There are currently 246 active clinical trials seeking participants for Stroke research studies. The states with the highest number of trials for Stroke participants are California, Florida, New York and Ontario.
Imaging Post-Stroke Recovery: Using MEG to Evaluate Cognition
Recruiting
This is a study using magnetoencephalography (MEG) to look at recovery in those with minor stroke. The investigators know that these individuals report difficulties in attention, concentration, multi-tasking, energy level, and processing speed that appear to be independent of lesion size or location. The underlying pathophysiology is unclear; however, anecdotally, many individuals are significantly improved by 6 months post-stroke. One hypothesis is that a single lesion, regardless of size, may... Read More

Biomarkers of Reaction To HIIT Exercise
Recruiting
Stroke survivors with lower limb disability can improve their walking speed with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) rehabilitation therapy. However, some individuals may not respond to HIIT even when fully adherent to the program. To address this, the investigators propose to build a predictive model that identifies if a Veteran with chronic subcortical stroke will improve their walking speed with HIIT by incorporating blood lactate as an early predictor of exercise response, and inhibitory...

Tracking Post-stroke Walking Improvements From the Clinic Into the Home
Recruiting
The purpose of this proposal is to use novel video-based movement tracking technology to measure gait quality after stroke - in the home. Current rehabilitation practice assesses walking in the highly controlled 'ideal' clinical environment. The implicit assumption by clinicians and researchers is that the way people walk in the clinic (their best capacity) reflects the way they walk in the real-world (true performance). With advances in computer vision and development of pose estimation algorit... Read More

Pharmacy-led Transitions of Care Intervention to Improve Medication Adherence
Recruiting
Socioeconomically disadvantaged populations with multiple chronic conditions have high rates of nonadherence to essential chronic disease medications after hospital discharge. Medication nonadherence after hospital discharge is significantly associated with increased mortality and higher rates of readmissions and costs among these patients. Major patient-reported barriers to essential medication use after hospital discharge among low-income individuals are related to social determinants of healt... Read More

Augmenting a Post-Stroke Wellness Program With Respiratory Muscle Training
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the hypothesis that combined Respiratory Muscle Training and a Stroke Wellness Program is more effective than a Stroke Wellness Program alone for stroke survivors with and without a smoking exposure history. Participants will participant in a Stroke Wellness Program consisting of strengthening, cardiovascular and flexibility training program plus respiratory exercise for 24 sessions (3x/week for 8 weeks). Researchers will compare outcomes to those ran... Read More

Exercise Primed Stroke Rehabilitation
Recruiting
Stroke is a leading cause of disability in the U.S. and many Veteran stroke survivors live with severe disability. Despite recent advances in rehabilitation treatments many stroke survivors have persistent physical and mental difficulties such as reduced physical and cognitive function and depression. Developing innovative treatments that address these problems is necessary to improve long-term outcomes for stroke survivors. Aerobic exercise (AEx) can improve physical and cognitive function, and... Read More

StrokeCog-BBB to Study Cognitive Outcomes Following Stroke
Recruiting
The goal of this observational study is to learn about cognitive outcomes in stroke patients. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. Is blood-brain barrier permeability compromised for years after stroke, 2. Is a blood biomarker of imbalanced angiogenesis dysregulated in chronic stroke and 3. Are there biomarkers that separately or together predicts cognitive decline after stroke, and are other MRI, blood, and clinical characteristics that are associated. Participants will undergo cognitive... Read More

Improving Blood Pressure Control in Stroke Patients by Increasing Access to a Home Blood Pressure Monitor
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether providing teaching with a low-cost device can help to improve blood pressure, health outcomes, patient self-efficacy without exacerbating inequity between advantaged and disadvantaged patients. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Does providing a free home blood pressure cuff improve control of hypertension? Does providing a free home blood pressure cuff have a greater impact on control of hypertension in disadvantaged populations? Do... Read More

Amplatzer Amulet LAAO vs. NOAC
Recruiting
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Amulet LAA occluder compared to NOAC therapy in patients with non-valvular AF at increased risk for ischemic stroke and who are recommended for long-term NOAC therapy. The clinical investigation is a prospective, randomized, multicenter active control worldwide trial. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio between the Amulet LAA occlusion device ("Device Group") and a commercially available NOAC medication ("Cont... Read More

Brain State-dependent PCMS in Chronic Stroke
Recruiting
After stroke, people often have difficulty using their hands. Combined brain and nerve stimulation can strengthen the neural pathways that control hand function. In this study, we will deliver combined brain and nerve stimulation during specific time windows that increase activation of neural pathways underlying hand function. We will compare the effects of combined brain and nerve stimulation during these optimal time windows to the effects of combined brain and nerve stimulation applied during... Read More
