This trial is looking for adults who have had their first ever stroke due to a lack of blood flow to the brain. Participants will help researchers learn how sensory changes after a stroke affect walking and balance over time.
You may be able to join if
- I have had my first ever stroke.
- I had a stroke due to ischemia.
- I am 18 years old or older.
- I can give my own consent before leaving the hospital.
You may not be able to join if
- I was dependent before my stroke.
- I had a stroke only in my brainstem or cerebellum.
- I have had strokes on both sides of my brain.
- I am in another trial that lasts for six months.
- I cannot keep up with study procedures for six months.
- I cannot have a non-contrast MRI.
- I have serious complications that make my survival unlikely.
- I have conditions that severely affect my vision or balance.

Check Your EligibilityThe primary objective of this proof-of-concept study is to longitudinally track the development of post-stroke sensory reweighting (PSR), identify associated structural neuroanatomical correlates, and investigate their relationship to walking and fall outcomes.
