Early brain wave test to predict recovery after a stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a special brain wave test (called an EEG) done early after an ischemic stroke can help doctors predict how well you will recover and plan your care. It is an observational study, meaning you will not receive any experimental treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You have had an ischemic stroke (a stroke from a blocked blood vessel in the brain), confirmed by imaging tests like a CT or MRI.
- Your stroke began at a known time (or you know when you were last seen normal).
- You were independent in daily activities before this stroke (mRS score of 2 or less).
- You are able to have a resting EEG without delaying your urgent stroke treatment.
- The study focuses on people with mild-to-moderate stroke severity (NIHSS score between 4 and 18).

This study looks at how early brain imaging and careful arm/leg movement tests can help recovery after certain strokes. If you had a stroke affecting the motor pathway, this may help researchers better understand what predicts improvement.
This study tests a new artificial intelligence tool designed to help doctors better understand and predict how well stroke patients will recover. You would be recorded performing simple tasks so the AI can learn to recognize patterns in stroke recovery.
This study checks early brain and arm/hand signals soon after a stroke to better predict how well people recover by about 90 days. It may help future, better-targeted stroke recovery studies by improving how recovery chances are measured early.
This study uses a special test to see how blood flows in different parts of the brain after a stroke. It helps doctors better understand stroke recovery.
This study looks at how brain signals and MRI scans change after a first stroke that affects the arm. It tests whether these signals can help predict how well rehabilitation will work.
This trial is testing a portable EEG device (a non-invasive cap that measures brain activity) to help ambulance staff quickly determine if a patient is having a stroke. It aims to speed up diagnosis and care for people with suspected stroke symptoms.
