The Influence of Exercise on Neuroplasticity and Motor Learning After Stroke

NCT02980796 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 104

Last updated 2017-08-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Participants will complete 11 sessions. These include screening, 5 sessions where exercise or rest (according to group assignment) are paired with practice of a motor task, MRI and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) before and after the intervention will be used to assess neuroplasticity (ability for the brain to reorganize and create new connections).

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Exercise

Each experimental day participants will complete an acute bout of exercise on a recumbent bike.

BEHAVIORAL

Practice

Each experimental day participants will complete a session of skilled motor practice.
