Personalized brain stimulation for better arm function after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called iTBS, tailored to each person, can improve arm and hand movement in people who had their first stroke 1 to 3 months ago. It may help you regain more use of your affected arm.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.

This trial uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called iTBS to see if it can improve arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago. It might help you regain some function in your weaker arm.
This trial tests whether a personalized, non-invasive brain stimulation treatment (rTMS) can help improve arm function in people who had a stroke within the past 3 months. It is designed for patients with moderate to severe arm weakness who are still in the hospital.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation method to help improve arm and hand movement after a first ischemic stroke. It may help people who still have moderate to severe weakness months after their stroke.
This trial tests whether a specific type of brain stimulation, called theta burst stimulation, can help improve arm movement in people who have had a stroke. It looks at how different intensities of the stimulation affect recovery.
This trial is testing if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, called iTBS, can improve leg movement in people who have had a stroke more than six months ago and still have some weakness on one side.
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation (called cTBS) to help improve arm movement after a stroke. It is designed for people who have weakness in one arm due to a first stroke and can start treatment within 21 days.
