Role of EEG in Differentiation Between Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke
Electroencephalogram (EEG) in Differentiation Between Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke and Its Role as a Predictor of Post-stroke Recovery
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Nov 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Searching electrical activity registered by EEG in acute ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke and comparing these parameters to the post-stroke recovery patterns to investigate the role of EEG as a differentiation tool and as a predictor of post-stroke recovery.
