Taping and swallowing exercises for stroke patients with swallowing difficulty
This trial tests whether kinesiology taping (a special tape placed on the skin) combined with swallowing exercises can help people who have had a stroke and have trouble swallowing. It may improve muscle thickness and swallowing function.
Istanbul, bahçelievlerAges 50–80 - NCT07014891Recruiting
Visual feedback training to help walking after stroke
This study uses a special brain-scanning technique to guide video feedback training for people who have had a stroke, aiming to improve walking ability. It is for those who can move their legs a little and understand instructions.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT07014696Recruiting
Taping and exercise for hand function after stroke
This trial tests two rehabilitation methods - special exercise (PNF) and elastic taping - to see which one helps improve hand function in people who have weakness on one side of the body after a stroke. The goal is to find a better way to regain hand movement and daily use.
Istanbul, BahçeşirAges 18 years+ - NCT07016295Recruiting
Monitoring Arm Recovery After Stroke (MARS)
This study tracks how well your arm recovers after a stroke. You'll be monitored as you go through your usual rehab, and the goal is to better understand arm recovery patterns.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07014501Recruiting
Stroke recovery and trach tube removal at different altitudes
This trial studies how well stroke patients with a breathing tube (tracheostomy) can have it removed. It looks at genes and blood oxygen levels, and compares patients at different altitudes to find the best timing for removal.
Kunming, YunnanAges 18–75 - NCT07023770Recruiting
Robot-assisted exercises for recovery after stroke
This trial tests a rehabilitation program that uses a walking robot (exoskeleton) to help people who have had a stroke on the right side of the brain and have trouble leaning or moving to one side. The goal is to improve balance and movement during recovery.
ÉchirollesAges 18–84 - NCT07004140Recruiting
New MRI for stroke in the first 24 hours
This trial is testing a new type of MRI machine (field-cycling MRI) to see if it can give better images of the brain right after a stroke. It's for people with moderate to severe stroke symptoms who can have an MRI within 24 hours.
AberdeenAges 18 years+ - NCT07013188Recruiting
Muscle function in stroke survivors
This study looks at how muscles work after a stroke. It aims to better understand long-term weakness or loss of function on one side of the body, which could help improve future treatments.
Derby, DerbyshireAges 40–85 - NCT07003477Recruiting
Biomarker study for early stroke type diagnosis
This study uses blood tests to quickly identify the type of stroke in patients arriving at the emergency room. It aims to help doctors choose the best treatment early on.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT03264261Recruiting
Therapy to improve walking after stroke by using affected arm
This study tests a walking-focused therapy called constraint induced movement therapy (CI therapy) to improve walking after a stroke. It may help people walk faster and more safely by encouraging more use of the more affected side.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 21–75 - NCT05820815Recruiting
In-bed exercises for early recovery after stroke
This trial tests whether a simple exercise program done in bed is safe and practical for people in the first few months after a stroke. It may help you start gentle lower-leg movement without needing to get fully out of bed right away.
