About this study

Official title: A Novel BCI-controlled Pneumatic Glove System for Neurorehabilitation Post-stroke

The goal is to evaluate the potential of a EEG based BCI (Brain-Computer-Interface) connected to a non-invasive pneumatic glove for rehabilitation of hand-movements post-stroke.

Read the detailed description

Brain computer interfaces (BCI) encompasses the usage of the brain signals to compensate for lost physical function. The current protocol evaluates the therapeutic potential of a EEG based driven BCI that is connected to a non-invasive pneumatic glove for rehabilitation of hand flexion/extension post-stroke. The system non-invasive, portable and low-cost. The utility and usability of the system will be investigated at two levels. First by means of questionnaires for patients and therapist and second by means of in depth analysis of the EEG signals during intended, imagined and passive driven hand movements in relation to no movement at all and the capacity of the BCI to distinguish between these conditions.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EEG based Brain Computer InterfaceDevice

    Using EEG signals to classify brain activity being 'rest' or 'active' to control the attached pneumatic glove and close the sensory-motor loop between intentional/mental movement and physical (though passive) movement.

What is being measured

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

  1. Performance of the BCI-system (evaluation of performance through patient questionaires & the performance of the BCI classifier during intended and imagined hand movements)

    Evaluation of the BCI-platform performance through patient questionnaires \& the performance of the BCI classifier during intended and imagined hand movements.

    Measured: During the whole study. Assesment is made for each patient after his participation ( 2 hours).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. EEG sensory-motor rhythm signals (Detailed analysis of the EEG signals in relation to the severity of the paresis and movement condition)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EEG based Brain Computer Interface in people with Poststroke/CVA Hemiparesis and Paralytic Stroke, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 4 inclusion and 2 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 24 Nov 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 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?

Performance of the BCI-system (evaluation of performance through patient questionaires & the performance of the BCI classifier during intended and imagined hand movements) (time frame: During the whole study. Assesment is made for each patient after his participation ( 2 hours).). 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 24 Nov 2015.
