Brain stimulation for post-stroke aphasia
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation called temporal interference stimulation to see if it can safely help people recover language abilities after a stroke. It aims to improve communication for people with post-stroke aphasia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are right-handed.
- You speak Mandarin as your native language.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a gentle brain stimulation treatment called tDCS to help people recover speech after a recent stroke. If you had a first-time stroke on the left side of your brain within the past 3 months and now have trouble speaking (aphasia), this treatment may help your brain relearn language.
This study tests whether a form of brain stimulation can improve naming words in people who still have language problems (aphasia) more than 6 months after a stroke. It may help people find and say words more accurately during a naming task.
This trial studies a specific brain-stimulation method to help improve speech and language problems (aphasia) after an ischemic stroke. You may qualify if your stroke affected the left side of the brain and your language testing shows moderate language difficulty.
This trial studies different doses of a targeted brain stimulation technique to treat aphasia (language problems) after a first stroke. If you qualify, the goal is to see whether the treatment can improve your ability to understand and speak.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation method (using magnetic pulses) to help people recover language after a left-side stroke. If you have aphasia from a recent first stroke, this treatment might boost your recovery.
This trial studies a targeted, non-surgical brain stimulation approach to improve aphasia (language problems) after a first stroke. It may help people regain better language skills by guiding stimulation to specific brain areas.
