No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to identify the effect of different time intervals between continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) and intermittent theta burst stimulation(iTBS), on top of a standard robot-assisted training (RAT) for sensorimotor rehabilitation in patients with chronic stroke. Using electroencephalography (EEG) to explore potential sensorimotor neuroplasticity underying stroke.

Conditions

  • Stroke
  • Stroke Rehabilitation

Interventions

DEVICE

continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS)

Standard 600-pulse continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) can inhibit the corticomotor excitability. The cTBS will be delivered with an intensity of 70% individual resting motor threshold (RMT) of the hand knob over the contralesional M1.

DEVICE

intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS)

Standard 600-pulse intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) can increase the corticomotor excitability. The iTBS will be delivered with an intensity of 70% individual resting motor threshold (RMT) of the hand knob over the contralesional M1.

DEVICE

Robot-assisted training

Fourier M2 upper limb rehabilitation robot (Fourier Intelligence Co. Ltd., Shanghai, China), will be used for upper limb proximal joints training. Fourier M2 upper limb rehab robot is an end-effector robot-assisted device. The device targets (1) flexion and extension of shoulder joint, (2) flexion and extension of elbow, (3) internal and external rotation of shoulder joint, and (4) abduction and adduction of shoulder joint, supported by tailored interactive TV games in the device.
