Early ultrasound-guided movement after a stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests if starting supervised mobility early (within 48 hours) using Doppler ultrasound to guide care can help recovery in adults who just had a stroke caused by a clot. It may help you avoid complications and regain function sooner.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and had a stroke caused by a blood clot (ischemic stroke).
- You are able to have a special ultrasound of the blood vessels in your neck and head, and you can start moving with help within 48 hours of the stroke.
- You do not have a major disability before the stroke (like needing help with daily tasks).
- You are not having only a temporary mini-stroke (TIA).
- Your vital signs (blood pressure, oxygen, heart rate, temperature) are stable, and you are alert and conscious.

This trial tests whether starting mobilization earlier after a stroke procedure improves recovery. It may help patients get moving sooner and regain function faster.
This study tests whether early movement and physical activity help stroke patients recover better mobility. You'd be in the hospital after a recent stroke, and the team would work with you on safe movement and exercises during your recovery.
This study looks at whether starting rehabilitation earlier after a severe stroke can reduce the risk of future vascular events (like another stroke or heart attack). The trial will test a new approach to when and how rehabilitation begins after clot-removal treatment.
This study uses a painless ultrasound test (called transcranial Doppler) to look at blood flow in the brain during the first 24 hours after an ischemic stroke. The goal is to see if the results can help predict how well patients will recover. If you join, you'll have the ultrasound and your recovery will be followed.
This study tests whether starting rehabilitation exercises within 48 hours of a stroke helps patients recover better. If you are stable after a stroke, this early therapy may improve your movement and daily function.
This trial studies whether starting gentle movement and exercise early after a brain bleed (from a burst aneurysm) helps improve recovery. You might benefit if you have had your aneurysm treated and are awake enough to begin physical therapy soon after the event.
