NCT ID NCT07669246
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at how stroke survivors with weakness on one side (hemiplegia) perceive internal body signals, like heartbeat, and whether that relates to their balance, touch sensation, and joint position sense. Researchers will assess 60 participants in a single session using questionnaires and simple physical tests. No treatment or follow-up is involved.

- If successful, this research could help design better rehabilitation programs that include body-awareness training for stroke survivors.
- What could go wrong
