Testing changes in smell and taste after recent stroke
This study looks at how smell and taste may change after a new stroke, especially in the first few days. It may help doctors better understand and monitor symptoms related to eating and swallowing after stroke.

Anti-clotting treatment study in stroke patients with small brain bleeds
This trial looks at how anti-clotting medicines affect small blood vessel bleeds in the brain (cerebral microbleeds) and larger bleeding in the skull after an ischemic stroke. It may help doctors choose safer prevention medicines for people who already have these small bleeds seen on brain MRI.
ShenyangAges 18 years+ - NCT04118790Recruiting
MRI study of brain microstructure after stroke
This study uses detailed brain MRI scans to learn how brain tissue changes after stroke or a TIA (a brief stroke-like event). It may help researchers better understand brain recovery and improve future care.
Copenhagen, København NVAges 18 years+ - NCT05260125RecruitingPhase 4
Ultrasound-guided shoulder nerve block for stroke pain
This trial compares two ways to deliver a shoulder nerve block to relieve long-lasting shoulder pain after stroke: one guided by ultrasound and one without. It may help if your stroke-related shoulder pain has lasted at least a few months and you may benefit from a targeted pain-relief injection.
BoluAges 25–75 - NCT06113380Recruiting
Robot arm therapy for stroke recovery
This trial tests if a robot can help people recovering from a first stroke improve arm and hand movement. It compares robot-assisted therapy to standard rehabilitation exercises.
TaipeiAges 20–85 - NCT06244914Recruiting
Combined brain stimulation for recovery after recent stroke
This trial tests if combining two kinds of gentle brain stimulation can help people recover better after a recent stroke. It's for people who had a clot-caused stroke in the upper part of the brain and still have some weakness on one side.
Tainan, TainanAges 18 years+ - NCT06278259Recruiting
Exercise program for stroke recovery in seniors
This trial tests if a home-based exercise program combining aerobic and Baduanjin (a gentle Chinese exercise) can help older adults recover after a stroke. It's designed for people aged 65 or older who are medically stable.
Cairo, DokkiAges 65–75 - NCT06500611Recruiting
Sensory balance exercises for stroke recovery
This trial tests if combining sensory integration and vestibular exercises helps improve balance in people who have had a stroke and also have dizziness or balance problems. It may help you walk better and feel steadier.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–65 - NCT06653946RecruitingPhase 4
Predicting bleeding after stroke treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation
This trial looks at why some patients with a first-time stroke caused by atrial fibrillation experience bleeding in the brain after receiving clot-busting medication. It aims to find factors that predict this bleeding, which could help doctors choose safer treatments in the future.
Kafr ash ShaykhAges 18–75 - NCT06945185Recruiting
Motor imagery training for arm strength after stroke
This trial tests if imagining arm movements (motor imagery training) can help improve arm strength in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It is a non-drug, mental practice approach that may help your brain relearn movement.
IslamabadAges 45 years+ - NCT03149705Recruiting
Study group of adults with ischemic stroke
This study looks at adults who have had an ischemic stroke confirmed on MRI and a blockage in a major brain artery. Researchers want to understand stroke care in people who can receive standard clot-busting treatment (thrombolysis) and/or clot removal (thrombectomy).
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT07432204Recruiting
Therapeutic music listening after stroke
This trial tests whether listening to music can help reduce anxiety and depression in people who have had a stroke within the past 3 months. It is designed for those who are experiencing significant emotional distress after their stroke.
PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT07641790Recruiting
Vibration Devices to Improve Arm Movement After Stroke
This study tests whether wearing small vibrating devices on your arm can help improve movement and function in the arm weakened by stroke. The vibrations may help retrain your brain and muscles to work together better during the recovery period.
Faisalābad, Punjab ProvinceAges 30–60 - 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+ - NCT07220005Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for stroke recovery
This study tests a gentle sound wave therapy (focused ultrasound) to see if it can help improve arm movement in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It aims to find the best settings for this treatment.
