What participants receive

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

  • Bobath Neurodevelopmental Treatment ApproachBehavioural

    The Bobath Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) rehabilitation approach is effective in increasing the functional capacity and acquiring independence in patients with stroke and brain tumor.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement Measure (STREAM)

    The Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement Measure (STREAM) is a scale with scores ranging from 0 to 70, which is used to provide an understanding of the levels of movement and quality of hemiplegic patients.

    Measured: Patients were evaluated immediately before rehabilitation, and immediately after rehabilitation service, which lasted 4-10 days on average.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The Functional Independent Measurement (FIM)

    The Functional Independent Measurement (FIM) is 18-item scale and is scored from 18 (total assistance in all areas) to 126 (complete independence). FIM consists of 13 motor (or physical) and 5 social-cognitive items, assessing self care, sphincter control, transfer, locomotion, communication, social interaction, and cognition. The results from the first 13 items (FIM motor) are summed to develop a motor score with a range of 13 to 91, and these items were used in this study.

    Measured: Patients were evaluated immediately before rehabilitation, and immediately after rehabilitation service, which lasted 4-10 days on average.

  2. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE)

    Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is a scale with scores ranging from 0 to 30, which allows the cognitive levels to be determined by examining the patient's orientation, recording memory, attention and calculation, recall, and language parameters. The score of 0 indicates that the patient has no cognitive functions, and the score of 30 indicates that the patient has a high level of cognitive functions.

    Measured: Patients were evaluated immediately before rehabilitation, and immediately after rehabilitation service, which lasted 4-10 days on average.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Brain Neoplasms and Stroke, Acute, run by Hacettepe University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 8 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 2 Jul 2018. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

The Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement Measure (STREAM) (time frame: Patients were evaluated immediately before rehabilitation, and immediately after rehabilitation service, which lasted 4-10 days on average.). 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 2 Jul 2018.
