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

Samara, Samara OblastAges 18–80 - NCT06828679Recruiting
AI system to improve arm recovery after stroke
This trial tests whether an AI-powered system can help improve arm movement in people who had a stroke 1 to 6 months ago. It uses electrical stimulation to activate muscles and may lead to better recovery.
Hong Kong, Sha TinAges 65–80 - 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+ - 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.
Asyut, Asyut GovernorateAges 18–80 - NCT07052045Recruiting
One-stop emergency care for fast stroke treatment
This trial tests a streamlined approach to quickly start endovascular therapy for people having a severe ischemic stroke caused by a blocked large or medium brain artery. It aims to reduce delays and improve recovery by coordinating the care team as soon as you arrive at the hospital.
NurembergAges 18 years+ - NCT07065929Recruiting
Early personalized nutrition after stroke to improve survival
This study tests whether giving stroke patients a personalized nutrition plan soon after their stroke can reduce the risk of dying within one month. The goal is to see if special dietary support can help recovery.
Chesnay, YvelinesAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07204067Recruiting
Mirror therapy for hand recovery after recent stroke
