Using video feedback to improve walking rehabilitation after a stroke
Videographic Feedback and Walk Rehabilitation in Post-Cerebrovascular Accident
NA · Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice · NCT05024981
This study tests if using video feedback can help people who have had a stroke walk better and regain their independence compared to traditional rehab methods.

What this trial studies
This study investigates the effects of videographic feedback on walking rehabilitation in patients who have experienced a cerebrovascular accident (stroke). Participants will be filmed while walking, and later, the video will be analyzed together with the patient to provide delayed feedback on their performance. The goal is to enhance walking speed and autonomy by separating the motor activity from correction instructions. Two groups will be compared: one receiving videographic feedback and another undergoing classic rehabilitation methods.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals hospitalized for a first or recent stroke who can walk at least 10 meters without human assistance.
Not a fit: Patients with severe cognitive or communication disorders, or those with other conditions affecting gait, may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could significantly improve walking speed and overall rehabilitation outcomes for stroke patients.
How similar studies have performed: While the specific approach of using videographic feedback is novel, similar rehabilitation techniques have shown promise in improving patient outcomes in other studies.
