Observational Study on Post-Stroke Sensory Reweighting

This observational study aims to understand how your body's sensory system (how you sense touch, balance, and movement) changes after an ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a blood clot). Researchers will track these changes over time and see how they relate to your walking ability and risk of falls. They will use diagnostic tests like Posturography (a test of balance), Walking Speed measurements, and an Instrumented Timed Up and Go test (a test of dynamic balance using wearable sensors). You might be eligible if you are 18 or older, have had your first ischemic stroke, and can give consent. The study is looking for 45 participants. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is an observational study, meaning researchers will watch and collect information without giving any specific treatments. It plans to enroll 45 participants.
What's involved
You will undergo diagnostic tests including Posturography, Walking Speed measurements, and an Instrumented Timed Up and Go test at 2, 4, and 6 months after your stroke. You will also keep a fall incident journal, and a research coordinator will contact you every two weeks to collect this data.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for at least 6 months after their stroke, with assessments at 2, 4, and 6 months.

AI-generated from the public study record. Only the study team can confirm whether you're eligible — confirm details with them before making decisions.
