Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is an experimental, observational, prospective study designed to develop medical knowledge.

The main objective of the study was to identify clinically significant, easily interpretable, quantitative indices of fatigue-related gait pattern changes in post-stroke hemiplegic patients.

This study is part of a usual framework of management of post-stroke hemiplegic patients with additional data collection, via the use of inertial measurement units, considered here as non-interventional.

To achieve this identification, 2 6-minute walk tests will be performed for each patient at the beginning and end of the same day. Patient-perceived fatigue will be recorded by the Borg scale every minute during the 6-minute test. The level of activity during the rehabilitation day is also part of the data collected (number of hours of physical and non-physical activity). At the end of the second 6-minute test, the patient's participation in the study ends.

In addition to the inertial measurement, two scores will be collected to assess the correlation between fatigability and the level of anxiety/depression and stroke severity :

  • National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)

  • Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD)

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. To assess the correlation between fatigability and the level of anxiety/depression [During the one day of patient assessment. Assessed only once for each patient before performing the first 6-minute test.]

      Questionnaire Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HAD) The Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HAD) questionnaire is used to screen for anxiety and depressive disorders. It includes 14 items rated from 0 to 3. Seven questions relate to anxiety (total A) and seven others to the depressive dimension (total D), thus making it possible to obtain two scores (maximum score for each score: 21). A score close to 0 means no anxiety symptoms a score close to 11 and above indicates anxiety symptoms. This scale is validated in French.

    2. To assess the correlation between fatigability and stroke severity [During the one day of patient assessment. Assessed only once for each patient before performing the first 6-minute test.]

      National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is a 15-item impairment rating scale designed to assess the neurological consequences and degree of recovery of a stroke patient. Total scores on the NIHSS range from 0 to 42, with higher values reflecting more severe brain damage.
