E-Rehabilitation: Aerobic Resistance Training for Stroke Survivors

NCT02938000 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: IRB # 10926
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 3
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

This pilot study intends to evaluate an online exercise video rehabilitation program for stroke survivors with moderate disability compared to usual care. The intervention videos combine aerobic and resistance training using a latex resistance band, Thera band® elastic band, specifically designed for rehabilitation. This study will aim to show that for patients suffering acute ischemic stroke resulting in disability, at-home physical therapy with aerobic exercise videos will improve depression level and aerobic capacity more than usual care.

Conditions

Stroke; Hemiplegia

Keywords

aerobic training; stroke; exercise; stroke recovery

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• VO2: aerobic capacity measurement with peak VO2 using 6 minute walk test

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Berg Balance Score
