earlY Upper Limb Rehabilitation WIth EEG-Neurofeedback After Stroke

Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of early rehabilitation treatment by electroencephalographic neurofeedback on upper limb motor function after stroke.

Researchers will compare :

Interventional group: electroencephalographic neurofeedback + traditional reference rehabilitation programme Control group: SHAM electroencephalographic neurofeedback + traditional reference rehabilitation programme

Conditions

• Stroke
• Stroke Hemorrhagic
• Stroke, Ischemic
• Stroke Rehabilitation
• Brain Infarction

Interventions

OTHER

electroencephalographic neurofeedback

The patient is installed in a quiet, isolated room in the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department. The patient sits comfortably in front of a computer. A nurse or a rehabilitator installs the EEG headset and places gel in the electrodes (x32). Connecting the amplifier and interface. Checking the correct positioning and contact of the electrodes (impedance). * Calibration phase at rest. * Working phase: the sessions last 24 minutes. The patient will be asked to concentrate on the affected arm, and to imagine a movement of this arm, to feel the sensations, without any real movement of the arm. * In the Neurofeedback group, the patient will receive visual feedback of a virtual hand moving on a computer screen in front of him/her, depending on his/her brain activations. He will also receive haptic feedback (vibrations) in the flexor muscles of his wrist.

SHAM electroencephalographic neurofeedback

The patient is installed in a quiet, isolated room in the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department. The patient sits comfortably in front of a computer. A nurse or a rehabilitator installs the EEG headset and places gel in the electrodes (x32). Connecting the amplifier and interface. Checking the correct positioning and contact of the electrodes (impedance). * Calibration phase at rest. * Working phase: the sessions last 24 minutes. The patient will be asked to concentrate on the affected arm, and to imagine a movement of this arm, to feel the sensations, without any real movement of the arm. * In the SHAM group, the visual feedback and haptic feedback are randomly generated
