Brain activity during walking after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how the brain works while walking in people who have had a stroke. It may help researchers understand walking problems better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke at least 6 months ago
- You can walk at least 7 meters, with or without a walking aid
- Your thinking and memory are generally good (score of 24 or higher on a standard test)
- You do not have trouble walking backward
- You do not have other nerve, muscle, or bone problems that affect walking

This study tests how well people who have had a stroke can walk in their community, how likely they are to fall, and how their vision works when turning their head. The goal is to find better ways to check recovery.
This trial tests whether watching videos of backward walking and then practicing it can help improve your walking quality after a stroke. It is designed for people who are at least six months past their stroke and can already walk independently.
This study examines how your brain works when you walk and think at the same time after stroke. Researchers will use brain imaging to understand this process, which could help develop better rehabilitation strategies.
This study looks at how the brain changes after a stroke when people walk on different surfaces. It may help understand why walking can be harder and how therapy could improve it.
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 trial looks at backward walking ability in people who have had a stroke. It aims to understand what factors are related to this skills. You may be able to join if you can walk a short distance without help and meet a few other health requirements.
