Brain stimulation to improve arm movement after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of non-invasive brain stimulation to help people with arm weakness after a stroke improve their movement and daily function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had your first stroke at least 6 months ago.
- You have weakness in one arm or hand, but some movement is still possible.
- You can follow instructions and attend 1-hour treatment sessions.
- You do not have a history of seizures or a metal or electronic implant in your body.
- You have not had Botox injections in your arm within the last 3 months.

This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment to help people recover arm and hand movement after a stroke. It may improve motor function when combined with rehabilitation.
This trial uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called iTBS to see if it can improve arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago. It might help you regain some function in your weaker arm.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called theta burst stimulation to see if it can improve arm and leg function in people who recently had a stroke. It may help with movement recovery in the first few months after stroke.
This trial tests whether a specific type of brain stimulation, called theta burst stimulation, can help improve arm movement in people who have had a stroke. It looks at how different intensities of the stimulation affect recovery.
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation to help people who have had a stroke and still have limited arm movement. The goal is to see if a specific pattern of stimulation can improve recovery more than others.
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation (called cTBS) to help improve arm movement after a stroke. It is designed for people who have weakness in one arm due to a first stroke and can start treatment within 21 days.
