Recruiting studies
- NCT06605014Recruiting
Body alignment after stroke or mini-stroke
This study looks at how a stroke or mini-stroke affects the body's natural movement and alignment (called somatic dysfunction). Researchers want to see if there are common patterns of tightness or imbalance after a stroke, which could help guide future treatments.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06657235Recruiting
Stroke recovery program to improve health after a stroke
This study tests a transitional care program for people who have had an ischemic stroke. It aims to help you manage risk factors and improve your health after leaving the hospital, using telemedicine visits.
Winchester, VirginiaAges 30 years+ - NCT07447804Recruiting
Diaphragm and Breathing Strength in Hemiplegia Patients
This study looks at how hemiplegia affects the diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) and your breathing strength. It aims to help guide rehabilitation after a stroke.
Istanbul, AtaşehirAges 18–80 - NCT07604181Recruiting
Telerehabilitation vs clinic therapy for stroke arm recovery
This trial compares two ways of helping stroke survivors regain arm and hand function: therapy done remotely online versus in-person at a clinic. Both use a specialized approach called constraint-induced movement therapy, which encourages use of the weaker arm. The study aims to see which method works better for people in the first 6 months after stroke.
Faisalabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–70 - NCT07614074Recruiting
Understanding Recovery from Coma and Unconsciousness
This study follows patients who have been in a coma (deep unconsciousness) for at least 24 hours due to a brain injury. Researchers will track how patients recover over time to better understand which factors help predict who will wake up and how well they'll recover.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06040255Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Steroid treatment for focal brain artery inflammation in children
This trial tests whether short-term steroids improve recovery for children who recently had a stroke or mini-stroke caused by inflammation of a brain artery. If you qualify, you would receive steroids and follow-up imaging to see if it helps prevent further damage.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 1–18 - NCT06383182Recruiting
Study of blood markers after stroke artery treatment
This study looks at how certain proteins in the blood change after a procedure to remove a large blockage in a brain artery. The goal is to better understand recovery after stroke treatment.
ShenyangAges 18–80 - NCT06534645Recruiting
STOP-stroke: Predicting recovery after a stroke
This study collects health data from people with a suspected stroke to improve predictions of recovery. Your participation helps researchers better understand how to treat strokes in the future.
ZurichAges Any age - NCT07616622Enrolling by invitation
Recovery Methods for Upper Arm Weakness After Stroke
This study compares two physical therapy approaches—Roods (a sensory-based technique) and PNF (a stretching and strengthening method)—to help improve arm function in people recovering from their first stroke. Both methods aim to help you regain strength and control in your upper arm and hand.
Faisalābad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT07294274Recruiting
Predicting depression risk after a stroke
This study creates a tool to predict if someone might develop depression after an ischemic stroke. It aims to help doctors identify and support patients who are at higher risk.
ChongqingAges Any age - NCT04130503Recruiting
Breathing device study after a recent ischemic stroke
This study looks at whether using a PAP breathing machine soon after an ischemic stroke helps sleep and recovery. It focuses on people who have moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea diagnosed around the time of their stroke.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06242366Recruiting
Transitional care program for stroke recovery
This trial tests a transitional care program for people recovering from a first-time stroke that caused weakness on one side of the body. The program is designed to help you manage your recovery at home after leaving the hospital.
Bang Kho Laem, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT06541691Recruiting
Aspirin for heart disease patients in polluted air
This study tests if different types of aspirin (coated or chewable) and a special schedule can help people with heart or blood vessel disease when they are exposed to air pollution. If you live in Tehran and have stable heart disease, you may be able to join.
Tehran, Tehran ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT06892886Recruiting
Virtual reality for arm rehab after stroke
This trial tests if immersive virtual reality can help people recover arm movement after a recent stroke. If you had a first stroke within the last month and still have arm weakness, this might be an option.
FerraraAges 18–80 - NCT07576166Recruiting
Breathing and Balance Training After Stroke
This study tests whether combining rhythmic breathing exercises with balance training can improve balance and trunk control in people recovering from stroke. You'll participate in structured exercises designed to help you regain stability and core strength.
Sargodha, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT06610994Recruiting
Vibration therapy for stroke recovery
This study tests if a short, local vibration treatment can help stroke patients with leg spasticity (tightness in the calf muscle) improve walking. If you have had a stroke and have mild to moderate spasticity in your lower leg, you may be able to join.
KirikkaleAges 45–75 - NCT05315726Recruiting
Vibration therapy to reduce stiffness after stroke
This trial studies whether regular muscle vibration can reduce post-stroke muscle stiffness and improve how the brain and nerves adapt. If you’re in the right stage after stroke, it may help improve arm and hand movement.
Chalon-sur-SaôneAges 18 years+ - NCT05283174Recruiting
Blood thinner use during stroke to predict outcomes
This study looks at how people doing well on certain blood thinners do when they have a stroke or bleeding while taking them. It will measure medication levels in your blood to understand stroke severity and recovery in the short and long term.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT07598487Enrolling by invitation
Physical Therapy Techniques for Stroke Recovery and Balance
This study compares two types of physical therapy to help people regain trunk control and balance after a stroke. Participants will receive either PNF (a hands-on technique using rhythmic movements) or NDT (another hands-on technique focusing on movement patterns) to improve stability.
Faisalabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–65 - NCT04321512Recruiting
Blood test study for people with heart or stroke problems
This study looks at a type of white blood cell (monocytes) in blood to understand differences in people with certain heart attacks, stable heart disease, or ischemic stroke. It may help researchers learn why these conditions happen and how the immune system may be involved.
Farmington, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06530927Recruiting
Blood clots and stroke risk study
This study looks at tiny blood clots and immune cell activity in people with or without a recent stroke. It aims to find markers that could predict stroke risk or help improve treatment.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07445204Enrolling by invitation
Electrical stimulation for swallowing after stroke
This trial tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation technique on neck muscles can help improve swallowing in people who recently had a stroke. It may be a good option if you are still having trouble swallowing after your stroke.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT06954610Recruiting
Heart Check for Stroke Risk in Atrial Fibrillation
This trial uses heart imaging to better understand stroke risk in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It may help doctors decide on the best treatment to prevent another stroke.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 458 recruiting acute ischemic stroke studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a acute ischemic stroke trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute ischemic stroke trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
