CHRONIC STROKE

This study tests whether adding mental imagery training to robotic hand exercises improves arm and hand function in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. Forty participants will receive either robotic hand training alone or combined with mental imagery over 7 weeks. The …

This study tests a therapy where chronic stroke patients watch videos of hand and arm activities, then practice those movements. Researchers want to see if watching one-handed or two-handed actions works better for improving arm function, daily living skills, and quality of life.…

This study tests whether watching and copying hand movements during video calls can improve arm function, daily activities, and quality of life in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. Thirty participants will be assigned to either this video-based therapy or standard in…

This study tests a low-intensity brain stimulation method called kTMP to help people who had a stroke at least 12 months ago improve arm and hand movement. About 12 adults aged 18-80 with moderate arm weakness will receive kTMP alongside motor rehabilitation. The goal is to see i…

This study tests whether combining brain stimulation (rTMS) with a brain-computer interface can help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago regain arm movement. The brain-computer interface translates thoughts of moving into electrical muscle stimulation. The trial will e…

This pilot study tests a device called BreEStim that uses breathing to control electrical stimulation of hand muscles. Four people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago and have moderate hand tightness will try one session. The goal is to see if it reduces finger stiffness and i…

This early study tests a device called BreEStim, which uses breathing to control mild electrical stimulation, to see if it can reduce finger stiffness and improve hand function in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. Only 4 participants will receive a single 10-20 minut…

This study is testing whether a device that sends small electrical pulses to leg muscles can help people with chronic stroke improve their balance and walking. Twenty participants will be exposed to slip- and trip-like disturbances on a treadmill, with and without the stimulation…

This study compares Swiss ball exercises versus kinesthetic training to see which better improves balance and mobility in people who had a stroke at least six months ago. Thirty-six participants aged 45-65 will do supervised exercises for 8 weeks. Balance and movement will be mea…

This study tests whether a new AI-powered algorithm can improve how people with chronic arm weakness from a stroke control a robotic arm brace. Participants will use both the standard control method and the experimental algorithm while moving blocks. The goal is to see if the new…

This study tests whether a wearable robotic arm device called MyoPro, combined with motor learning therapy, can improve arm function in people who had a stroke at least six months ago and have severe arm weakness. The device reads muscle signals to help move the arm. Sixty partic…

This study tests whether a personalized form of brain stimulation (tDCS) can help people who had a stroke more than 3 months ago regain arm movement. Researchers will use brain scans to tailor the stimulation to each person and measure changes in brain connectivity and motor func…

This study tests whether a training program that combines touch (somatosensory) and movement (motor) exercises can improve arm function better than either type of training alone. Researchers will enroll 153 people who have had a stroke at least 6 months ago and have some arm weak…

This study tests whether psilocybin, a psychedelic substance, is safe for people who had a stroke at least a year ago. Researchers will monitor blood pressure and other vital signs in 20 participants. The goal is to see if psilocybin can help with lingering symptoms like weakness…

This study compares two rehabilitation methods—Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) and Bilateral Training—both combined with electrical stimulation, to see which better improves hand function and reduces muscle tightness in people with chronic stroke. About 94 adults who h…

This pilot study tests whether a non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve through the ear can help people with chronic aphasia (trouble finding words) after a stroke. Thirty-six participants will use the device at home while doing computer-based speech therapy for six …

This study tests whether using a home-based electrical stimulation device, combined with specific exercises, can help people with chronic stroke improve their walking, balance, and mobility. Thirty adults who had a stroke more than six months ago will use the device during traini…

This study tests whether robot-assisted gait training can improve thigh muscle thickness, balance, and walking in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. Thirty participants will receive either robot-assisted or conventional walking training for 6 weeks. Researchers will m…

This study looks at whether nutritional status, measured by the CONUT score, is linked to balance and daily function in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. Researchers will assess balance, muscle thickness, and bone density in 47 adults. The goal is to better understan…
