Summary

This study aims to develop a neurophysiological marker for post-stroke participants that predicts upper extremity motor recovery in response to a standard upper extremity rehabilitation protocol of task-specific training (TST). For this aim, the researchers will utilize transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) combined with electromyography (EMG) and electroencephalography (EEG) to observe inpatients with stroke-related hemiplegia and follow their recovery through outpatient for up to 3 months. Motor-evoked potentials (MEPs), transcranial-evoked potentials (TEPs), action research arm test (ARAT) scores, and clinical outcome measures will be recorded at different time points of the inpatient rehabilitation period. The researchers hypothesize that changes in motor recovery will be reflected in changes in the MEPs and TEPs.
