

    Measured: 30min

  2. deviation rightward line bisection

    percentage difference between actual and target score on test "deviation right line bisection"

    Measured: 30min

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing galvanic vestibular stimulation in people with Hypertensive Hemorrhage of Right Parietal Lobe, run by Centre d'Investigation Clinique et Technologique 805 at 1 site in France.

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 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2015. 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 France. 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 was stopped early (reason given: lack of performance). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

deviation from target score (time frame: 30 min). 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 Feb 2015.
