App aims to unlock words after stroke
NCT ID NCT07570264
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests if a digital app called LEXURE can improve language skills in people who have trouble speaking after a stroke (aphasia). About 116 adults who had a stroke at least 3 months ago will either use the app or do workbook exercises. The goal is to see if the app helps them speak better after 10 weeks.
