Telemedicine speech therapy for stroke-related language problems
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a home-based (telemedicine) therapy that uses focused brain “engagement” exercises to help improve language after a stroke. It is meant for adults with stroke-related aphasia (language difficulty) and checks whether you can participate reliably with the tasks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- You can understand and communicate in English well enough to participate
- You had a stroke in the brain’s left side confirmed by scans
- Your stroke-related aphasia is still present (based on a language test score below a set cutoff)
- You can consent yourself, or you have someone who can consent for you

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests if adding a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (transcranial magnetic stimulation) to language therapy can improve speech recovery in people who had a stroke 2 to 6 weeks ago and now have aphasia (trouble speaking or understanding language).
This study tests whether telerehabilitation (therapy done by video/remote technology) can improve communication after a stroke caused aphasia. It may help you practice speech and understanding skills at home or from a convenient location.
This trial tests an approach that adjusts therapy scheduling for people with long-lasting (over 6 months) language problems after a stroke. It may help some patients by matching the therapy timing to what works best for them.
This study looks at how the brain rewires itself after a stroke that causes aphasia (language problems). It uses brain scans to understand changes in brain networks, which may help improve recovery treatments.
This trial studies a targeted, non-surgical brain stimulation approach to improve aphasia (language problems) after a first stroke. It may help people regain better language skills by guiding stimulation to specific brain areas.
This study tests whether mild brain stimulation (tDCS) combined with language exercises can improve communication after a stroke. It also includes healthy volunteers to help compare brain and language task results.
