Prefrontal Brain Activity and ECG Patterns in Stroke and Healthy Adults
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
This observational study will evaluate brain activity and heart rhythm patterns in people with and without stroke. Brain activity will be measured using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and electroencephalography (EEG), and cardiac activity will be measured using electrocardiography (ECG). The goal is to characterize differences in prefrontal brain activation and ECG features between stroke patients and healthy adults
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Resting-State Prefrontal EEG Activity — Single assessment at one visit (approximately 30-minute session).
Quantitative characteristics of resting-state electroencephalographic (EEG) activity recorded from the prefrontal cortex (Fp1, Fp2, F7, F8) using a 10-20 electrode placement system during 10 minutes of eyes-closed rest. EEG is obtained once for each participant in one of three groups (intracerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, healthy adults) within a 30-minute session including approximately 10 minutes of preparation, 10 minutes of recording, and 10 minutes of completion procedures. - Resting-State Prefrontal fNIRS Oxygenation — Single assessment at one visit (approximately 30-minute session).
Changes in oxy-hemoglobin and deoxy-hemoglobin concentrations in the prefrontal cortex (corresponding to Fp1, Fp2, F7, F8) measured by functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) during 10 minutes of eyes-closed rest. fNIRS is performed once for each participant in the same 30-minute session (about 10 minutes preparation, 10 minutes recording, 10 minutes completion) in one of the three groups. - Resting-State Electrocardiographic Parameters — Single assessment at one visit (approximately 30-minute session).
Electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics recorded for 10 minutes during eyes-closed rest, using electrodes attached to the ears and both wrists, including heart rate, rhythm, and time- and frequency-domain indices of heart rate variability. ECG is measured once for each participant during the same 30-minute session (around 10 minutes preparation, 10 minutes recording, 10 minutes completion) in one of the three groups.
