Prefrontal Brain Activity and ECG Patterns in Stroke and Healthy Adults

Observation of Prefrontal Cortex Activation and Electrocardiographic Characteristics in Stroke Patients and Healthy Adults

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 Jan 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This observational study will evaluate brain activity and heart rhythm patterns in people with and without stroke. Brain activity will be measured using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and electroencephalography (EEG), and cardiac activity will be measured using electrocardiography (ECG). The goal is to characterize differences in prefrontal brain activation and ECG features between stroke patients and healthy adults
