Plain-language summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of early rehabilitation treatment by electroencephalographic neurofeedback on upper limb motor function after stroke.
Researchers will compare :
Interventional group: electroencephalographic neurofeedback + traditional reference rehabilitation programme Control group: SHAM electroencephalographic neurofeedback + traditional reference rehabilitation programme

Inclusion Criteria:
* Unilateral ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke
* Adult (18-80 years), both sexes
* Stroke \< 3 weeks
* Upper limb deficit defined by Shoulder Abduction Finger Extension score \<5 measured during the 7 days following stroke; i.e., patients predicted to have incomplete recovery
* No participation-limiting comprehension problems
* With or without homonymous lateral hemianopia; with or without visuospatial hemineglect
* Free, informed and written consent signed by the patient or a member of the patient's family (in the case of a patient who is able to understand the information and give consent but has motor difficulties resulting in an invalid signature).
* Affiliated to french social security
Exclusion Criteria:
* Ischemic or hemorrhagic brain stem and/or cerebellum involvement
* Multiple strokes
* Stroke \< 1 week; in order not to be deleterious by starting active rehabilitation too early after immediate stroke
* Aphasia with major comprehension impairment
* Contraindication to MRI
* pacemaker or implantable defibrillator,
* neurosurgical clips,
* cochlear implants,
* intra-orbital or encephalic metallic foreign bodies,
* stents placed less than 4 weeks ago and osteosynthesis devices placed less than 6 weeks ago,
* claustrophobia. (Patients who have undergone thrombolysis or thrombectomy may be included in the study.)
