Brain stimulation and cycling for arm recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial combines brain stimulation with a special cycling exercise and computer-based thinking tasks to help improve arm and hand strength after a stroke. It may help you regain movement and function in your daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 80 years old.
- You had a stroke (either bleeding or blockage) that affected one side of your arm or hand.
- You are medically stable and can sit for about 40-60 minutes to do the training.
- You do not have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device.
- You have not had Botox injections or arm surgery in the last 6 months.

This study tests a device that uses brain activity signals to trigger stroke arm therapy. It may help improve how well your upper arm and hand function by timing the training to your brain’s patterns.
This study tests a therapy using small electrical pulses to help people who have had a stroke move their arm and hand better. It is for people who already receive Botox injections for muscle tightness and have some movement in their arm.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called PCMS to see if it can improve arm movement in people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago. It uses magnetic pulses to boost the brain's ability to control your arm.
This trial tests whether adding a gentle brain stimulation technique called tACS to standard arm exercises can improve arm movement in people who had a stroke at least 9 months ago. It aims to help those with lasting arm weakness.
This study tests a new combination treatment for people who had a stroke more than six months ago and still have arm weakness. It uses a gentle electrical current on the head (tDCS) along with a therapy that encourages use of the affected arm. The goal is to improve arm movement and daily function.
This study tests whether adding Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) to arm bike exercises can help improve arm movement in people who had a stroke within the last six months. It is designed for those with weakness on one side of the body.
