New therapy timing could unlock lasting language recovery for stroke survivors

NCT ID NCT05653466

First seen Jan 08, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether adjusting the timing of speech therapy sessions can help people with aphasia (trouble speaking after a stroke) remember words better and use them in daily life. About 32 adults with chronic aphasia will practice naming pictures using a computer program that adapts the schedule to each person. The goal is to improve long-term word recall and make it easier to talk in real situations.
