Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for adults aged 18-80 who have had a stroke at least a year ago. Participants will use a special treatment to help improve arm and hand movement.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I am between 18 and 80 years old.
I had a stroke more than 12 months ago.
I can follow two-step commands.
I have an upper limb Fugl-Meyer score between 20 and 50.
I can communicate and give consent.
I have motor evoked potentials when my brain is stimulated.
You may not be able to join if
I have moderate or severe cognitive impairment.
I have severe apraxia.
I have a serious uncontrolled medical condition.
I am pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
I had botulinum toxin injections in my arm in the last 3 months.
I have severe spasticity in my affected arm.
I have metal implants in my head.
I had a seizure in the last 12 months.
