No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Few treatments are available for post-stroke rehabilitation. The current study aims to develop a novel, short-term, high-dose repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) based intervention to improve post-stroke cognitive problems. This study will test the safety as well as changes in cognitive function and brain activation with the administration of an accelerated rTMS protocol in chronic stroke.

Conditions
