Zapping nerves through skin: early trial aims to restore movement after paralysis
NCT ID NCT04755699
Summary
This early-stage study is testing whether gentle electrical stimulation applied to the skin over nerves and the spinal cord can help improve arm, hand, or leg movements in people with paralysis or weakness. Researchers are recruiting 64 adults with conditions like stroke or spinal cord injury to attend sessions up to five times a week for a year. The main goal is to see if the investigational stimulation device can safely change muscle activity and potentially help restore some functional movement.
