Magnetic stimulation after clot removal for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) after clot-removal surgery can help people recover better from a stroke. It is for people who had a moderate-to-severe stroke in the front part of the brain and had the clot removed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- Your stroke was caused by a blockage in the front part of the brain (anterior circulation).
- You had a clot-removal procedure (thrombectomy) within 24 hours of the stroke.
- You do not have metal implants in your head, like a pacemaker or cochlear implant.
- You do not have epilepsy, a brain tumor, or another severe brain condition.

This trial looks at how blood flow and brain activity change in the first days after a stroke caused by a large blockage in the front part of the brain. It tests if certain patterns can help predict recovery after a procedure to remove the clot.
This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called iTBS can help people recover motor function after a stroke caused by a large clot in the front part of the brain. It is for patients who had the clot removed successfully with a procedure within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation therapy (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) can help people recover from an ischemic stroke. It focuses on patients who are in the early stages of recovery and have weakness on only one side of the body.
This study tests a new, personalized magnetic brain stimulation to help stroke survivors recover thinking and memory skills. It may be a good fit for people who have had their first stroke and have cognitive problems.
This trial tests if a treatment that uses magnetic pulses on the head (called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) combined with physical therapy can help improve movement and daily activities after a stroke. It is for people who had their first ischemic stroke and have weakness on one side.
This trial tests a new type of brain stimulation therapy to help people who have had a stroke on one side of the brain regain movement in their affected arm. It combines gentle electrical stimulation on the scalp with hand movements, aiming to improve arm function for those with mild to moderate weakness.
