Early cooling for hospitalized heat stroke patients
This trial tests whether a special in-hospital cooling plan can help people with heat stroke recover better. It's designed for patients who arrive at the emergency room with a high fever and need immediate care.
Guli, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06570681Recruiting
Video call assessment for acute stroke
This trial tests whether a video call with a doctor can help assess stroke symptoms quickly in the ambulance or emergency setting. It aims to see if this approach speeds up care and improves outcomes for people with possible stroke.
Aabenraa, Region SyddanmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT06585228Recruiting
Heart CT vs ultrasound to find clots after stroke
This study compares two ways to look for blood clots in the heart after a stroke: a heart CT scan and an ultrasound done through the food pipe. It aims to see if the CT scan can spot clots just as well as the more invasive ultrasound.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06588647Recruiting
Helping Stroke Survivors Manage Recovery at Home
This trial tests a self-management program to help people recover after a stroke, using video calls and support materials. If you had a mild or moderate stroke in the last 6 months and live at home, this may help you build skills for daily life.
Columbia, MissouriAges 45–85 - NCT06593184Recruiting
Magnetic stimulation for mobility after stroke
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called trans-spinal magnetic stimulation to help improve walking and movement in people who have had a stroke. It is for those with trouble walking and are at least 6 months past their stroke.

IslamabadAges 40–65 - NCT06692569Recruiting
Modified physical therapy for arm and hand recovery after stroke
This study tests a type of physical therapy called modified constraint-induced movement therapy to help improve arm and hand function in people who have had a stroke more than six months ago. You will be encouraged to use your affected arm more often while the stronger arm is gently restricted, which may help retrain your brain and improve movement.
Riyadh, Riyadh RegionAges 45–65 - NCT06696469Recruiting
