Nurse-led trunk control program for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a nurse-led program to help stroke patients improve their trunk control while in the hospital. It is designed for patients who have trouble with trunk movement and need extra support during recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are currently in the hospital after a stroke and your condition is stable.
- Your trunk control is limited (score below 21 on the Trunk Impairment Scale).
- You are 20 years of age or older.
- You are willing to take part in the study.

This trial tests a program where your caregiver helps you with rehabilitation exercises and strategy training to improve recovery after a stroke. It may be a good fit if you have mild to moderate disability and can participate with a healthy caregiver.
This study compares two types of physical therapy exercises to see which one better helps stroke survivors improve trunk control, balance, and daily activities. It may be a good fit if you had an ischemic stroke and are between 6 months and 1.5 years into recovery.
This trial tests whether combining pelvic PNF (a therapy that uses specific patterns to improve movement) with trunk training can help people with chronic stroke walk better and improve balance.
This study tests if combining a gentle electrical brain stimulation (transcranial direct current stimulation) with core stability exercises helps improve trunk control after a stroke. It may be helpful if you are 55 or older, had your first stroke within the past six months, and can stand and walk on your own.
This trial tests a home-based exercise program (via video or app) to help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago and still have some physical weakness. It aims to improve strength and movement without needing to travel to a clinic.
This trial studies a supervised cardiac rehabilitation program for people after they have had a stroke. It may help improve heart-related fitness and recovery safety after stroke, especially for patients who need a tailored rehab approach.
