From the registry

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.

Primary outcomes

  • Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events and Side Effects as assessed by iTBS Review of Systems
  • Assess feasibility, of an accelerated protocol of rTMS in stroke patients looking at retention and using an rTMS a credibility questionnaire pre/post treatment.
  • Demonstrate acceptability of an accelerated protocol of rTMS in stroke patients using an acceptability of rTMS questionnaire.
