Early movement therapy after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a type of therapy that uses gentle movements and pressure to help your brain and body recover after a stroke. It's for people who recently had a stroke and have weakness on one side, and you will be asked to do special exercises guided by a therapist.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a self-supervised arm therapy program for people who had a stroke at least two weeks ago. It aims to improve use of the weaker arm through intensive practice at home.
This early research study looks at a way to improve thinking and movement after a stroke that happened more than 6 months ago. It may help people who still have problems using one side of their body to walk and learn new movement skills.
This trial tests a combination of spinal cord stimulation and a brain-computer interface that lets you control a device with your thoughts. It's for people who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago and still have some movement in their wrist or fingers but need help improving arm function.
This study tests a non-invasive electrical stimulation treatment meant to help people regain hand and arm movement after a stroke. You would attend frequent therapy-style sessions, and the team would track your arm function over about eight months.
This trial tests a way to retrain your brain's rhythms after a stroke to help you move your arm and hand better. It uses a non-invasive head coil (TMS) to stimulate the brain while you squeeze a grip device.
This pilot study tests whether a combination of brain stimulation (TMS) and physical therapy can help improve arm and hand function in people who had a stroke at least one year ago. The goal is to see if this approach helps patients regain better control and strength in their affected arm.
