Effect of Cerebral and Cerebellar rTMS in Stroke Patient

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Stroke; rTMS; Motor Recovery; Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

• Registration Number: NCT04570774
• Lead Sponsor: Samsung Medical Center

Brief Summary

This study is based on the characteristics of motor learning theory and motor learning neural network to improve motor function in stroke patients. This study is to investigate whether the cerebral-cerebellar repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is effective in improving motor function compared to the conventional cerebral rTMS in stroke patients.
