NCT ID NCT07482501
First seen Mar 31, 2026 · Last updated Apr 26, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to standard rehab can improve heart rate control, arm strength, and quality of life in stroke survivors. About 44 adults aged 35-80 who had a stroke at least 3 months ago will receive either rTMS or a sham treatment alongside their usual therapy for 4 weeks. The goal is to see if rTMS can help the body's automatic nervous system work better after a stroke.
