NCT ID NCT06769672
First seen Feb 21, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This study tests whether combining a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS) with special training that challenges both walking and thinking can help stroke survivors improve their ability to do two things at once. Researchers will measure walking speed, mental performance, and brain activity in 72 participants who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. The goal is to find a better way to reduce the interference between movement and thinking after a stroke.
