"Evaluation by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of the Benefit of Fluoxetine on Motor Recovery After Stroke"

Summary

The objective of this study is to better characterize the mechanisms of action of fluoxetine in motor recovery and more specifically to identify the neurophysiological substrate underlying fluoxetine-induced motor recovery in stroke. In this study, the investigators propose to use transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to assess the effect of a chronic treatment of fluoxetine on corticospinal excitability and integrity.
