RECRUITING

High vs Low-frequency of High-intensity Training in Chronic Stroke

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the potential role of training frequency on locomotor outcomes following high-intensity gait training and provision of a home walking program.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years to 85 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Unilateral deficits following stroke \> 6 months prior; however individuals \> 4 months post-stroke are eligible for consenting, but final eligibility and potential enrollment will not occur until \> 6 months
  2. * Age 18-85
  3. * Weight \< 350 pounds
  4. * Able to follow 3-step commands
  5. * Able to ambulate with self-selected gait speeds between 0.10-1.0 m/s without physical assistance, but with below knee bracing and/or assistive device as needed
  6. * Lower extremity Fugl-Meyer \< 34
  7. * Medical clearance to participate
  1. * Evidence of cerebellar ataxia
  2. * Uncontrolled cardiopulmonary or metabolic disease that limits exercise participation, active heterotopic ossification, recurrent history of lower extremity fractures, previous orthopedic or other peripheral or central neurologic injury that may impair locomotor activities such that, in the judgement of the PI, could compromise the safety of the participant, limit the ability to complete the study, or compromise the objectives of the study.
  3. * Currently participating in other physical therapy
  4. * \>50 units of Botox in the lower extremity OR in the lower extremity, but above the knee if the participant wears an ankle-foot-orthosis (AFO) within the past three months
