  2. N1P1 amplitude of somatosensory evoked potential

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  3. motor threshold of motor evoked potential

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  4. map size of motor evoked potential

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Fugl-Meyer Assessment

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  2. Motricity Index

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  3. Berg Balance Scale

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  4. walking speed

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  5. Modified-Emory Functional Ambulation Profile

    Measures a patient's ability to walk through 5 commonly experienced types of terrain.

    Measured: Change from baseline at 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Treadmill training with functional electrical stimulation and Treadmill training without functional electrical stimulation in people with Stroke, run by National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University.

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 24 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

N1 latency of somatosensory evoked potential (time frame: Change from baseline at 4 weeks). The study lists 4 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 24 Jun 2016.
