Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can improve recovery in people who have had a stroke and undergone a procedure to remove a blood clot. About 60 adults aged 18-80 with a specific type of stroke will receive either real or sham TMS sessions. Researchers will measure changes in brain damage, disability, and safety outcomes over the first few days.
