Development and Validation of a Structured Tele-rehabilitation Programme to Improve the Treatment of Brain Injured Patients

Sponsor

Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain

Enrollment

50 participants

Start Date

Feb 21, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Ischemic Stroke Hemorrhagic Stroke Brain Injury, Vascular

Summary

The goal of this research project is to develop a tele-rehabilitation programme, which will constitute an original care pathway for brain damaged patients. It will aim to improve their impairments, activities and social participation. The programme will deliver a therapeutic education and self-education programme targeting the upper and lower limbs, and will assess the patients by means of a diary and self-evaluation questionnaires.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria3

Present with an acute, subacute or chronic ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke,
Be at least 18 years old,
To be hospitalised in the neurorehabilitation unit.

Exclusion Criteria4

Other neurological or musculoskeletal disease limiting their functional capacities,
Pain in the upper limb making it impossible to mobilise.
Inadaptability of the device to the patient's physiological position, especially in cases of contracture or severe spasticity.
Severe cognitive disorders preventing the understanding of instructions.

Interventions

OTHERtelerehabilitation

During this study, the patient will be asked to use the "TeleRé" programme at least 5 times a week for 30 minutes for one month. Through the programme, they will have access to exercises in video format and thus self-rehabilitation as well as serious therapeutic games. The self-education games and videos target the functional and motor recovery of the upper limb. In addition, cognitive functions (attention, memory, etc.) will also be stimulated via the programme. Therapeutic education modules and PROMS assessments will also be available.
