Cognitive strategies after stroke with family support
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if combining cognitive exercises with a safe, mild brain stimulation can help improve memory and thinking after a stroke. It also looks at how shared family health history might affect recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a recent stroke caused by a blood clot (ischemic stroke).
- You are over 40 years old.
- You have a family member (like a parent, sibling, or child) who can join the study with you.
- You do not have severe speech problems or dementia, and you are not currently being treated for anxiety or depression.
- You are willing and able to have an MRI and a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation (like a mild electric current) if needed.

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help improve thinking and memory problems that occur after a stroke. If you've had a stroke in the past year and are experiencing cognitive difficulties, this trial may help restore some of your mental abilities.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment can improve thinking and memory problems after an acute ischemic stroke. It also uses brain scans to better understand how the treatment may help.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment, combined with rehabilitation, can improve thinking and other “neurocognition” problems after a recent stroke. It may help people whose thinking has been affected by stroke within the past month.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment designed to help people who have had a stroke recover their working memory and thinking skills. The treatment uses electrical stimulation applied to the scalp and may help your brain rewire itself after stroke damage.
This study tests a rehabilitation program to help people who have had a stroke get back to the social activities they enjoyed before. If you have trouble joining in activities with family or friends, this program may help you reconnect.
This trial tests a strategy training program to help people with memory and thinking problems after a stroke become more physically active. If you've had a stroke in the last three years and have some trouble with focus or planning, this program may help you build skills to move more and feel better.
