Prospective Real-World Evidence Study of the IpsiHand® System in Adult Stroke Survivors

This study focuses on monitoring real-world customers who have been prescribed the IpsiHand® as part of their rehabilitation post-stroke. This study aims to evaluate their progress over time, assessing motor recovery, functional independence in activities of daily living (ADLs), caregiver burden, and health economic outcomes.

Key information

About this study

IpsiHand® is an FDA-authorized, non-invasive, BCI-based device that is indicated for use in chronic stroke patients (≥ 6 months post stroke) age 18 or older undergoing stroke rehabilitation, to facilitate muscle re-education and for maintaining or increasing range of motion in the upper extremity. Through utilization of EEG signals from the unaffected side of the brain, the device enables stroke survivors to control a robotic hand orthosis, facilitating functional reorganization of the brain and improved motor recovery.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Adult age 18-85 years.
  • Diagnosis of stroke six or more months prior with upper extremity weakness.
  • Has received an IpsiHand® system as a commercial customer for stroke rehabilitation.

Exclusion criteria

  • Severe cognitive impairment that would impede utilization of IpsiHand®
  • Any contraindications to IpsiHand® device use
  • Inability to comprehend English

Treatment and study plan

IpsiHand

Device

IpsiHand is a therapeutic device that uses a brain-computer interface system which detects neural signals associated with motor intent and translates them into assisted hand movements in individuals with upper extremity impairment following a stroke.

Other names: IpsiHand Therapy, BCI Therapy

Primary outcomes

  1. Fugl-Meyer - Upper Extremity (FM-UE) , Manual Long Form

    Time frame: Baseline visit and at 4-week, 8-week, 12-week, 16-week, 20-week, 24-week, 28-week, 32-week, 36-week, 12-months, and 24 months of IpsiHand® device use, or until completion of IpsiHand® device use if occurring prior to 24 months.

    Valid assessment tool of upper extremity motor function in persons chronic stroke with moderate to severe deficits. Lowest score 0, highest score 66.

Secondary outcomes

  1. The Barthel Index

    Time frame: Baseline visit and at 4-week, 8-week, 12-week, 16-week, 20-week, 24-week, 28-week, 32-week, 36-week, 12-months, and 24 months of IpsiHand® device use, or until completion of IpsiHand® device use if occurring prior to 24 months.

    Assessment tool that measures a person's functional independence in activities of daily living and self-care.

  2. Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale (ZBI)

    Time frame: Baseline Visit, 12-Week, 24-Week, 36 Week, 12-Months, and 24-Months post-use of IpsiHand Device or at time of completion of IpsiHand device use if occurring prior to 24-Months.

    Widely used questionnaire designed to assess the level of burden experienced by caregivers.

  3. Patient Specific Functional Scale (PSFS)

    Time frame: Baseline visit and at 4-week, 8-week, 12-week, 16-week, 20-week, 24-week, 28-week, 32-week, 36-week, 12-months, and 24 months of IpsiHand® device use, or until completion of IpsiHand® device use if occurring prior to 24 months.

    patient-reported outcome measure used to assess an individual's ability to perform specific functional activities that are important to them. It is commonly used in rehabilitation and clinical settings to track progress over time in response to treatment.

  4. Euro-QOL5D5L

    Time frame: Baseline Visit, 12-Week, 24-Week, 36 Week, 12-Months, and 24-Months post-use of IpsiHand Device or at time of completion of IpsiHand device use if occurring prior to 24-Months.

    Patient-reported outcome measure used to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) across different diseases and treatments. It is widely used in clinical research, health economics, and healthcare decision-making to quantify the impact of health conditions and interventions on daily living
