Brain training for hand recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a brain-based training method (neurofeedback) to help improve hand movement after a stroke. It is for people who had a stroke in the last 3 months and still have weakness on one side.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke caused by a blood clot (ischemic stroke) that affects one side of your body.
- Your stroke happened within the last 3 months.
- You have some arm or hand weakness but can still move a little (stages 2 to 4 on a recovery scale).
- You are between 18 and 70 years old.
- You can sit up without help and do not have vision problems or serious memory issues.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests if adding biofeedback to standard rehabilitation improves hand and arm function after a stroke. Biofeedback uses sensors to show you how your muscles are working, helping you regain movement.
This trial tests an upper-limb (arm/hand) rehabilitation program guided by brain activity signals, started soon after a stroke. It may help people with early incomplete arm recovery improve hand and arm function.
This study tests a new brain-computer system that helps people recovering from a stroke in the left side of the brain. It uses your thoughts to move a device, which may help improve arm and hand movement.
This trial tests whether a brain-computer interface (BCI) using near-infrared light can help stroke survivors improve hand and arm movement. You'll receive a type of brain training called neurofeedback during the study.
This trial tests a way to retrain your brain's rhythms after a stroke to help you move your arm and hand better. It uses a non-invasive head coil (TMS) to stimulate the brain while you squeeze a grip device.
This study tests whether non-invasive brain stimulation plus a hand/arm electrical stimulation device can improve how well your stroke-affected arm and hand move during therapy tasks. You would take part in screening and then receive these combined rehab approaches to see if motor control improves.
