Tiny zaps aim to steady steps for kids with cerebral palsy
NCT ID NCT05384990
Summary
This study is exploring whether a very light, unfelt electrical stimulation applied to the legs can help children and young adults with cerebral palsy maintain better balance during everyday activities like standing up, walking, and turning. Researchers are testing this approach by having participants perform tasks like getting up from a stool and walking while their balance is measured. The goal is to see if this gentle stimulation can improve stability and reduce the risk of falls.
