First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a non-invasive method called sensory augmentation for people who have had a stroke at least 6 months ago and still have balance problems. Small vibrations are applied to the skin to enhance the body's natural sense of position, aiming to make standing steadier and reduce fall risk. The trial involves 36 participants and measures balance with standard clinical tests.
