Brain stimulation for recovery after cerebellar damage
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether brain stimulation can help improve movement and function after damage to the cerebellum (the part of the brain that controls coordination). If you have had a cerebellar stroke or similar condition, this treatment might help you recover better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 100 years old.
- You need to be a native English speaker.
- You must be medically stable to take part in the study.
- If you have a cerebellar disorder (like a stroke affecting that area), it must have started at least 2 weeks before you enroll.
- You cannot join if you have a history of seizures, take certain seizure medications, or have metal in your body that makes an MRI unsafe.
- You cannot join if you are pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a combination of gentle brain stimulation paired with specialized exercises designed to help people with cerebellar conditions—disorders affecting balance, coordination, and movement. The goal is to see if pairing these two approaches together works better than either alone.
This study tests whether brain stimulation and robotic/arm training can improve arm movement in people who had a stroke. It may help strengthen movement and coordination by targeting brain pathways related to arm control.
This study looks at whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help improve brain function and thinking skills in people recovering from a stroke. It focuses on a specific brain circuit and may help with cognitive recovery.
This early-phase trial tests whether brain stimulation (deep brain stimulation in the cerebellum or vagus nerve stimulation) can help improve arm and hand movement in people who had a stroke 1 to 3 years ago.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), can help improve movement and coordination in children with cerebellar ataxia. The treatment is combined with motor training to see if it can enhance the brain's ability to control movement.
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.
