Brain stimulation for left-side neglect after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had your first-ever stroke, on the right side of your brain, and it happened recently (within a few weeks).
- You have left-sided neglect, meaning you have trouble noticing things on your left side.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have normal vision (or wear glasses/contacts to correct it).
- You are able to have an MRI (no metal implants in your head, etc.).
- You do not have other serious health conditions, such as epilepsy, psychiatric disorders, or severe kidney/liver disease.

This trial tests whether combining transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain stimulation) with mirror therapy (using a mirror to trick the brain into thinking a paralyzed limb is moving) can help people who have trouble paying attention to one side of space after a stroke.
This study tests whether a mild electrical brain stimulation (tDCS) can help people who have spatial neglect after a stroke, making them more aware of the ignored side. It is for people who have had a first right-hemisphere stroke and meet specific health and language requirements.
This study tests better ways to measure and treat a condition called neglect, where stroke survivors ignore one side of their world. It may help you regain more use of your arm if you have had a stroke at least 3 months ago and have some arm movement but still find it hard to pay attention to one side.
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.
This trial is testing if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, called iTBS, can improve leg movement in people who have had a stroke more than six months ago and still have some weakness on one side.
This study tests a form of brain stimulation (TMS) in people who had a stroke affecting the left side of the brain. It aims to understand whether stimulation can help with language processing tasks at least a month after stroke.
