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
