Clinical Trial: Acute Effects of Physiotherapy Interventions on Biceps Brachii Muscle Tissue Perfusion After Stroke

U.S., Oct. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07853859) titled 'Acute Effects of Physiotherapy Interventions on Biceps Brachii Muscle Tissue Perfusion After Stroke' on Sept. 26.

Brief Summary: This study aimed to investigate the acute effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), the Bobath concept, and virtual reality (VR)-based interventions on biceps brachii tissue perfusion in individuals with chronic stroke. In this randomized crossover study, participants received all three physiotherapy interventions in a randomized order. Each intervention lasted 10 minutes. Biceps brachii muscle oxygenation and local blood volume responses were assessed using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR...
