Brain-computer interface therapy for arm recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface system that helps people move their arm after a recent stroke. It might help improve arm strength and control.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 21 and 80 years old.
- You had a stroke (either bleeding or blockage) within the last 2 to 12 weeks.
- You can still slightly move your fingers or wrist, even if very weak.
- You can understand and follow simple instructions and are medically stable.
- You do not have a pacemaker, a history of seizures, or severe arm pain or stiffness.

This trial tests a brain-computer interface system that helps move your arm using electrical stimulation. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 6 months ago and have lasting weakness in one arm.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (a device implanted in the brain) to help people who have had a stroke regain arm movement. It may help if you have a single stroke that happened 6 to 18 months ago and still have trouble using your arm.
This study tests a new brain-computer system that helps people recovering from a stroke in the left side of the brain. It uses your thoughts to move a device, which may help improve arm and hand movement.
This trial tests a new brain-controlled device that sends electrical signals to your spinal cord to help restore arm and leg movement after a stroke. If you had a stroke at least 9 months ago and have weakness on one side of your body, this may help you regain function.
This trial tests a way to retrain your brain's rhythms after a stroke to help you move your arm and hand better. It uses a non-invasive head coil (TMS) to stimulate the brain while you squeeze a grip device.
This trial tests a brain implant that may help you move your arm better after a stroke. It focuses on people with moderate to severe arm weakness who still have some movement in their elbow or fingers.
