Zapping the brain to help stroke survivors speak again
NCT ID NCT05303649
First seen Apr 03, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation method called theta burst stimulation (TBS) can improve language recovery in people who have trouble speaking after a stroke. 45 adults with non-fluent aphasia will receive either real TBS (targeting the left or right brain) or a sham (fake) stimulation, followed by speech therapy for 3 weeks. Researchers will measure naming, fluency, and communication skills before, after, and 3 months later to see if TBS boosts the effects of standard therapy.
