Clinical Trial: Effect of Vagus Nerve Stimulation Via the Outer Ear on Motor and Cognitive Deficits After Ischemic Stroke

U.S., Feb. 13 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06822140) titled 'Effect of Vagus Nerve Stimulation Via the Outer Ear on Motor and Cognitive Deficits After Ischemic Stroke' on Feb. 05.

Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) works to treat motor and neurocognitive deficits after ischemic stroke when applied within 30 days after onset of stroke.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does tVNS improve motor deficits measured by the Fugl-Mayer assessment after ischemic stroke?

* Does tVNS ameliorate stroke-related cognitive impairment? Researchers will compare tVNS to a placebo (sham stimulation, i.e. an electrode...
