Summary

This is a pilot randomised control trial to assess the safety, compliance, and acceptability of delivering a 6-week programme of remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) to stroke patients suffering with fatigue, and study feasibility. A minimum of 34 patients who have suffered an ischeamic or haemorrhagic stroke and who suffer from fatigue, will be recruited and randomised to receive a 6-week programme of either RIC or a sham intervention.

Conditions

  • Stroke, Ischemic
  • Stroke Hemorrhagic
  • Fatigue

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Remote Ischaemic Conditioning
