Zapping muscles to fight ICU weakness

NCT ID NCT07362862

Summary

This study is testing a new device that sends mild electrical signals to the thigh muscles of people in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The goal is to see if using the device is safe and practical, and if it can help slow down the severe muscle weakness that often develops in critically ill patients. Researchers will compare patients receiving standard care to those who also get daily one-hour sessions with the device.
