Zapping the brain to boost stroke recovery: new study explores how it works

NCT ID NCT07433972

First seen Feb 28, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study looks at how a gentle electrical current applied to the scalp (called transcranial electrical stimulation) changes blood flow in the brains of people who have had a stroke. Researchers will combine this stimulation with physical therapy and walking exercises in 60 adults aged 18 to 80 who are at least 2 weeks past their first stroke. The goal is to understand how the brain responds, not to test a cure or treatment.
