About this trial

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of early rehabilitation treatment by electroencephalographic neurofeedback on upper limb motor function after stroke.

Researchers will compare :

Interventional group: electroencephalographic neurofeedback + traditional reference rehabilitation programme Control group: SHAM electroencephalographic neurofeedback + traditional reference rehabilitation programme

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Unilateral ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke

Adult (18-80 years), both sexes

Stroke < 3 weeks

Upper limb deficit defined by Shoulder Abduction Finger Extension score <5 measured during the 7 days following stroke; i.e., patients predicted to have incomplete recovery

Disqualifiers

Ischemic or hemorrhagic brain stem and/or cerebellum involvement

Multiple strokes

Stroke < 1 week; in order not to be deleterious by starting active rehabilitation too early after immediate stroke

Aphasia with major comprehension impairment
