Brain stimulation for arm recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new brain stimulation device to help people recover arm and hand movement after a stroke. It is for those who had a stroke at least 6 months ago and still have moderate arm weakness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had an ischemic stroke at least 6 months ago
- You are between 22 and 75 years old
- You have moderate weakness in one arm or hand (not completely paralyzed)
- You can participate in rehabilitation exercises and follow instructions
- You do not have a history of seizures, bleeding disorders, or other implanted devices

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (a device implanted in the brain) to help people who have had a stroke regain arm movement. It may help if you have a single stroke that happened 6 to 18 months ago and still have trouble using your arm.
This trial tests a brain stimulation device (Brain Q) to help improve arm and hand movement in people who had a stroke 6 months to 5 years ago. The goal is to see if it can boost recovery beyond standard therapy.
This study looks at how the two sides of your brain work together to help your arm recover after a stroke. It uses brain stimulation (TMS) and MRI scans to understand brain healing and may help guide future treatments.
This trial combines magnetic brain stimulation with computer-based motor training to help improve arm and hand function in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It may be a good fit if you have moderate to severe weakness on one side and can take part in brain-computer interface training.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface system that helps move your arm using electrical stimulation. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 6 months ago and have lasting weakness in one arm.
This study tests a new combination treatment for people who had a stroke more than six months ago and still have arm weakness. It uses a gentle electrical current on the head (tDCS) along with a therapy that encourages use of the affected arm. The goal is to improve arm movement and daily function.
