iTMS - Implementing Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to Assess Cortico-spinal Tract Integrity

Reliable prediction of upper limb (UL) function can guide clinicians in choosing relevant treatment, helps to set realistic goals for rehabilitation and will contribute to personalized and effective rehabilitation. TMS has been identified as a strong predictor of future UL function after stroke. With this project, the investigators want to implement the standard use of TMS examination for a defined patient group in the clinical setting and systematically evaluate the implementation process. The impact and perceived value of TMS in the clinical setting will be evaluated and the predictive value of TMS for the specific patient population will be assessed.
