Brain stimulation guided by pupil size for hand recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a noninvasive (no surgery) brain stimulation technique guided by your pupil size to help improve hand function after a stroke. It is for people who had a single stroke at least 6 months ago and still have hand weakness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You had a single stroke that caused hand weakness, and it happened at least 6 months ago.
- You do not have inner ear problems that cause dizziness.
- You do not have a history of seizures or epilepsy.
- You are not pregnant, and you do not have any metal implants or devices in your body that are not safe for an MRI.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether a combination of brain stimulation and structured hand practice can improve hand movement for people recovering from stroke. It may help because the training targets upper-limb function while using therapy intended to support recovery.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to help improve arm and hand function in people who have had a stroke. The goal is to find the best way to use this treatment to help you regain movement and strength in your affected arm.
This trial tests whether carefully targeted, noninvasive electrical stimulation of the brain can improve arm and overall recovery after an ischemic stroke. It may help by supporting brain relearning during the first weeks after stroke.
This study tests a personalized, non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to help improve movement in people who have had a stroke that affects one side of the body. It aims to see if this gentle electrical stimulation can boost recovery of arm and hand function.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS to help improve hand function after stroke. Researchers believe stimulating two areas of the brain may help weakened hands recover better movement and strength.
This trial tests a combination of mild electrical brain stimulation and a special hand therapy program to help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. It is for adults who had a stroke more than three months ago and still have moderate to mild arm weakness.
