Zapping the brain to help stroke survivors think again

NCT ID NCT04897334

Summary

This study is testing whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique, when combined with standard thinking-skills therapy, can help improve memory and thinking in people who have had a recent stroke. About 70 participants who are having trouble with thinking after a stroke will receive either the real stimulation or a pretend version during their rehab sessions. Researchers will measure changes in thinking skills right after treatment and for up to two years to see if the combination works better than therapy alone.
