Zapping the brain to rewire movement after spinal injury
NCT ID NCT03892746
Summary
This study tested whether a safe, non-invasive form of brain stimulation could boost the benefits of physical therapy for arm and hand movement. People with a cervical spinal cord injury received 15 sessions of arm training paired with gentle electrical brain stimulation over several weeks. Researchers measured changes in strength, hand function, and independence in daily activities to see if this combined approach was safe and helpful.
