Freezing nerves to thaw stiff arms: new trial offers hope for spasticity

NCT ID NCT06340451

Summary

This study is testing whether a device that uses extreme cold to temporarily freeze specific nerves can safely reduce stiffness and tightness in the shoulder and elbow. About 132 adults with arm spasticity from conditions like stroke or spinal cord injury will participate. Some will get the real nerve-freezing treatment, while others will get a sham procedure for comparison, and researchers will track their muscle tightness and movement over 13 weeks.
