Inpatient Stroke Recovery Using Sensors
Sponsored by Shirley Ryan AbilityLab
About this study
This observational trial seeks to assess the feasibility of using non-invasive, portable, real-time body-worn sensors to continuously monitor, quantify, and interpret recovery during inpatient treatment of stroke
OBJECTIVES: Aim 1: Assess the feasibility of continuous long-term monitoring of inpatients with stroke using wearable sensors. The investigators will obtain quantitative health data from research-grade, wireless, wearable sensors on individuals with subacute and chronic stroke in the clinical setting, as well as healthy controls. The investigators will specifically check for variability in device data, as well as consistency and periodicity of sensor readings across the clinical study period. The investigators will analyze test-retest reliability and inter-rater reliability of using the wearable sensor technology for clinical and monitoring applications. Furthermore, The investigators will determine whether the sensors can distinguish biometric and activity characteristics between healt…

Only the research team can confirm whether you qualify. The intake questionnaire is the best way to find out.
Completing a questionnaire on Clinably does not enroll you in a clinical trial or confirm your eligibility. Only the research team can determine whether you qualify to participate. These results are based on the information you provide and are intended to help you start a conversation with the research team.
