Recruiting NA Stroke

New treatment option for Stroke

Official title fNIRS-Driven Visual Feedback Training to Restore Walking After Stroke

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07014891

What this study is testing

What it's testing
The objective of this clinical trial is to investigate whether intelligent visual feedback-based lower limb motor control training is more effective than conventional rehabilitation training in promoting walking ability recovery among stroke patients with hemiplegia. The trial aims to address the primary question of the impact of intelligent visual feedback motor control training on the walking function of stroke patients with hemiplegia, and uses three-dimensional gait analysis for precise quantitative evaluation of therapeutic effects.
