Summary

Low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the unaffected hemisphere (UH) transiently improves motor function in patients in the chronic phase after stroke. The goal of this study is to investigate effects on motor recovery of low-frequency rTMS of the UH, administered in the subacute phase after stroke.
