Zapping brain and spine together may help paralyzed hands move again
NCT ID NCT07423949
Summary
This study is testing whether combining two types of safe, non-invasive stimulation—one to the brain and one to the spinal cord—can help improve arm and hand function in people with chronic spinal cord injuries in the neck. Twenty-four participants will receive either the combined stimulation, spinal stimulation alone, or a fake stimulation while practicing hand tasks three times a week for eight weeks. The main goals are to see if the combined approach is safe and practical, and to get early signs of whether it helps with strength and movement control.
