Remote arm treatment for acute ischemic stroke patients
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a simple remote “arm conditioning” treatment started soon after an acute ischemic stroke can improve outcomes and safety. It may help some patients recover better by supporting the body’s protective response to stroke.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 79 years old (any sex).
- You have a confirmed acute ischemic stroke, and treatment can start within 12 hours of stroke symptoms beginning.
- Your stroke severity is moderate (NIHSS score more than 5, up to 25).
- Your level of alertness is not too low (GCS score 8 or higher).
- You can sign consent to join the study.

This trial tests whether a non-invasive arm cuff treatment (remote ischemic conditioning) can help people recover from a moderate stroke caused by a blockage in a major artery. You must start the treatment within 48 hours of your first symptoms.
This trial tests whether a simple, non-invasive treatment (repeated inflation of a blood pressure cuff on your arm or leg) can help people recover better after a stroke caused by a large clot. You must be having a mechanical thrombectomy (clot removal) within 24 hours of your stroke.
This trial studies whether a simple, non-drug treatment done to your arm (remote ischemic conditioning) can improve safety and outcomes after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (a type of brain bleeding). It also looks at whether it can be started quickly after symptoms begin.
This study tests whether a simple “remote conditioning” method done on the arm can help lower blood pressure in older adults with hypertension. It may help people whose blood pressure is high but not dangerously high at the time of screening.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive treatment called remote ischemic conditioning—brief, gentle pressure on the arm—can help protect your heart after a stroke. The study enrolls patients who have had an acute ischemic stroke (a type caused by a blood clot) and also show signs of heart injury detected through blood tests.
This trial tests whether a simple, non-drug treatment (using a blood pressure cuff to briefly restrict blood flow to your arm) can help people with a recent moderate stroke in the back part of the brain. It aims to improve recovery by preparing the body to better handle the stroke damage.
