About this study

Official title: Postural Wheelchair Control in Hemiplegic Stroke Patients

The investigators looked at the population of hemiplegic stroke participants hospitalized with GHIV : the investigators assessed the postural control of the participants of the chair using MCPAA, and assessed the pain of the participants while sitting in a wheelchair. The investigators then had to the participants try positioning equipment and then prescribed it once the choice was made. The investigators then reassessed postural control and wheelchair pain with this positioning equipment.

Read the detailed description

For each hemiplegic participants with wheelchair user stroke, the investigators collect : date of birth, date of stroke, side of hemiplegia. The wheelchair propulsion mode, the degree of autonomy (FAC and Enjalber scales), the way bed - wheelchair transfers are made. Assessment of wheelchair pain in the spine and Ischia with EVA. Time to travel 10 meters in a wheelchair. Postural control of the wheelchair is evaluated by the MCPAA. The investigators then carry out tests of positioning equipment : backrest, cushion, form elements and belt. This material is tried for several days. If it is appropriate (improvement on the postural control and on the pains), otherwise another material is tried.

When the choice is made, the material is prescribed. The participant is seen again 3 months after the delivery of his personal material, and the same evaluation is redone.

What participants receive

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

  • Measurement of sitting postural control of the adult (MCPAA)Other

    The Adult Seated Postural Control Measure 2.0 (MCPAA 2.0) is a clinical evaluation tool for sitting postural control of adult clients using a locomotion aid. It thus allows the evaluation of the two variables inherent to the postural control sit, the alignment of body segments and the influence between movement and posture.

    It can also be used to evaluate the changes in seated postural control due to changes over time or to an adaptation of the sitting posture.

    Assessment of wheelchair pain in the spine and ischia by a self-evaluation scale (EVA).

    the speed of propulsion by a wheelchair.

What is being measured

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

  1. Study the improvement of the basin retroversion.

    The Adult Seated Postural Control Measure 2.0 (MCPAA 2.0) is a clinical evaluation tool for sitting postural control of adult clients using a locomotion aid. It thus allows the evaluation of the two variables inherent to the postural control sit, the alignment of body segments and the influence between movement and posture. It can also be used to evaluate the changes in seated postural control due to changes over time or to an adaptation of the sitting posture.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of one year.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The tilt.

    Assessment of wheelchair pain in the spine and ischia by a self-evaluation scale (EVA). The self-evaluation scale (EVA) is used to assess participant pain.

    It is in the form of a straight line of 100 mm. This scale is composed on the reverse side of a horizontal line from "no pain" to "maximum pain imaginable". The left side corresponds to "no pain", the right end corresponds to "maximum pain imaginable". The participant indicates, with the cursor, his level of pain on the line. The pain score is displayed on the front of the scale.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of one year.

  2. Propulsion speed.

    The propelling speed of the wheelchair.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of one year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Wheelchair, run by Groupement Hospitalier Intercommunal du Vexin.

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 2 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 21 Feb 2021. 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?

Study the improvement of the basin retroversion. (time frame: Through study completion, an average of one year.). 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 21 Feb 2021.
