This study tracks how walking and balance improve in the first weeks after a stroke. It uses simple tests to measure your recovery over time, with no experimental treatments.
This study looks at how well people recover their walking ability after a first stroke. It may help improve rehabilitation programs for stroke survivors.
This study looks at how therapy and movement training may help people regain walking and compensate after their first stroke. You may be eligible if you are in the early weeks after stroke and are currently in inpatient rehabilitation, with medical clearance to safely participate in exercise.
This study tests whether exercise plus motor learning training can improve walking and movement after a stroke that happened more than 6 months ago. You may be a good candidate if you can walk on your own and your stroke-related brain injury is not mainly in the cerebellum.
This study looks at whether a specific exercise program can help people with chronic stroke (more than 6 months ago) who still have some weakness in their leg. It aims to improve walking and overall physical ability.
This trial studies a more intensive, early walking exercise program after a stroke. It may help improve walking speed, balance, and the ability to move safely with less support.
