Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Patients With Hemiplegic Stroke

Sponsor: Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Stroke is one of the major causes of death in the World. Many stroke survivors may suffer from long-term sequelae of stroke such as hemiplegia. The effects of rehabilitation therapy are limited. The development of new treatment strategies is essential. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive method to stimulate the focal area of the brain for restoring brain function. The aim of this study is to investigate the therapeutic effect of rTMS on the motor recovery in patients with hemiplegic stroke.
