Use of Intensive Visual Stimulation Through Video Therapy to Enhance Lower Limb Motor Recovery After Stroke (SIVIMI). A Single-Center Pilot Study Using a Single-Case Experimental Design (SCED)
This pilot study evaluates video therapy for lower limb motor recovery after stroke, an approach remains insufficiently documented.
This single-center pilot study uses a Single-Case Experimental Design (SCED) to evaluate the effects of intensive video therapy combined with conventional rehabilitation in patients with subacute or chronic post-stroke hemiparesis. Twelve participants will be included and allocated to different baseline durations according to a multiple-baseline SCED design.
The primary outcome is functional mobility, assessed using the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, measured repeatedly throughout baseline, intervention, and follow-up phases.
Inclusion: - First or recurrent hemispheric ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke in the subacute or chronic phase (from 1 month to 1 year post-stroke); Currently receiving rehabilitation care in a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM\&R) department; Able to walk 3 meters back and forth, with or without an assistive device; Provided informed consent, signed jointly with the investigator.
Exclusion: Severe general disabling medical conditions; Associated cerebellar syndrome; Major comprehension disorders, psychiatric illness, or cognitive impairments that could interfere with study participation; - Severe hemispatial neglect; Severe spasticity impairing proper positioning (Modified Ashworth Scale > 3); Participants under full legal guardianship (tutorship); Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
