Exercise coaching for brain health after small stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a home-based exercise program, guided by a coach over video calls, can help improve brain function and connectivity in people who have had a small stroke. The program is designed for people aged 60 and older with a history of lacunar stroke who are not very active but otherwise have minimal disability.
