Balance rehab program for brain injury survivors
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a balance-focused rehabilitation program for people who have had a brain injury (from stroke, trauma, lack of oxygen, tumor, or infection). It aims to improve balance and daily function. You may qualify if you are between 18 and 65, can walk with or without a device, and are at least 2 months past your injury.

This study tests a new balance training program called NEUROBALANCE to help improve postural control in people who have had a traumatic brain injury. It uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (TMS) to see if it can help improve balance and walking.
This study tests whether training on a robotic device can help improve balance and posture for people who had a traumatic brain injury (TBI) within the last 6 months to 5 years. It may help if you have some balance issues and can stand without support for 5 minutes.
This trial compares two types of balance exercises to see which one better improves balance, posture, and reduces the risk of falling in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago.
This trial tests a new type of therapy that combines acceptance and commitment therapy (a counseling approach) with vestibular rehabilitation (exercises for balance and dizziness). It's designed for people with mild traumatic brain injury who still have symptoms like dizziness, anxiety, or memory problems.
This trial tests whether combining balance exercises with brain-training activities can help improve walking and thinking in people with multiple sclerosis. It is for people aged 40–55 who have mild cognitive problems and balance issues.
This trial tests a virtual reality program that combines thinking and walking exercises to help improve your balance and walking speed. It may be a good fit if you have a traumatic brain injury and walk more slowly than usual.
