Elastography in Patients With Hemiplegia

May 4, 2024 updated by: Veysel Delen, MD, Sanliurfa Mehmet Akif Inan Education and Research Hospital

Evaluation of Shoulder Region With Share-Wave Ultrasound Elastography in Patients With Hemiplegia

In our study, we aimed to examine the muscles and tendons of the shoulder region on the plegic side of patients with hemiplegia by elastography and to investigate whether there is a relationship between the course of the disease and the course of the lesions that will occur in the shoulder.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

Patients over the age of 18 who apply to our clinic and have hemiplegia complaints will be evaluated. Patients' age, gender, occupation, habits, disease duration, upper extremity with complaints, dominant upper extremity, additional disease, weight and height values will be recorded. In the physical medicine and rehabilitation department examination of the patients, the patients will be evaluated with the brunnstrom staging used in hemiplegic patients. The elastography of the shoulder on the side with hemiplegia and the elastography of the shoulder on the side without complaints will be examined. Thus, the patient's side with the complaint will be checked by comparing the healthy side.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Shoulder elastography on the hemiplegic side of patients
Patients over the age of 18 who apply to our clinic and have hemiplegia complaints will be evaluated. Patients' age, gender, occupation, habits, disease duration, upper extremity with complaints, dominant upper extremity, additional disease, weight and height values will be recorded. In the physical medicine and rehabilitation department examination of the patients, the patients will be evaluated with the brunnstrom staging used in hemiplegic patients. The elastography of the shoulder on the side with hemiplegia and the elastography of the shoulder on the side without complaints will be examined. Thus, the patient's side with the complaint will be checked by comparing the healthy side.
Shoulder elastography on the non-hemiplegia side of patients
Patients over the age of 18 who apply to our clinic and have hemiplegia complaints will be evaluated. Patients' age, gender, occupation, habits, disease duration, upper extremity with complaints, dominant upper extremity, additional disease, weight and height values will be recorded. In the physical medicine and rehabilitation department examination of the patients, the patients will be evaluated with the brunnstrom staging used in hemiplegic patients. The elastography of the shoulder on the side with hemiplegia and the elastography of the shoulder on the side without complaints will be examined. Thus, the patient's side with the complaint will be checked by comparing the healthy side.

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Estimated)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 5, 2024

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
