The NIHSS is a staff-assessed, 15 item, standardized, disease-specific, deficit scale which measures neurological impairment and is used to quantify participant status by measuring the severity of the stroke. The total NIHSS score ranged from 0 (No impairment) to 42 (severe impairment). Approximately 15 minutes were needed to complete the NIHSS. The NIHSS will be collected as part of the eligibility requirements to exclude participants who have a deficit that is either too mild or too severe. Only NIHSS certified study personnel recorded the NIHSS. Baseline assessments were recorded at Day 1 of the study. The change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual post-randomization values. If either the Baseline or post-randomization value was missing, the change from Baseline was set to missing as well.

BBS is a performance based measure of balance. It is reliable, valid and responsive to change in the stroke population. BBS is a staff-assessed measure that requires the participant to perform 14 activities that evaluate ability to maintain balance. The BBS typically takes 10-15minute to complete. Participants were not allowed to use assistive devices while performing the activities. Each activity was evaluated by direct observation of the participant's performance and was scored on a 5-point ordinal scale (0-4) where a score of 0 represents inability to perform the activity and a score of 4 represents independence in the activity. The minimum total score on the BBS was 0 and maximum was 56. Baseline assessments were recorded at Day 5 of the study. The change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual post-randomization values. If either the Baseline or post-randomization value was missing, the change from Baseline was set to missing as well.

Grip strength is an objective measure of arm motor recovery in stroke participants and correlate with functional status and predict recovery. Grip strength was evaluated by a hand grip dynamometer. Three replicate trials was collected for both the impaired and normal hand, starting with the normal hand. Each trial was separated by a resting period of approximately 15-30 seconds. Participants was instructed to squeeze as hard as possible while using a standardized position of grip and the resulting dynamometer reading (in kg) was recorded. The grip strength measures was conducted within approximately 5 minutes. Baseline assessments were recorded at Day 1 of the study. The change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual post-randomization values. If either the Baseline or post-randomization value was missing, the change from Baseline was set to missing as well.

The FM assessment is a staff-assessed, disease specific, quantitative measure of impairment that is used to assess recovery of sensorimotor function post stroke. The FM is designed to assess the domains of motor function, balance, sensation and joint function. For this study, only the motor function domain was assessed. The motor domain scale takes approximately 30 minutes to complete and evaluates both the upper and lower extremities by direct observation of the participant's performance of 50 items that measure movement, coordination, and reflex action. Each item was scored from 0-2 for a minimum total score of 0 (hemiplegia) and a maximum total score of 100 (normal motor performance). Baseline assessments were recorded at Day 5 of the study. The change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual post-randomization values. If either the Baseline or post-randomization value was missing, the change from Baseline was set to missing as well.

TMS is an electrophysiological technique that was used to measure neurologic changes associated with recovery from stroke via alterations in the excitability of the motor system. Motor threshold measures reflect global excitability of the corticospinal pathway, including large pyramidal cells, excitatory/inhibitory interneurons, and spinal motorneurons. Motor threshold was recorded as the lowest stimulus intensity (in percent) eliciting motor evoked potentials (MEPs). Baseline assessments were recorded at Day 1 of the study. The change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual post -randomization values. If either the Baseline or post-randomization value was missing, the change from Baseline was set to missing as well.
