Prospective Longitudinal Study: Sensory Deficits in the Upper Limb After Stroke.
Data Collection
Collected from today forward - ProspectiveBrain Diseases+4
+ Cardiovascular Diseases
+ Central Nervous System Diseases
Case-Only
Examining characteristics of individuals with a disease in order to identify genetic or environmental factors contributing to the condition.Summary
Study start date: October 1, 2012
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.The overall aim of the project is to gain insight in sensory deficits and recovery patterns in the upper limb post stroke and its association with brain lesion localisation. Furthermore, the investigators will identify associations of deficits in sensory modalities with upper limb impairments, activities and participation at different time points after stroke. Identification of the sensory deficits, along with further insights in their relation with objective neurophysiological and neuroanatomical measures will contribute to the amelioration of goal-setting for the rehabilitation of upper extremity function after stroke. These functions are indispensable during several daily activities as well in different sports and leisure activities. This project is an important step towards a better delineating of treatment interventions for the upper limb and to a better guiding of individual needs for post-stroke treatment in the future.
