Comparison of Therapeutic Effect Between Speech Rehabilitation Program and Speech Therapy in Stroke Patients With Aphasia

April 11, 2024 updated by: Yang, Seung Nam, Korea University Guro Hospital

Comparison of Therapeutic Effect and Brain Activity According to Language Rehabilitation Program and Language Therapy in Patients With Speech Impairment After Stroke. Prospective, Randomized, Single-blind, Exploratory Clinical Study

Our study will provide precise and intensive speech rehabilitation treatment program to patients with speech disorders after stroke, and compare clinical evaluations with the conventional speech therapy patient group.

Clinical evaluation tools will be performed before and after the treatment for all patients

  • K-Western Aphasia Battery for aphasia assessment tools
  • Cerebral blood flow changes with near-infrared spectroscopy

Study Overview

Detailed Description

During the initial evaluation of this study, the patient's gender, age, and onset of stroke lesion occurrence are collected and a cognitive evaluation is performed. In addition, the K-Western Aphasia Battery for aphasia assessment tools(K-WAB) and Cerebral blood flow changes with near-infrared spectroscopy will be performed. All participants will be assigned to a test group or control group. In addition to the existing speech rehabilitation treatment, the test group will receive a speech rehabilitation program, and the control group will receive the same treatment as the existing speech rehabilitation treatment.

After treatment is completed, the K-WAB test and near-infrared spectroscopy will be performed again.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Language therapy group with language rehabilitation program
In addition to 5-session conventional language therapy, we provide a 5-session language rehabilitation program using an AI-based computerized cognitive and language training program. A cognitive evaluation is conducted before starting treatment, and K-Western Aphasia Battery and Functional Near infrared spectroscopy are performed before and after the treatment.
This program is an AI-based computerized cognitive and language training program.
Conventional language rahabilitation therapy will apply for all participants with speech impairement
Active Comparator: Conventional language therapy group
We provide a 10-session conventional language therapy. A cognitive evaluation is conducted before starting treatment, and K-Western Aphasia Battery and Functional Near infrared spectroscopy are performed before and after the treatment.
Conventional language rahabilitation therapy will apply for all participants with speech impairement
