Walking exercise for heart and lung health after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a supervised walking and exercise program can improve your heart and lung fitness and overall quality of life after a stroke. It is designed for people who are still affected by weakness on one side but can walk on their own.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 55 and 65 years old.
- You had a stroke in the last year that caused weakness or paralysis on one side.
- You can walk without needing someone to hold on to you (a cane or walker is fine).
- Your blood pressure is well controlled with medication.
- You have not joined any other research study in the past 3 months.
- You are not taking study-related medications for other conditions that might interfere.

This study aims to develop a walking exercise program for people who have had a stroke and cannot walk on their own. It will test a treadmill-based program to help improve walking ability.
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.
This trial tests if high-intensity treadmill training can improve walking speed for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It focuses on those who still walk slowly and may use a walker or cane.
This study tests whether a 12-week exercise program can help people who have had a stroke walk better. It focuses on those with a slower walking speed and uses brain scans to see if exercise can trigger positive changes in the brain.
