Summary
This study is to investigate the combined effects of repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) and Augmented Reality (AR) intervention on cortical excitability, balance, gait, activity in individuals with stroke. Forty participants will be recruited in this study. They will be allocated to four group: rTMS and AR group (10), sham rTMS and AR group (10), AR group (10), and conventional physiotherapy group (10).
Detailed description
Participants will be randomized allocated to four groups: rTMS and AR group, sham rTMS and AR group, AR group ,and conventional physiotherapy group in current study. All participants underwent four weeks, 3 sessions per week, and 60 minutes per session training program. Motor evoked potential (MEP), Time up go test (TUG), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Multi-directional Reach Test (MDRT),The Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke Patients (PASS), and Taiwanese Depression Questionnaires (TDQ) will be assessed before and after intervention in all participants.
Conditions
Interventions
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BEHAVIORAL | rTMS and AR | rTMS performs 1Hz,15 minutes real rTMS. AR intervention contains weight-shift exercise, strengthening of lower limb and balance training for 45 minutes. |
| BEHAVIORAL | Sham rTMS and AR | Sham rTMS applies 1Hz, 15 minutes sham rTMS. AR intervention includes weight-shift exercise, strengthening of lower limb and balance training for 45 minutes. |
| BEHAVIORAL | AR | AR intervention contains weight-shift exercise, strengthening of lower limb and balance training for 60 minutes. |
| BEHAVIORAL | Conventional physiotherapy | Conventional physiotherapy includes rolling, sitting, balance exercise, standing, overground walking, facilitation of the paretic limbs, and so on for 60 minutes. |
