ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Score of the 6-point Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at Visit 5 After Completion of the Course of Therapy for Both ArmsVisit 5 (67-71 Day).
The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is used to measure the degree of disability in patients who have had a stroke. Possible scores range from 0 (no symptoms at all) to 6 (dead) \[6 point scale: min value 0, max value 6, higher scores mean a worse outcome\].
SecondaryMean Score of the 15-item The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at Visit 5 After Completion of the Course of Therapy for Both ArmsVisit 5 (67-71 Day)
The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is a systematic assessment tool that provides a quantitative measure of stroke-related neurologic deficit. The NIHSS is a 15-item neurologic examination stroke scale used to evaluate the effect of acute cerebral infarction on the levels of consciousness, language, neglect, visual-field loss, extraocular movement, motor strength, ataxia, dysarthria, and sensory loss. Ratings for each item are scored with 3 to 5 grades with 0 as normal, and there is an allowance for untestable items. The individual scores from each item are summed in order to calculate a patient's total NIHSS score. The maximum possible score is 42 (severe stroke), with the minimum score being a 0 (no stroke symptoms).
SecondaryMean Score of the 10-item Barthel Index (BI) at Visit 5 After Completion of the Course of Therapy for Both ArmsTime frame: Visit 5 (67-71 Day)
The Barthel Index (BI) is a prominent measure that assesses an individual's ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL) independently, reflecting their mobility and functional capacity. BI evaluates ten specific activities: feeding, bathing, grooming, dressing, bowel control, bladder control, toileting, chair transfer, ambulation, and stair climbing. Each activity is weighted based on the level of assistance required, with scores assigned as follows: 10 (independent), 5 (some assistance), and 0 (dependent). The BI's scoring system favors mobility and continence, resulting in a total score ranging from 0 to 100, where a higher score indicates greater functional independence. The index is widely utilized for assessing functional disability, particularly in rehabilitation settings for stroke patients and individuals with neuromuscular or musculoskeletal disorders, as well as in oncology care.
SecondaryMean Score of the 21-item Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) at Visit 5 After Completion of the Course of Therapy for Both Arms.Visit 5 (67-71 Day)
The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) is a 21-item, self-report rating inventory that measures characteristic attitudes and symptoms of depression. Each item is scored 0 to 3 points for a total score range of 0 to 63. This range includes interpretation from 0-9 points (as normal condition) to over 30 points (as severe depression).
SecondaryMean Score of on the EQ-5D-3L PRO Measure (VAS) at Visit 5 After Completion of the Course of Therapy for Both Arms.Visit 5 (67-71 Day)
EQ-5D-3L is a concise, generic patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure of health consisting of five dimensions of health status (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression) and a visual analogue scale (VAS). In the study version was used EQ-5D-3L that contains 3 severity levels for each dimension. The EQ VAS records the participants's self-rated health on a vertical VAS where the endpoints are labelled 'The best health you can imagine' (maximum indicated as 100 scores on VAS) and 'The worst health you can imagine' (minimum indicated as 0 on VAS).
