This study is looking at better ways to measure and treat neglect, a common problem after a stroke where people have difficulty paying attention to one side of their body or space. Researchers are testing a new approach that combines non-invasive brain stimulation called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) with arm and hand exercises. They want to see how this combination affects brain activity, arm movement, and attention in people who have had a stroke at least 3 months ago. You might be able to join if you are an adult who has had an ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, have certain scores on arm movement tests, and show signs of neglect. The study aims to see if this intervention can improve brain excitability, motor skills, and attention. The current status of the study is unclear.

Study design

This is an interventional study with a planned enrollment of 17 participants. It compares active tDCS with sham tDCS, where electrodes are placed but no direct current is delivered.

What's involved

Participants will be assessed at the beginning of the study and again 30 minutes later. The intervention involves 30 minutes of tDCS combined with repetitive task-specific practice for the arm/hand.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Participants will be assessed at baseline and 30 minutes later.
