Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to use (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) TMS or drugs to improve learning of movement skills and the adaptation processes in patients after stroke. Once investigators have determined the improving effect of TMS and the drugs on learning of movement skills, the study team may be able to provide information that improves rehabilitative treatment and helps to improve recovery after stroke.

Primary Outcome

Motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitudes were measured prior to treatment (baseline), immediately after the treatment (post-training 1), 30 minutes after the treatment (post-training 2), and 60 minutes after the treatment (post-training 3).The MEP is elicited by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) at increased intensity. Its amplitude is measured from peak to peak and expressed in millivolts (mV). Measured MEP amplitudes were plotted against the intensity to create a stimulus response curve (
