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+ - 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 - 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+ - NCT07026318Recruiting
Combining clot removal and tirofiban for stroke
This trial tests adding the anti-clotting drug tirofiban to standard clot removal for people who have a stroke due to a narrowed artery in the brain. The goal is to see if this combination improves outcomes without raising bleeding risk.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07034521Recruiting
Robot-assisted walking training for chronic stroke survivors
This trial tests if a special robot suit can help people with chronic stroke improve their walking. If you had a stroke 6 months to 3 years ago and can walk a little with help, you may be able to join.
Taipei, TaipeiAges 18–80 - NCT07035730Recruiting
Walking recovery after stroke using a robotic hip exoskeleton
This study tests a robotic device (SHAJA-R exoskeleton) that helps move your hips during walking. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 3 months ago and still have some trouble walking, but can walk a little with or without help.
Costa Masnaga, ItalyAges 18–80 - NCT07036900Recruiting
Arm sling types and their effect on walking and balance after stroke
This study tests whether two different types of arm slings affect how stroke survivors walk and keep their balance. It aims to find which sling might help improve movement and stability.
IstanbulAges 18–80 - NCT07041775Recruiting
MINT video game training to improve walking after stroke
This study tests a new video-game–style training called MINT to help people who have had a stroke walk better. If you have trouble walking because one leg is weaker or slower than the other, this training might help improve your balance and coordination.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–85 - NCT07044830Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether treating sleep apnea with a CPAP machine soon after a stroke can improve recovery. It is for people who had their first moderate-to-severe ischemic stroke and have not used CPAP before.
Ribeirão Preto, São PauloAges 18–80 - NCT07054424Recruiting
TMS and bimanual therapy for arm recovery after stroke
This trial tests if combining repetitive magnetic brain stimulation (rTMS) with two-handed therapy can improve arm function after a first-time stroke. It may help people who have weakness or difficulty using one hand due to a stroke within the past year.
TaoyuanAges 40–80 - NCT07055945Recruiting
Visual-motor training for arm function after stroke
This trial tests if a type of training that combines eye exercises with arm movements can help people who have had a stroke regain better use of their affected arm.
Ankara, TürkiyeAges 18–75 - NCT07056049Recruiting
Extra arm exercises after stroke
This trial tests whether adding more arm exercises early after a stroke helps people recover arm and hand movement. If you qualify, you would get extra motor training in addition to your regular therapy.
OfakimAges 18 years+ - NCT07063368Recruiting
Otago exercises and balance training for stroke recovery
This study tests two simple programs—Otago exercises (leg and balance movements) and a fear-reduction technique—to help people who had a stroke improve balance, reduce falls, and overcome fear of falling. It is designed for those still able to walk and in the early weeks of recovery.
Sialkot, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–70 - 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+ - NCT07069452Recruiting
Predicting recovery after stroke with brain scan scores
This study looks at how well different scores from brain scans can predict recovery after a stroke. It is for people who had an ischemic stroke and were treated with both clot-dissolving medicine and a clot removal procedure.
