Operant Conditioning for Rehabilitation After Stroke

NCT05020080 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 20

Last updated 2023-11-29

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purposes of this study include:

1. To test if multiple upper extremity muscles represented within a discrete primary motor cortex site reflect existing muscle synergies after stroke.
2. To test if altered muscle synergies and intermuscular coordination are malleable to motor evoked potential conditioning that induces corticospinal plasticity for the targeted muscle, wrist extensor carpi radialis

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Operant conditioning of motor evoked potentials

MEPs elicited by TMS will be applied at the hot spot for the wrist extensor carpi radialis. During training trials, participants will be asked to increase the size of their MEP response. During assessment trials, a physical therapist or occupational therapist will rate the functional level of arm impairment using FMA and ARAT.
