Exploration of Repeated High-frequency Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for the Treatment of Acute Phase Aphasia in Post-stroke Patients

Stroke is currently an important cause of death and disability among adults worldwide, with acute ischemic stroke being the most common type of stroke, accounting for 69.6% -72.8% of new strokes in China. The time division of the acute phase generally refers to the onset time within 1-2 weeks. About 21-38% of stroke patients have post-stroke aphasia. Post stroke aphasia is usually an acquired language disorder caused by damage to the language functional areas of the dominant hemisphere, characterized by varying degrees of impairment in some or all language functions, including speaking, listening and understanding, paraphrasing, naming, reading, and calligraphy abilities. Rehabilitation treatment for cerebral infarction should be done early rather than late. Based on this, this study aims to explore transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy for post-stroke aphasia patients in the acute phase. By regulating the balance of cortical excitability on both sides of the healthy and affected areas, early speech function rehabilitation can be achieved, which is necessary for improving the quality of life of post-stroke aphasia patients
