Stroke recovery tests put under the microscope
NCT ID NCT05530525
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how well common tests measure physical function in people who have had a stroke. Researchers reviewed medical records of 50 stroke patients to check if these tests give consistent and accurate results over time. The goal was to improve how doctors track recovery, not to test a new treatment.
