Music listening for stroke or spinal cord recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing whether listening to music can help you recover after a recent stroke or spinal cord injury. You would listen to music during your rehabilitation and researchers will see if it helps with recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke (hemorrhagic or ischemic) within the last 4 weeks, or a spinal cord injury within the last 6 months, and you need intensive rehabilitation.
- You do not have severe hearing loss that would prevent you from listening to music.
- You do not have a pre-existing neurological condition like dementia that significantly affects your daily life.
- You are not currently using drugs or experiencing an acute psychiatric condition.
- You can understand the trial information and give your consent to participate.
- If you have a spinal cord injury, you must not also have a new traumatic brain injury or stroke.
