Summary

This trial will test if a therapy combining deep brain stimulation & rehab can improve arm weakness or reduced function after stroke.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who had an ischemic stroke between 1 and 6 years ago, leading to ongoing weakness in one arm. It's not suitable for those with additional strokes affecting the arm or significant damage to certain brain areas like the brainstem, cerebellum, or thalamus.
What is being tested?
The RESTORE Stroke Study is testing whether combining Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) with rehabilitation therapy can improve arm strength and function after a stroke.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of DBS may include headache, confusion, speech problems, balance issues, tingling sensations in the limbs, and mood changes.
