About this study

Official title: A Model Based Study for Gait in Heminglect Patient Pre and Post Vestibul-ocular Rehabilitation

Gait problems in hemineglect patient post stroke , vestibuloocular training plays a role in improving gait function, gait assessment using a model based study (Microsoft Kinect) for pre and post training assesment.

Read the detailed description

The syndrome of visuospatial neglect is a common consequence of unilateral brain injury. It is most often associated with stroke and is more severe and persistent following right hemisphere damage, with reported frequencies in the acute stage of up to 80%. This may result in gait disturbance, high levels of energy expenditure and increase the risk of falls. Vestibuleo-ocular training techniques are aimed at improving or even restoring visual function by training patients to detect stimuli in the blind hemifield and increase their overall sensitivity to them. The investigators propose a model based (Microsoft Kinect), a device can be used for assessment of spatiotemporal gait variables as well as gait kinematics.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing vestibuloocular training and regular exercise training for hemiplegic patients in people with Hemiplegic Gait, run by Beni-Suef University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 9 inclusion and 7 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 Jul 2019. 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 Egypt. 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?

gait changes in hemineglect patient after vestibulo ocular rehabilitation program (time frame: baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03913663, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 Jul 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
