About this study

This is an experimental, observational, prospective study designed to develop medical knowledge.

The primary objective of the study is to analyze the weight bearing of the hemiplegic side according to the different areas of interest during the practice of table tennis.

Read more

This study is part of a usual framework of management of post-stroke hemiplegic patients with an additional passage to the movement laboratory to collect additional data collection, via the use of force plateforms, considered here as non-interventional.

The passage to the movement laboratory consists in the practice of a table tennis session including three game situations. Before to the table tennis session, the subject placed on the force plateforms, performs a spontaneous bipodal station followed by a maximum voluntary support transfer on the hemiplegic limb. During the table tennis session, the subject is filmed and his load on the hemiplegic side during the game situations is evaluated using the force platforms.

In addition of the table tennis session three questionnaires are administered to the patient in order to know :

  • The static and dynamic balance in order to identify persons at risk of falling: Berg Balance and Evaluation Scale
  • The degree of autonomy of the patient: Modified Rankin Score
  • The Stroke severity: NIHSS score

What is being measured

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

  1. To analyze the weight bearing on the hemiplegic side according to the different areas of interest of interest during the practice of table tennis.

    The vertical force peaks (Fz) under the hemiplegic foot and under the non-injured foot recorded during the subject's ball returns throughout the session. These peaks will be categorized according to the zones and the shots used by the subject.

    Measured: During the only table tennis session on the one day of patient inclusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To compare the weight bearing on the hemiplegic side during table tennis practice to a voluntary weight-bearing exercise on the injured limb.

    Peak vertical force (Fz) under the hemiplegic foot and under the non-injured foot are compared between table tennis and the analytical exercise of voluntary weight-bearing voluntary.

    Measured: During the only table tennis session on the one day of patient inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Post-stroke and Hemiplegic Gait, run by FondationbHopale 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 7 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Contact Marine DESEUR (0362882780, marine.deseur@fondation-hopale.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To analyze the weight bearing on the hemiplegic side according to the different areas of interest of interest during the practice of table tennis. (time frame: During the only table tennis session on the one day of patient inclusion). 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.
