Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Evidence of clinically definite ischemic stroke (focal neurological deficits persisting for more than 24 hours) confirmed by non-investigational CT or MRI

    up to 20 days

  • The emergence of epileptic seizure

    up to 20 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluation of the clinical condition of the patient

    up to 20 days

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Pregnancy

    up to 20 days

Study Arms (4)

Low-frequency stimulation

EXPERIMENTAL

Stimulation mode: 1 Hz, 100% MT, 20 minutes, unaffected hemisphere

Procedure: Transcranial magnetic stimulation

High frequency stimulation

EXPERIMENTAL

Stimulation mode: 10 Hz, 80% MT, 2 seconds - stimulation, 58 seconds - rest. - 8 session; affected hemisphere

Procedure: Transcranial magnetic stimulation

Sham stimulation

SHAM COMPARATOR

Patients will receive standard treatment (kinesotherapy, physiotherapy) and simulate of transcranial magnetic stimulation. Also patients will not know about simulation (blind group)

Procedure: Transcranial magnetic stimulation

Both hemispheric stimulation

EXPERIMENTAL

Stimulation mode: low-frequency to unaffected hemisphere than high-frequency to affected.

Procedure: Transcranial magnetic stimulation

Interventions

Transcranial magnetic stimulation is a noninvasive technique for including electrical currents in the cerebral cortex by means of time-varying magnetic fields.

Also known as: Transcranial magnetic stimulation, brain stimulation

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • a person with confirmed cerebral blood flow by ischemic from 8 days to 3 years in a pool of carotid arteries;
  • Persons with acute cerebrovascular accidents related to the severity of stroke scale NIHSS (National Institute of Health Stroke Scale) from 5 to 20 points;
  • People with cerebral circulatory assessment on the modified Rankin scale at most 3;
  • the availability of informed consent;
  • healthy volunteers who gave informed consent to participate in the study.

You may not qualify if:

  • The presence of an implanted pacemaker, intracardiac catheters, electronic pumps;
  • The plight of the patient, requiring the maintenance of vital functions by hardware (mechanical ventilation, continuous application infusomats), including an increase of neurological symptoms after 8 days from the start of CVD, myocardial infarction, venous thrombosis of lower extremities, episodes of pulmonary embolism;
  • The severity of neurological deficit, which does not allow the patient to pass on their own 10 meters (you can use additional support);
  • Pregnancy or possibility of pregnancy in women of childbearing age (before menopause), according to a pregnancy test;
  • The presence of metallic elements or implants in the head region, located closer than 20 cm from the edge of the surface coil magnetic stimulator, with the exception of the mouth (metal brackets, vascular sutures, metal plates that cover the defects of the skull, metallic foreign body in the cranial cavity);
  • Identification of epileptiform activity during the screening of EEG before the study;
  • Epilepsy or seizures in history;
  • Patient refusal to participate in the study;
  • Identified in the study of the general intolerance of the pulsed magnetic field;
  • Setting the pacemaker, intracardiac catheters, or operations on the brain, requiring the abandonment of metallic objects in the cranial cavity;
  • The onset of pregnancy;
  • Enhancement of the patient, requiring the maintenance of vital functions by hardware (mechanical ventilation);
  • The emergence of an epileptic seizure in response to the rhythmic TMS;
  • Patient refusal to continue participation in the study;
