Summary

The study is about using a brain stimulation technique called rTMS (Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) to help improve hand muscles in people who had a stroke. Researchers want to understand how this device can help stroke patients use their hands better.

Conditions

  • Stroke
  • Stroke Patients
  • Arm Weakness as a Consequence of Stroke
  • Brain Stimulation
  • Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Repetitive
  • Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
  • Motor Learning
  • Chronic Stroke Patients
  • Chronic Stroke Survivors

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

The use of this approach aims to potentially maximize motor recovery in chronic stroke by harnessing corticospinal plasticity and modulating motor learning behavior.
