NCT ID NCT07206147
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether a structured strength training program (called FaStEx) can reduce fatigue in people who have had a stroke. Sixteen participants will either do strength training twice a week plus home exercise, or just home exercise alone, for eight weeks. The main goal is to see if the program is practical and acceptable, and to measure changes in fatigue, leg strength, and balance confidence.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, drug-free way to reduce fatigue after a stroke.
What could go wrong
This is a very small feasibility study (16 people) that hasn't started yet. It's designed to test whether the approach is practical, not whether it works. Results may not apply to everyone.
