Recruiting studies
- NCT05630586RecruitingPhase 2

This trial tests whether starting mobilization earlier after a stroke procedure improves recovery. It may help patients get moving sooner and regain function faster.
TampereAges 18 years+ - NCT07828210RecruitingPhase 4
Mild to moderate stroke recovery study

Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–80 - NCT07826832Recruiting
One-hand versus two-hand training for stroke recovery
This study compares learning arm movements with one hand versus both hands to see which method helps stroke patients recover better. It may help you improve arm function after a stroke.
Yvoir, NamurAges 40–90 - NCT07822633Recruiting
Arm movement learning after stroke
This trial looks at how the brain and arm work together after a stroke, comparing people who have had a recent stroke, people who had a stroke a while ago, and healthy people. It involves three sessions of movement tasks and may include an MRI scan. It could help understand how to improve therapy for stroke recovery.
Yvoir, NamurAges 40–90 - NCT06511089RecruitingPhase 3
Carotid artery stenting during stroke clot removal
This trial tests whether placing a stent in a narrowed carotid artery during a procedure to remove a stroke clot improves outcomes. If you have a stroke with a blocked large artery and significant carotid narrowing, this study may be relevant to you.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT07627399Recruiting
Best Care Practices for Stroke in Regular Hospital Units
This study tests whether following best-practice guidelines for stroke care in regular hospital units (rather than specialized stroke centers) helps patients recover better. Researchers will track how well patients do when they receive standardized stroke care protocols.
Antequera, MálagaAges 18 years+ - NCT06741332Recruiting
AI software to speed up stroke clot removal referrals
This trial tests whether a special AI software can help doctors speed up the process of referring patients with acute stroke for a procedure that removes a blood clot (thrombectomy). If you have stroke symptoms and a recent CT scan, the AI may help identify if you could benefit from this treatment.
Granollers, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06753006Recruiting
Research on stroke rehabilitation for arm weakness
This study tests a new rehabilitation program for people who have had a stroke within the last 6 months. It focuses on improving arm weakness using special therapy techniques.
Samara, Samara OblastAges 18–80 - NCT04956185Recruiting
Collecting hospital data from people with stroke
This study collects information from people admitted to the stroke care team or neurology during their hospital stay. It may help improve stroke care by understanding patient conditions and hospital experiences.
Ghent, FlandersAges Any age - NCT07411534Enrolling by invitation
Individual vs. co-treatment for stroke rehabilitation
This trial compares two ways of doing physical and occupational therapy after a stroke: having separate sessions (individual) or one session with both therapists at the same time (co-treatment). The goal is to see which approach helps patients get better faster.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07379190RecruitingPhase 3
Tirofiban for late window stroke due to artery plaque
This trial tests whether a drug called tirofiban can help people who had a stroke more than 24 hours ago but within 7 days. It is for strokes caused by a buildup of plaque in a large brain artery, and uses a special MRI to confirm the cause.
Weifang, China/Shandong ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT07355881Recruiting
New test to predict early death after stroke
This study looks at whether a new test (mSOAR) can help doctors predict the risk of early death in people who have had a stroke. It may help guide treatment decisions soon after a stroke.
SohagAges Any age - NCT07347665Recruiting
Endovascular therapy for M2 segment stroke
This study tests whether a minimally invasive procedure to remove a blood clot from a specific branch of a brain artery (the M2 segment) helps people recover from a stroke better than standard care alone. It is for people who have had a moderate to severe stroke within the past 24 hours and could not get clot-dissolving medicine or it didn't work.
Nishinomiya, HyōgoAges 18–84 - NCT07273201Recruiting
Comparing two arm exercises after stroke
This study tests two different types of arm exercises to see which one helps improve arm function better during early stroke recovery. It is for people who recently had a stroke on one side of their brain and are in the early stages of recovery.
CairoAges 50–60 - NCT07204067Recruiting
Mirror therapy for hand recovery after recent stroke
This study tests whether mirror therapy—a simple exercise where you watch your unaffected hand move in a mirror to trick your brain—can help improve hand function after a recent stroke. It is for people who have had a stroke within the last month and have weakness on one side of their body.
Malakand, KPKAges 40–55 - NCT07167550RecruitingPhase 3
Testing Dimephosphon for recent ischemic stroke recovery
This study tests an investigational drug called Dimephosphon to see if it helps people recover from a recent ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a clot). It is for adults ages 35–80 whose symptoms began 24 to 72 hours ago and who have not received clot-busting treatments.
Vsevolozhsk, Leningradskaya Oblast'Ages 35–80 - NCT06943885Recruiting
Mobile Stroke Unit vs Standard Ambulance for Stroke
This study compares a special ambulance equipped with a CT scanner and video link to stroke doctors (mobile stroke unit) versus standard emergency services for people having a stroke. It tests whether getting faster, specialized care on the way to the hospital improves recovery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07065929Recruiting
Personalized nutrition for early stroke recovery
This study tests whether starting a personalized nutrition plan early after a stroke can help improve recovery and reduce the risk of dying within one month. You may be able to join if you were just hospitalized for a stroke.
Chesnay, YvelinesAges 18 years+ - NCT06984965Recruiting
Using EEG to Distinguish Types of Stroke
This study uses an EEG (a cap that records brain waves) to help tell the difference between two types of stroke: ischemic (caused by a clot) and hemorrhagic (caused by bleeding). It may help doctors choose the right treatment faster for patients who have a stroke.
