This trial tests a type of magnetic brain stimulation to help people who have trouble noticing things on their left side after a stroke on the right side of their brain. It aims to improve attention and daily life after a stroke.
This study tests whether virtual reality (computer-generated) exercises can improve attention after a recent brain injury, most often stroke. You may be eligible if your brain injury happened within the last month and testing shows measurable attention difficulties.
This study tests if hypnosis can help adults with stroke or traumatic brain injury who have symptoms like anxiety, trouble sleeping, pain, or behavior issues. Researchers want to see if it's a feasible and useful addition to usual care.
This study tests two brain-training methods, neurofeedback and transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS), to see if they can help improve attention problems in people who have had a brain injury. It may help people who have difficulty focusing or staying on task after their injury.
This study tests whether combining physiotherapy (special exercises) with hypnosis (a focused relaxation technique) can help improve arm and hand function after a stroke. It is for people who had a stroke at least 3 months ago and still have some difficulty using one arm or hand.
This study tests a brain-computer interface that uses motor imagery (imagining moving your body) to help people with multiple sclerosis. It may help improve how your brain controls movement, even if you have mild spasticity.
