This study tests a strategy-training program to help people who have had a stroke and struggle with spatial neglect (trouble paying attention to one side). The program is designed to improve attention and daily function. Participation involves coming to the University of Pittsburgh for training sessions.
This trial tests a specific exercise to help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago improve their ability to stand up from a chair. It may help you if you have some trouble but can still do the movement with minimal or no help.
This study tests whether combining mindfulness meditation with balance and walking exercises can help improve memory and thinking skills in people who had a stroke. The trial focuses on people with mild cognitive impairment—difficulty thinking clearly—after stroke recovery.
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 trial tests a strategy training program to help people with memory and thinking problems after a stroke become more physically active. If you've had a stroke in the last three years and have some trouble with focus or planning, this program may help you build skills to move more and feel better.
This study tests whether exercise plus motor learning training can improve walking and movement after a stroke that happened more than 6 months ago. You may be a good candidate if you can walk on your own and your stroke-related brain injury is not mainly in the cerebellum.
